Subject: How to Choose Between T-Mobile 5G Home Internet and the
Competition
Cell phone companies want to be your high-speed internet service
provider at home. Is it worth ditching your cable, satellite, or
fiber-optic service?
By Melanie Pinola
The premise is simple: You’re already paying your wireless carrier for
mobile data, so why not use the same company for your home internet,
too, and potentially get a discount?
If, like many other people, you’re dissatisfied with the value or
service you get from your current internet service provider (ISP),
switching to 5G home internet service—also known as fixed wireless
internet service or fixed wireless access (FWA)—could be an improvement.

Subject: T-Mobile is Driving a 'Make Xfinity Your Ex' Billboard
Truck Around Comcast
T-Mobile is driving a billboard truck around the Comcast Center that
reads 'Make Xfinity Your Ex' in a stunt to advertise its 5G Home
Internet service.
Comcast is increasing its Internet prices nationwide by an average of
3.8% starting today, December 20th. T-Mobile is taking advantage of
the moment, offering to pay off Xfinity contracts and provide 5G
Internet to switchers for just $25/month.

Subject: Verizon Wireless enters Consent Decree with FCC
The Enforcement Bureau of the Federal Communications Commission has
entered into a Consent Decree to resolve its investigation into
whether Cellco Partnership d/b/a Verizon Wireless (Verizon Wireless)
constructed wireless facilities without complying with the Commission’s
environmental and historic preservation rules, including rules
implementing the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) and
the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA).
...
To settle this matter, Verizon Wireless
(i) admits that it violated the Commission’s environmental and
historic preservation rules by prematurely constructing wireless
facilities prior to completing the required environmental or
historical reviews and by constructing wireless facilities
without onsite monitoring as requested by the affected tribes
(ii) will implement a robust compliance plan to ensure that it does
not violate these rules in the future, and
(iii) will pay a $950,000 civil penalty.
