Re: Tmobile home internet bleeding data?
henry51 wrote: @ChefZiggy, have you tried checking your TMO account?https://www.t-mobile.com/usage/details Yes I did and even that wasn't accurate, it said I had used 100 GB, but in the data usage section it showed only 96 used at the time.. (and this was me checking 4 days after it said I reached my 100 GB limit...) but 4K HD movies and shows only use up about 1 GB an hour of data, but if TMobile has me burning through 5 GB + in under an hour, with only the one device connected and no other downloads happening, there is something very wrong going on..12Visto1like0ComentariosTmobile home internet bleeding data?
since after 9 months of being on waiting list unlimited TMobile internet is still not available, they convinced me to try the 100 GB a month plan. Anyone else finding they are being lied to about the data being used?? It said I went through 100 GB in under a week and I was only watching shows on Netflix and Crunchyroll, only 1 device connected, no additional downloads... and according to T-Mobile texts from the time it texted me I was at 95% to the time it texted me I used 100% data was only 20 minutes.. there is no way I watched 5 gigs worth of movie/show in 20 minutes, even HD 4k takes about 1 hours per GB used... and then I go to the data usage section on T-Mobile it says I used all 100 GB, but further down the page it shows only 96 GB was used.. and now that I'm using low speed, it's even slower then low speed tethering from my phone.. (TMobile internet low speed is 2G .. TMobile phone tethering low speed is 3G ... 3 G you can still watch Netflix and amazon video, 2G you can't even get passed the log in page)Re: 5G Home Internet nightly slow down

While our signal as always read "Weak" it was fine early a.m. and day--but come 6 pm. and the slowness and literally stopage begins. Don't even get me started on the football games!!I feel like "you get what you pay for" with this. I have spent countless hours moving this thing around---I think my first clue was when our address did not even show on the T Mobile finder. Talking to friends I take the phone off Wi-fi as cellular does not break up. Each time I call T Mobile I get the reply "plug, unplug"-right. However I finally reached a rep who told me they would be getting new towers---when I asked when she said 4th Qtr 2024!!!! Why the heck is T Mobile selling these knowing they have overloaded the area--this is why the lowprice. Looking at Verizon's new tower online I got the message they are not offering in this area until they have adequate coverage. We will be returning the tower this weekend. When I see how many are affected and how long this has been going on it really tells me who TMobile is. NOT customer oriented that is for sure. So I finally got a tech that knew what they were doing, once she force pushed the firmware update it started working again, haven't had the nightly issue since it got pushed and installed, going on about a week now..5Visto1like0ComentariosRe: 5G Home Internet nightly slow down
So It seems a lot of people are having this same issue where their home internet goes down or almost out 1 to 2 hours every night regardless of daily use, or restarting system.. same for me typically 8pm ish to 930pm ish my home internet drops off nightly, and no one at T-Mobile seems to have an answer other then the same line by line response of (restarting, better placement, higher floors, ext.) Which if that was the issue it would be constantly and not just at around the same timeframe every day5Visto1like0Comentarios
