The Un-carrier extends 5G Home Internet to 81 additional cities and towns in five states, giving millions a new option for fast, reliable Internet.
BELLEVUE, Wash., June 30, 2022†BUSINESS WIRE)–T-Mobile is once again connecting an additional 81 cities and towns in Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma with improved access to 5G Home Internet! Today, T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) announced it has expanded its 5G Home Internet footprint in these five states, where more than 1.1 million households still lack access to broadband at home. With this latest expansion, T-Mobile Home Internet is available to almost 5 million households. Today’s news follows recent Home Internet expansions in the Southeast† Texas† Midwest and southgiving tens of millions of Americans a new option for affordable, reliable broadband for home use.
Access to fast, reliable broadband internet at home is no longer a luxury. But for too many communities, access to reliable broadband at home is still incredibly limited. According to a recent study by the Greater Des Moines Partnership, 40% of homes in Central Iowa report download speeds of less than 25 Megabits per second (Mbps), which falls short of the FCC definition of high-speed broadband, even though bandwidth demand has increased nearly 25% annually for the past two decades. . In Oklahoma it is estimated that one in four students does not have high-speed Internet access at home, as approximately 90% of Oklahoma’s school districts are located partially or completely in rural areas. And in the urban core of Kansas City, MO, officials have gotten creative, with the launch a programme for high school students to install internet in city buildings, just to provide basic, affordable connectivity to the city residents. It is 2022. This is unacceptable.
With T-Mobile, more than 40 million households – of which a third are in rural America – are eligible for 5G Home Internet. They get broadband speeds that can handle multiple devices at once for work, streaming, zooming, online learning, gaming and more! And it’s only $50 a month with AutoPay. Or $30 a month for families with Magenta MAX, T-Mobile’s most popular phone plan — that’s what we call a win-win.
What people say
“Bravo! Extremely pleased that T-Mobile is committed to expanding its home Internet service to remove barriers in the Denver-Aurora metro area and beyond,” said Colorado Senator Rhonda Fields – District 29 Assistant Majority Leader. “Affordability and cost should never be a barrier to Internet access. Diverse communities can achieve the vision of universal, abundant and affordable broadband with this T-Mobile service.”
“Residents across Iowa now have a new option when it comes to reliable broadband at home thanks to T-Mobile Home Internet,” said State Representative Brian Lohse, chairman of the Iowa House Information Technology Committee. “Access to broadband at home is not a luxury, it is a necessity and I look forward to this continued partnership with T-Mobile as we continue to expand broadband access in our state.”
“I’m excited that T-Mobile is expanding its home Internet service in Colorado to offer a competitive home broadband option,” said Colorado State Representative Dafna Michaelson Jenet. “Broadband is an essential service and it is critical that Coloradans has reliable and affordable options to stay connected. I welcome T-Mobile’s investment in this space and look forward to future broadband expansion to other parts of our great state. “
“T-Mobile’s 5G Home Internet investment in Oklahoma is a big step forward for many in Oklahoma who need faster speeds and better Internet access,” said Representative Jeff Boatman. “I can’t thank them enough for their commitment and willingness to work with many others to improve Internet access in the state.”
“Broadband expansion is vital to Missouri’s future,” Missouri State Senator Sandy Crawford said. “T-Mobile’s expansion of its 5G Internet service will help families in Sedalia get the speeds they need for both work and personal use. I appreciate their investment in Pettis County.”
“T-Mobile’s expansion of its 5G home Internet service will help more Kansas families get the speeds they want for work, school, and fun,” said Kansas Lieutenant Governor David Toland. “We are grateful for their investment in Kansas and hope to continue.”
“T-Mobile is all about disrupting broken industries. And the broadband industry is broken to a great extent. Millions in this country are left behind, unable to participate in the digital economy and virtual learning, all because they don’t not having access to high-speed internet, that’s just ridiculous,” said Mike Katz, chief marketing officer at T-Mobile. “Today, we are giving nearly 5 million additional homes in Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma a new, affordable option for fast, reliable 5G Internet. With 5G Home Internet, along with efforts like Project 10Million, T-Mobile is doing real work. to bridge the digital divide.”
