I got T-Mobile a couple weeks ago and brought it with me in my RV and cap about 100 miles away from home. It worked great, no configuration just plug in the power and a few minutes later lightning speed. I will be traveling to another direction about q00 miles away and try it there and see how it works. It was $30 a month and I was able to talk them in giving me a $150 rebate card which brings the price down to $20 a month for 15 months.
I'm on TMobile how can I get the 150.00 rebate card I need it cause my deposit is 250.00 and anything to knock it down would help me cause I'm poor and on public housing
Ive tested the Arcadyan all over AZ and parts of NM and CO..... works well on the road even at state parks in AZ and Colorado I had very good service,,,,,,,,,, give it a try
I didi the samething last night with the straight talk service. My address didn't qualify, so I picked an address about 80 miles away. Took about 10 minutes for the router to sync up and I am getting speeds of 150-170 Mbps
that's just thing they say lol. verizon said the same thing and it still works every where i take it. it would be impossible for them to lock it any way. because that isn't how these services works in general. and tmoble shares towers they don't have their own most of the time so it would be impossible for them to control that anyway i think they said this because people call with issue because they take them some where the signal is weak and don't tell the people their not at home so it becomes a bigger issue.
I have heard mixed stories where T-Mobile worked for some and others were shutoff after a while because they were using it while traveling. I have T-mobile and I am away from my home base and it works great. I get about what you did with it speed wise.
I been traveling all over Arizona and never had a problem with it. T-Mobile is for roaming with the device but have not announce it yet, it's still in the early stages before they announce it. But they are for it not against it from some insiders leaked.
@@EarlBalentine I talked to a T-Mobile tech the other night and asked about it and he said it's no problem if your using it in other states or areas. He said it's fine and to go for it.
fyi - you can get a t mobile gateway with external antenna connectors. with an external antenna you could probably get reliable service at your house by pointing it towards the closest tower
I heard while both can work away from home base, Verizon throttles the speed if you are away from the home address. Maybe that's why your Verizon is much slower than Tmobile in that location.
I'm curious: if you pick a random address, how did you receive the device? Or, for that matter, wouldn't your billing information be sent to the random address?
Just to add some clarity to this: During sign-up, you'll need to provide two addresses: one for billing and shipping, and another for where you'll actually use the service. While you can technically enter any address within the service area, it's not recommended. Here's why: they might use geolocation to verify your device's location. If it doesn't match the service address, they could cancel your service or switch you to a more expensive roaming plan.
The party is over for TMHI users. T-Mobile is sending out violation of T&C notices to people who use the Gateway outside of the fixed address they signed up with.
@@gutWrench9mm Most hwy large cell towers might be able to reach 25-45 miles. It also depends on what type of receiving antenna you have, a cell phone internal antenna or a large 4'X' foot cell external cell phone antenna.
You will get service where ever there is cell service. The antennas on the gateway are stronger than the one on your phone. So if your cell phone has service at the North Pole then your internet service will work too. Check the carriers coverage map. On the main US interest highways cell phone antennas are place several miles apart, I sure at some marina there might be an antenna pointing out to the water but that all depends on the location. Here's a tip though, a new iPhone 14 has satellite service built into it for 911 emergency calls. So you would have the ability to call 911 from a canoe on the Amazon river.
My brother-in-law lives across the street has no desire to have this internet but my address says no and his address says yes wondering if we could get this to work at our house using his address but we would have to put the account in his name because they said it has to match what's on your driver's license
@@jqworks And the shipping address can be different too. I ordered using my son address in another city, my billing address is my home address where the unit is not available and I had it shipped to my home address. It is up and quaking right now at my home address. I plan on taking it with mw on my RV trips out of town and state.
I used my son's address and he lives in another city. I called T-Mobile and told them their website say I can have the service at that address. They check his address and said yes your qualify. I told them I am paying for my son's internet service. They said ok, what address do you want for the billing and I gave them my home address. They then ask what address do you want to ship to and I gave them my address. My son's address is file as the location for use. Instead I use it in my RV in another city and then I travel to other states. Going to southeast TX next month.
Really late response here, but yes it will. I travel with a crew across country and we set T-Mobile's on the front dash and it works really fast all over. Low enough latency that one of my guys can play his PS5 at home remotely from his phone while we're traveling 80mph. He connects to the wifi cause he's on Mint Mobile so his data is capped.
@@EarlBalentine Thanks, yea I checked and Verizon has 5G UW in parts of Havana and el malecón. They have 5G nationwide in the countryside areas and cities like Pinar Del Río, Varadero, and Santiago De Cuba.
You better ask T Mobile.. They will send you a bill for $400.00 and cut your service if you start moving these around. As it does phone home to what tower your locked too.. If it knows your changing towers all the time. You will get a big surprise..
Ok but what if your just moving down the street? I shouldn’t have to ask should i? They did ask for my address to check availability so that’s why I’m wondering. The cell tower should be the same..right?
I havent seen a single thing about that and dont imagine they could even legally penalize you like that besides cutting your service so can you provide a source
@@hermlozano6561 Third party stores say that but T Mobile will not, because these things are NOT mobile. So far general experience has indicated TMobile is not enforcing this, but they can at any time because it is in their terms. It is so specific that even a couple doors down may or may not work.

