T-Mobile provides 5G home internet, which is one of the newest and fastest wireless internet technologies. 5G is cellular technology, but its high speeds make it a great way to deliver wireless home internet. However, these high speeds are not available across T-Mobile’s entire nationwide footprint.

To reach into less densely populated areas, 5G providers use multiple bands of radio frequencies to maximize the number of households they can reach. This accounts for the wide range of advertised speeds you see advertised with 5G Home internet. Customers in rural areas will get speeds toward the lower end of that advertised range, while those in urban areas that are closer to 5G infrastructure will get higher speeds.

Google Fiber offers fiber-to-the-home internet. Fiber technology is the backbone of the entire internet, and Google Fiber uses that same technology to connect your home to that core network. In addition to being the fastest internet option available, fiber has low latency, which is good for video chat and online games, and high upload speeds, which is good for streamers and other content creators.
