How New T-Mobile plans to disrupt the current US in-home broadband market

T-Mobile CEO John Legere offered a peek into how the company will bring its Un-Carrier initiative into the cable broadband market if it gets the go-ahead to merge with Sprint.

The combined company, New T-Mobile, plans to disrupt the current US in-home broadband market — dominated by Comcast, Charter, AT&T, and Verizon — by offering an alternative option: a low-priced 5G home internet service featuring fast speeds, self-installation, no annual service contract, and its Layer3 TV service.

T-Mobile plans to kick off its Home Internet service by using a 4G LTE router running its existing LTE network. After the merger, the router will be upgraded to include 2.5 GHz spectrum and 5G compatible hardware.
