It’s not a data cap. It’s a low prioritization threshold. You still get unlimited data after that. But you can be slowed down if the tower is congested.
Oh yeah, that would definitely do the trick. The home internet is its own specific plan and has unlimited data with this 1.2 terabyte low priority threshold.
What low priority does is only slow you down during congestion. So if you’re using your tower at like four in the morning when practically everybody’s asleep, there’s going to be no congestion and so your speeds would still be perfectly fast. However, at six o’clock PM, there’s more people on the tower so you would get less speed at that time. It’s not a hard throttle to a certain speed or a data cap that just shuts you off completely.
It is a precursor to a cap. And slowing down is how most caps work on top of fees. Remember, home Internet on T-Mobile is already deprioritized when faced with phone data usage.
1,25 TB is nothing.
It’s insane to have data caps on home internet.

I have “unlimited internet” but tmobile says 2gb or something is high speed, after that, it’s pretty unusable.
That sounds like your regular mobile data plan. Not a home internet plan.
Ah I guess I confused the two. I use tmobile for mobile plan that’s why.

I think the concept is pretty much the same though right? The low priority is extremely slow and almost unusable like on mobile

This is true. It’s just not a cap as of now.
