5G(arbage) internet

I got sucked into the 5g internet after having horrid experience with overpriced AT&T. I live 80 feet from the TMobile cell in an urban area. I've had repeated loss of signal and buffering since Dec '24. I recently replaced the Gateway (to hell) and still suffer from the same issues. And after pointing the Gateway directly at the cell tower by tech insisting this will resolve signal issues. Anyone stating they haven't had issues must be a paid employee of T-MOBILE posting to keep their job or bucking for promotion to store assistant manager.

  • You can get the cell tower ID from the T_life app.  It could be that your assigned tower is not the one "within 80 feet".  Call TM can cross-check you tower assignment.  I live 5.7 miles from my tower (rural area), and I get quite good speeds.
