I think they swapped my modem either 4 or 5 times. In the end, I ended up dropping tmobile and going to xfinity cable (fiber is not available in my neighborhood) for internet. I think my home was a little far from the nearest tmobile tower and that this was part of the tmobile problem.

My advice: Get fiber service if available. Fiber offers the best speeds and reliability. If you want to try TMobile … then consider trying it out for a month before cancelling your current service. TMobile does not require a contract and can be cancelled at any time.

I use the Roku box and remote. The remote is very simple and only has a few buttons. But if you have 4 TV’s, you would need to purchase 4 roku units.
T-mobile throttles your speed up and down all the time. I found it to be unacceptable because of this.
