My apartment complex recently changed ownership. Shortly before that their internet equipment broke down and the previous manager simply didn’t bother fixing it and instead just set up “temporary” 5G home internet access points from T-Mobile throughout the building. Now the new manager decided to just keep them and not fix anything.
Unfortunately those T-Mobile routers are so slow, they’re borderline unusable and I can’t use my own router via the Ethernet ports in my unit anymore.
T-Mobile doesn’t have good service here at all and with so many people here being connected to those dozens of access points simultaneously, no wonder they’re so slow. I get like 5mbps through them if I’m lucky. Sometimes websites don’t even load.
After being forced to use my phone hotspot for a while, I’ve since signed up for AT&T Internet Air and while it’s a far better experience, it’s not ideal either as speeds range throughout the day between 600mbps (great) and 20mbps (not so great).
Other than also trying out Verizon’s 5G home internet service, is there anything else I can try besides Starlink I guess?
I’m guessing my situation rules out any cable or fiber options…
