5g Hone Internet and Gaming

If you are using the T-Mobile home internet mobile application you can view and record the cellular metrics for the 4G LTE and 5G NR  signals. With the values you can see how well your signal is received and how strong it is and how clean it is. If you can improve that some with location then your “ping” latency values may be improved some. An external antenna that improves the signal quality will help. 

You can ping major DNS servers and use speedtest.net and fast.com to compare responses. The ping utility uses ICMP protocol to relay the messages that reflect the latency of the communication. Waveform has some excellent external antennas and very helpful engineers. There are other solutions as well for external antennas. Getting information from experts like Waveform is a good path. If you are on the n71 or n41 band then the cost associated with the external antenna solution has a good spread. The 2X2 MIMO vs the 4X4 MIMO antenna solution depends upon the band received. It is not a cheap solution but well it can quite possibly improve matters.
