T-Mobile's regular hotspot is only 70kbps and really does NOT qualify to even being labeled a hotspot. The old dialup was faster on a modem. I have a hotspot on Straight Talk that measures over 30 Mbps. That's really embarrassing, T-Mobile.
Hi Chris:I have the Samsung Galaxy Note8 and I have full-strength signal bars sitting in my home. There is no way I can even think about using it to run my computer or even my iPad. I have the 55+ plan with standard hotspot. It won't work with Firefox or Chrome. In my opinion, the standard hotspot should not even be called a hotspot as it does not function. I am in Thousand Oak, California and the phone and data work fine.I still have my Straight Talk hotspot and I guess I'll need to keep it. Occasionally I need it to stay connected while sitting an open house that is vacant with no Internet. I am really disappointed. I just switched to T-Mobile last week in anticipation of a trip to Rome, Italy in July.
Hi Chris:I am aware of the One Plus availability. However, if T-Mobile is advertising that a hotspot is included with the 55+ plan, be real about it. The highest that would register on the speed test is a lot closer to zero than 512 kbps. I was not able to accomplish anything with 70 kbps. T-Mobile should not offer it as it might as well NOT be available. That is shamefully low and worthless.
