    Hotspot @home Service

    I understand Tmobile is still activating but not promoting the Hot spot @home service. I had a few questions.
    Must you sign a 2 year contact or can you go month to month?
    If a contact is required must the hotspot @ home be tied to another voice line or can the hotspot be your only service?
    Can the SIM card be used in another device besides the old router they made you buy?

    Thank you

    I have mine running on a prepaid SIM. Just make sure you have your 911 address set up and you're good to go.

    Actually I have no interest in using the hotspot router rather I was wondering if putting the SIM card from the hotspot @ home router into a regular cell phone would work? If it world work, how much voice, text and data is provided by this plan?

    Thank you.

    Data will work for a few minutes tops, then you'll get the upsale page. Voice and text will probably work.

    This could be an awesome deal. Does anyone know how many minutes and texts you would receive on this plan or is it unlimited?

    lol!
    you cannot txt with @home router, it just a analog phone.
    if you have unlimited WiFi calling in your account , it is unlimited calls.
    if you don't have unlimited add-on, it will deduct your bucket mins.
