AFFORDABLE High Speed Internet Anywhere - My RURAL INTERNET Setup Revealed!!

Hi I just got a new g-5 T mobile where do i hook external antenna wires up at. Its a 4x4 MIMO Waveform. please help

agreed I have the same tmobile router, got the waveform for black Friday. I now have 400 down 20s to 40s up

My current situation is I moved into a rural area over Thanksgiving weekend. I have DSL 3mbps or T-Mobile home internet. I decided to go with t mobile. It's picking up 2-11mbps and if you know anything , that doesn't even stream Netflix on my smart TV hardly lol. I bought a 70db booster. I'm going to install it this weekend when it arrives. I hope it works! I am hoping to get enough so I can play my games and uploading stuff. Especially now that I've got a workshop. Wish me luck! It's not the same booster setup you have, but I hope it works!!

Put a laser pointer on the router!!

Can you donate your starlink to me? Im in Hudson , New York!

I love my DSL from Century. It’s far more reliable than Cox and I really haven’t had an issue with download or streaming.

@SilverCymbal
Thanks for your great content and analysis.
Do you have any updates for us now that you have had a year+ with your Fixed Cellular Internet setup?
My new house is in the middle of nowhere. I have Fiber Optic cable but it is constantly going out for days at a time. We are one of the last 20 houses on our connection. So, we are the last ones served or serviced when there is a problem.

I like to see how you hook up the T-Mobile internet to the antenna/dish so I can do mine. I have the T-Mobile internet and I love it. just one day I am going RV life

I’ve watched many videos on rural internet since moving to a mountain property two months ago. This is BY FAR the best one I’ve seen! Thank you for posting and very thorough!

I'm an online gamer and this video was very helpful. Love your channel!

It’s so interesting how different it is for everyone! For me, Starlink has consistent 25/28ms pings!

I got T-mobile home internet about a year ago. At that time it worked great, 250mbps down, 30mbps up, much better than the comcast I had been using. In recent months though it has gotten much slower and sometimes is just intermittent. I have a suspicion that cell tower congestion might be an issue. Probably more people on T-mobiles 5G network now and they may need to add more cell tower capacity. I’m still mostly happy with it because as an addition to our cell service account it’s only $30/mo. which is probably impossible to beat. Thanks for the video.

Show us how you mounted and weather proofed the router

The title states MEG, but in as much as there's a significant difference between a MEGA-BYTE and a MEGA-BIT. 400 MEG though more than 400 KB let alone 400 Kb may not, depending on one's purpose, be sufficent. I'm a video playing gamer. The area I live in has contract's they state are MEGA'S. But in actuallity, their plan's are actuall Mega-Bit's not MEGA-Byte's. Meaning one may think there getting something 8 times more. But actually getting something 8 times less. But advertiser's and even those that sell the various plan's in which MEGA is utilzed, don't know the vast difference in what they selling. MB vs Mb is eight times different. Much in the same way, as in the old day;s when KB was eight time that of Kb. One Mb is equal to that of 1,000 KB or 8,000 Kb. one MB is eight times that of one Mb.

So listen to the various sale's pitches, using your calulator before signing a contract that states it offer's more MEGA's than it's competion. And don't forget, that the actuall speed you will get is that measure recived in your router, the wifi portioin of your router which use to be a separted device, but now is include in the routher. is only capable of transmitting half of the total the router has available. And if having more than one device using the wifi. Devide the one half by the number of device.

Example you pay for and receive to the router 100 MB which when multiplied by 8 is 800 Mb. Thus using the ethernet jack's on the back of the router, which generally is four. All four of the various device's one can utilze will have access to 100 MB each. However, because the incorporation of the wifi being included rather than the old day's a separte device. It still only is able to transmit half of the total available to one device being utilzed. If there are more such as two cell phone, a TV, one of those new fancy refrigerator's, a security system. The total of device's being 5, cause the 100 the router receive's, sends to the wifi, which only get's half thus 50, divided by the 5 device's. Each device is only able to access 10 of the 50 of the 100 your paying for. The more device's one add's to their router's wifi ability. Mean's eventually one won't have sufficent enough to operate a particual device and will have to purchase a booster or increase their plan to a higher speed.