Truck driver here..Im all over the country with mine. I usually use it in decent size cities. It always works great.
Thank you sir, just needed someone to confirm this before making the purchase. Putting one in my truck ASAP!
Is that with the Verizon modem?
What's your speeds
Which service/router, T-Mobile/verizon are you using I’m looking to get one for the truck as well??
Verizon works while mobile confirmed. I'm trying to find out about T-Mobile tho.

@coreybabcock2023 they have 150bgivecard offer or tv after 2 months of service
Yes you can travel with it I did last October going to Rochester MN and back to Rockville MD using the arcadyn modem

Keep in mind that T-Mobile Gateway is unlimited data and that Verizon may be $5 cheaper per month it does have a limit cap on data.
Verizon price is for 2 years. TMobile price is for---ever.
False
Verizon does not have a cap.
They must have recently removed the cap to keep up with T-Mobile.

I travel with my tmobile one from NYC to TX. Works for years now. But They won't add me a 3rd line. I have 2 lol.
I'm trying the T-Mo right now. The sales person said you cited take it with you when you travel. Is writing fine at home.
I played call of duty very well in a 18 wheeler with that T-Mobile one
not anymore folks tmobile just announced they are gps locking it to the adress activation since it has a gps on it. sucks

look up faraday cage. A roof mount antenna would help
did you have to connect the tmobile modem at the service address before it worked at a different location?
I go camping with the Verizon and it's working just fine
The party is over for TMHI users. T-Mobile is sending out violation of T&C notices to people who use the Gateway outside of the fixed address they signed up with.
How are the speeds or does it even work at all while in motion?
Does anyone know if the truck is moving?
The tmobile overheats and can break the device causing errors.. needs to be cooled.. id say like 80 degree max is safe
Would this work on a sailboat to get internet and TV?
That made me laugh . But maybe
you can get cell reception in the middle of the ocean? backyard sailing maybe...

I had to use an alternative address when I set it up. Your service address and billing address can be different.
T mobile YES YOU CAN
@@jqworks Correct! These are not location bound

love the thumbnail 😍
I’ve been using T-Mobile while traveling it works great but starting May 8 2024 it going up in price to 160.00 dollars 😮 2:35
it was great while it lasted, but the party will be mostly over. I mean you can still do it if you want to pay 160$. least for the Tmobile version.
T-Mobile hates people who live on the road lol. Enjoy paying $160 even though making the service mobile costs them literally nothing more.
Im trying to find out does it work while in motion. If im driving the RV and the kids are in the back will they be able to still get a signal?

I went from Houston to Pennsylvania and T-Mobile worked the entire way 450mbps. I get 650+ at home
Never had to reset my arcadyn and the sagecom has a power button on the back
My T-Mobile has been actually good. I have a crappy laptop but it boosted up a lot mo bet ah
I got the tmobile will it work in mexico
Its not n24 its n25 the hint control app reports it back
I was told by T Mobil you will get charge in ROAMING !!!!
Do they mail you the box or do you pick it up in person?
Did u find the answer for it bro?
What is the speed of the down load it's fast don't
Only if you live in a mobile home.
Will these work if I take them with me to Cuba?
If Cuba has Verizon or T-Mobile there then yes.Look at the coverage map of your cell service.

No
Can I take out the SIM card from the router and put it into my phone? So I don't need to bring the router with me when traveling. Will it work?
I don’t believe it will function the same if you move the SIM card.
