Finally Fast Internet


Well, this is the day we have been waiting for for almost 13 years since we moved into this house - we finally have fast internet!

When we moved to our house the only thing that was available was CenturyLink DSL (which I think was Qwest at the time). CenturyLink DSL was terribly slow but it had the advantage of being the only thing available for us! 

Then, about a year and a half ago, a T-Mobile store employee talked me into trying T-Mobile home internet. I was sure it was not going to work for us, but I was - happily - wrong. We went from a speed of about 3 or 4 Mbps to 30-50 Mbps, and occasionally more. It has been a lifesaver for our family over the past year and we've been generally quite pleased with it, although we've maxed out the speeds at our location.

However now that Midco cable has finally brought fiber to our house we are looking at speeds much greater (and more consistent) than what T-Moble 5G was able to offer. 

I'm still very, very thankful for T-Mobile Home Internet. I'd highly recommend it to anyone without a fiber or cable option. The T-Mobile people have always been great to work with. Plus at only $50 a month, it is very reasonable.
