In March 2019, T-Mobile announced that they have started to test home Internet services using LTE. At the time, T-Mobile limited the test to 50,000 customers. Recently T-Mobile promised if the merger happened, they would roll it out nationwide. Now that the merger has been approved, look for this to become a reality soon.

This new service will offer 50 Mbps home Internet (due to “LTE network and spectrum capacity constraints”) for $50 a month with no data cap. T-Mobile is quick to add that the new 5G home Internet service will be far faster when it launches. According to T-Mobile, this service comes with no annual contracts, no data caps, no hidden fees, no price hikes, and no hardware costs.

This is part of three initiatives new T-Mobile promised would happen after the Sprint/T-Mobile merger.

Connecting Heroes Initiative , a 10-year commitment to provide FREE 5G access—unlimited talk, text and smartphone data—to EVERY public and non-profit U.S. state and local police, fire, and EMS agency

This could be an excellent option for Americans living in rural areas with limited Internet options. Now we just have to wait and see when T-Mobile will follow through on their promises.