My dsl was over 20mbs dn and 10 to 12 up. Just had to port the router correctly.

DSL loses fewer packets, much better if packet loss matters for your application

All I found out from this was to get an antenna. Nothing bout a service provider. 😭

I remember when DSL was the best option! Sigh…

How did you set up the four antenna with the t mobile device

I have at&t fixed home wireless and it SUCKS, I'm lucky at times of I can even get 1mbs

What UPS device have you got there. Looks pretty nice... Also, is that AX1000 modem with the cover off .. do you use it, as far as having a 4G/5G Sim card in there? Did you add more wires in it?

How do you get a good signal through all those trees?

@Silver did you order the T-Mo service at a service address approved for 5g and then take it to your rural address? I plugged in my remote address and its not a service area for 5g, It is for 4g.

Thank you for sharing this. I react ( intolerant to electromagnetic frequencies ), so have to navigate a protected or remote living arrangement with ethernet connections. Vaccine compliant people will soon find themselves reacting the same way to high density wifi. With what you've shared here, I can see a way to continue my business from where ever I reside. 🌻

Those video cuts almost every single sentence are making this video really hard to watch.

So T-Mobile home internet is better and cheaper option than Starlink?

Yup step outside using your phone and network cell info app to see signal strength and just hunt around the house looking at the RSRP, RSRQ and RSSNR values. Remember to get on a ladder and check above roof height as well. Record the screen with audio notes to tell you where you are measuring the signal.
Good RSRP is greater than -87dBm ( all values are negative)
Good RSRQ is greater than -10dB ( all values are negative )
Good RSSNR is greater than 10dB. Great values are >20dB.

But in lots of areas, there are enough cell phones to cause the tower services to shift at different times of the day. Your signal could be ok in the morning and tank at lunch and 6 or 7pm. That's because internet via cellular has an obligation to cater first to phone services.

WHAT AFFORDABLE INTERNET DEVICE DO YOU RECOMMEND FOR RV TRAVEL ? THANK YOU FOR ALL THE GREAT INFO:)

Great info! Are you in the Catskills? It's a lovely location!

BUT what about the rural areas marked as “”DEAD ZONE””” by Tmobile and Verizon?? No cell service in Rural HALIFAX COUNTY, VA!!

Great advice, thanks a million Sir!!!!

Do you have any suggestions on cheaper antenna setups??

NO COMMERCIALS! Show me what you use and who you pay and how to set it up!

A video of how you connected to the T-Mobile device would be nice!!

Do antenna's hold up through storms-- snow, ice, wind, etc.?

Can you do a follow up video? Are you still using t mobile?

Would this be good to use in a RV

Can you show where on the device that you plugged in the antennae?

The problem with DSL speeds in the states has nothing to do with the technology itself and everything to do with how horribly unmaintained our phone lines are.

Will this work if you are traveling in an RV camper? Traveling across the US. What is the best cheapest solution if you are in the woods or desert area. Etc.

I have T-Mobile 5G Home Internet at my house in the city. The tower is about 1 block away. I get 150/10 speeds on a consistent basis.

I have a simple question! This might be a stupid question, but I have no experience with this sort of stuff, so, like, these antennae are water/storm proof, right? You said it needed to be outside, but run in to your modem, well it can stay outside for storms and will still work in snow and stuff, right?
ALSO, just out of curiosity, do you have to worry about T-Mobile sometimes throttling your service? Not a deal killer, but I would just like to know! Thanks!!

Will a VHF/UHF TV antenna work?

Tier 4 install tech here... Wireless Broadband that we offer is capable of up to 200x30 and our tech reaches out 10+ miles. I can get you installed in under an hour 💪💪

I don't think your assessment is accurate that the panel antenna is less directional in general. The other antenna appears to be a Yagi and are usually less gain and directional that a nice panel antenna.

My towers are couple miles away and get like 20 down 3 up mac

I wonder if it could be used mobile

Wave form also offers a 2x2. Is the difference the amount of peripherals?
