It has been just over a year after its launch and T-Mobile’s 5G Home Internet service has really taken off. The carrier announced that it now has 1 million customers on their $50 per month (with autopay) internet plan. They’ve also expanded the service’s availability from 30 million “eligible households” to 40 million. You can check if the service is available in your area here.
According to the press release details, T-Mobile added more broadband customers than any other provider in the country during the fourth quarter of 2021. The company expects to have 7 to 8 million fixed wireless customers by 2025.
T-Mobile 5G Home Internet provides access to T-Mobile’s 5G network through a router that converts the signal to Wi-Fi. Typical download speeds are 35-115 Mbps according to T-Mobile’s website.
CEO Mike Sievert said the fast growth of the T-Mobile 5G Home Internet “underscores how hungry customers are for a real alternative to the Carriers and the Landline ISPs.” Per T-Mobile, growing its home internet solution to 1 million users over the last year has made it the “fastest growing broadband provider in America.”
T-Mobile also offers 5G Business Internet plans for small companies with up to 20 employees as well as an enterprise solution.
Verizon has also begun rolling out an updated version of its own $50 per month, 5G broadband option. In February, they announced that this service is available to over 30 million households.
