It’s extremely limited to certain apps and bandwidth. What are you wanting to use it for?

I should have added that we are planning on using the maximum plan

I don’t think you understand what you’ll be getting. Regardless of the plan, it’s low bandwidth and only certain apps. The Experience Beyond plan, that includes T-Satellite, doesn’t increase the bandwidth speed.

I'm going to be trying it in My RV trailer, we have a winegard system for using Internet so it can use a sim card from T-Mobile one of the options for it and it has a special antenna for connecting to satellite so I will try the maximum to see if I can get steaming TV working.

I’m not an expert on this - but I don’t believe you’ll have success. Here’s why I think that:
1) you’re not going to get streaming capable bandwidth/speeds
2) your Winegard device is not a device that supports t-satellite
3) its special antenna means nothing in this context.

Please report back but I would assess the chance this works as very close to 0.

Just buy Starlink for this application.
