I'm about half a mile from a 5G tower and have been using a T-Mobile hotspot for about a month because the only telco that has run internet on my side of the street (in a town that literally has fiber 300 feet away) is AT&T, and then they only have DSL. This is in a Dallas suburb. AT&T? Nearly 90 bucks for 50Mbps down, 12 up. T-Mobile? 50 bucks 140 down, 50 up during peak times.



Cancel your T-Mobile and buy a Calyx (also using T-Mobile) and you'll be paying ~$45/mo (after hotspot device cost) and have no data cap or throttling (it's real, grandfathered contract from Clearwire)

I can do 800mbit+ on mine, symmetrical.
