T Mobile 5G Gateway - Is it good for online gaming?

In this video, we discuss our experience with the T-Mobile 5G gateway and gaming online. Our perspective is unique as we live in rural US and our T-Mobile 5G signal is not that great.

I have used quite a few of these in my business to solve customer problems. I'm getting up to 400 down but varies and is usually well over but I make sure radio in optimal location. Find the tower look for path of least RF resistance. And I have taken the unit apart and installed connections for external antennas. Not for the weak but works great. Radios do need to be rebooted once in a while so look out for remote locations...get automatic reboot system.
The higher the signal the better. If logged into the device with a laptop there are many different digital readout maybe with the helpful in correct placement.

I use this for online gaming in my semi truck. It only drops when I'm in extremely remote areas but for 50 it's great.

I just returned my TMOBILE modem, in the evening all I could get was 2 MBP, not enough to stream the evening news, quite frustrating !!

I had T-Mobile 5G Home Internet, was only getting mostly 12-20Mbps. Then tried US Cellular and was getting 4G speeds only 99% of the time. Then the other day I found out VZW 5G Home Internet launched in my area. Got the Plus version and getting 295Mbps to a little over 300Mbps, some times a bit slower but not by much.

I pay $150 a month and it’s total dog shit for gaming the ping and latency is horrendous

[Gunsofwyo]

Where I live I get over 500-600mbps download speeds and 9-10 mbps upload speeds with t-mobile. I live in the state of Wyoming so bring options are more limited I’m tempted to go with t mobile because coverage is good where I live.

I have mine in the same room and still lagg

[CECE]

Yeah, Baby, the T-Mobile coverage is very good, and reliable. ..

Very honest review. It won't stay connected for me in bf2042. I never had any drops with cable. If you play fps games it's a no. I was getting 25 to 33 ping which is ok for fps but the frequent server disconnects when I'm in the same room as the gateway on the 2nd floor by the window is unacceptable. 5g overall sucks

[redp]

it sucks can’t have 2 consoles in a partytogether

[maxibloxia]

I have it and it just randomly started being so terrible

I have had this tmobile 5g router since beginning of September and whenever I try to play games during the day it is unbearably laggy, some titles are better and some are worse in terms of lag. 11pm-12am is when the connection is stable enough to play but there is still jitters. I live in the metro area of Boston though so idk why its this way. I am going to buy a ethernet cable and see if that clears up the issues. During the night, 40-60 ping is my average on CSGO but during the day its over 100. Only playable games during the day are fortnite and rust.

I have the same gateway, I get about 700 mbs and pay COD with ease. Highly recommend

My experience with this T mobile internet is that it is amazing for streaming movies and shows but… it is dog water for gaming. Especially when I’m trying to play Mortal Kombat 1 online. There is so much lag it’s not even funny. It runs decent when I play Fortnite and Overwatch but any competitive games, yeah good luck playing.

[sepulvjl]

I mainly wanna use it for Animal Crossing New Horizons and other online games like Mario Kart 8! will this work for me? im in Brooklyn NYC
