Any one using T-Mobile home internet here?

Thoughts on them, both from a customer service perspective and quality of product?

I'm seriously thinking of cancelling my comcast internet and getting this.

I've been having problems with comcast these past few months. I was paying/getting about 900Mbs but then it dropped down to 550Mbs. Lately I'm seeing 250Mbs, maybe 300Mbs in early mornings/evenings, during the day that speed drops to about 90Mbs (and even slower) and that's painful.

I think its my neighbor (or even neighbors), he revamped his home network with separate lines for video cameras and home internet. Since then my broadband has plummeted. His kids play a lot of games online (4 boys each with their own pc/console), and I suspect that may also be a cause, i.e., summer vacation.

Anyways, I need something a bit more consistent and wanted to hear some feedback from any T-Mobile home internet customers. I have an older Orbi mesh network (RBR50), how does the 5G gateway/Mesh extender compare to that? Any suggestions or complaints or gotchas I need to worry about
