    I have a friend with an RV who has been using the T-Mobile Home Internet service for ~2 years now. Initially they suffered the same issues as you appear to be having with Verizon but now his service is significantly improved. This is in the Central Florida area so of course the results can vary wildly based on location.

    I have been using the T-Mobile gateway for over a year dedicated to my RV as I travel all over the southwest with excellent speeds. I only pay $30 per month. T-Mobile claims they will be shutting down the RV's and truckers that roam the country with their gateway. So far so good.

      @EarlBalentine great price! Yeah satisfied so far. Fingers crossed they don't stop it because it is nice to be able to move around with the internet without being bound to one location.

      It's people like that break the terms of service and the rest of us have to flip the bill. I'm glad to see the away plan and the cracking down on Internet Hogs. 160 is ok but should be higher for these guys. I don't use much data but still have to pay 50 a month something very wrong in Denmark . 73 ​@@JamesUnveiled

      @ronb6182 yeah luckily there are plans that are for traveling. Starlink is a good option. I'm pretty stationary right now for work so pulling these speeds for remote work is a game changer. Thanks for the comment Ron, hope prices get better.

      @@JamesUnveiled yeah and people like me should not have to pay those outrageous prices. I barely use 10 gigs a month I should never be throttled. But these guys using over 100 gigs get away with paying only 30 a month which is the major cause of tower congestion. Well when I move I will have cable internet which is 30 a month and no throttling. Also free wifi all over the country. 73

    I just got the minimum plan on Verizon in Nashville for back to my ATT fiber because I work from home. It has worked great and if I disconnect my fiber it kicks over quickly. I get max about 300 up and down so plenty for work and TV.

      @WilkieBarth not sure in my case since I'm in an rv. But I know with the home internet you get from tmobile there is an upgrade package that comes with like a range booster you put at a farther part in your house and it extends the range. That might be a good alternative/addition.

    You can’t port forward with T-Mobile or put the gateway into bridge mode, so you can’t host certain services.

    • @JamesUnveiled
      @JamesUnveiled  23 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @stevec9669 i don't believe operating system will effect the devices ability to provide internet. And if there is a situation where a device can't connect to a 5.0 ghz wireless signal, you can have the device emit a 2.4ghz as well. I know I have a few devices that will only connect to that and not the 5 ghz. Hope this helps answer your question.

    I know someone who has T-Mobile home internet and their speed was 0.2 mbps up and down which is slower than a T1, they switched to a starlink and got 75 up and down.

    • @JamesUnveiled
      @JamesUnveiled  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @hilo2-est3-elev yeah, it's tough to figure out because location plays such a big part. If you're really remote I've heard starlink is a better option, but it's going to cost you a lot more at the start for the equipment. So it's a trade off. Best you can do is check the signal strength for each provider and see what you come up with.

    Good video Thanks. I have T-Mobile & pay $60 month with Auto Pay. My Router stays on 3 bars & some times 2 bars when busy Wifi. I hate the buffering I get from watching TH-cam videos. What causes that to happen. I have 100 GB Data, do not have their cell service. Thinking about AT&T fiber for consistency to end Buffering & low wifi competing with others. I did put my own Ethernet cable on the Router which maybe why 3 bars stay somewhat consistent until others jump on wifi. Any thought on Fiber (AT&T)?

    • @JamesUnveiled
      @JamesUnveiled  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @MacCurtisHolisticHealthTalk I am sure any fiber service is going to deliver better speed sor consistency since tmobile is mobile interent and is using the cell network which is subject to busy times. If you go that route please comment back and let me know results!

    Are these devices dependent on the same towers as cell phones? So, if I have a great signal strength with my Verizon or T-Mobile phone, I should expect the same with these devices?

    • @JamesUnveiled
      @JamesUnveiled  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      To my understanding they use the same towers. So if you're getting good speeds on your phone for either tmobile or Verizon you should expect your gateway to get good speeds as well. Usually much better because it is a device designated for internet. Let me know if you have any more questions. Have a good rest of your day.
