If it's the T-Mobile TV Service on the T-Mobile 'hotspot' Does it not
count towards the datacap? Don't I see TVads for T-mobile that like
Netflix or hulu or something doesn't count against your data because
it's 'included'.

It’s beginning to look like they actually have the 50 Mbps for $50
T-Mobile Home Internet, I see other places where they talk about
typical speeds being 25 Mbps. Unclear if there is no data cap, or if
its gets “deprioritized” when you use too much in a month, or at peak
usage times, or relative to mobile users, or is truly unlimited data.
The mobile industry usually takes some liberties when advertising
speeds and with the term “unlimited data”.
I talked with a computer tech who has a T-Mobile tower literally in
his back yard, he said he got 25 Mbps speed and had a 50 GB/mo data
allocation. I assumed he has a mobile hotspot, but maybe it’s this.
If T-Mobile/Sprint markets this heavily in exurban and rural areas, it
could cause a lot of trouble for WISPs. Especially if they are
marketing it as a bundle with an alternative to cable and satellite
TV, including local channels. I find the high cost of DISH and
DirecTV satellite Internet is the major thing driving customer
decisions these days.

Yeah I was gonna say a soft disconnect seems warranted in this case
because they're going to call you right back.

I am confused, can someone enlighten me?
Customer says he is cancelling because his wife signed up for
T-Mobile TV and they said you had to get their Internet. I
did a Google search and found a service called TVision which
launched a year ago and was based on T-Mobile’s acquisition of
Layer3 TV. But the articles from April 2019 talked about it
using your existing wired broadband.
I still see traffic on this customer’s connection, so I am
wondering if he has really switched to T-Mobile Internet.
Does this T-Mobile TV service come with its own Internet? And
is that whole house Internet, or just for the IPTV service?
