T-Mobile has acknowledged a vulnerability in its systems.
There's one thing T-Mobile just can't do.
T-Mobile's Chief Broadband Officer, Allan Samson, stated in November 2025 that mobile internet technology continues to advance with significant innovative potential.
T-Mobile is expanding its fiber network through acquisitions rather than building new infrastructure. Samson aims to reach over 3 million homes and gain 900,000 to 1 million fiber subscribers by the end of 2025.
T-Mobile intends to leverage its sales and marketing expertise to boost fiber sales by enhancing the value and adjusting pricing, potentially by bundling wired and wireless services, a convergence strategy already common among telecom companies.
Samson noted that T-Mobile will differentiate itself from competitors by avoiding low introductory rates that later increase substantially and by not charging extra for Wi-Fi or routers.

Samson stated in November 2025 that T-Mobile focuses on its strengths and does not build wireline networks.
While T-Mobile has provided 5G standalone to mobile customers, its internet customers initially received a service that used a non-standalone (NSA) 5G network. This changed in March with the introduction of 5G SA on its new gateway. The company has further developed 5G Advanced offerings for its business clients.
AT&T and Verizon have begun implementing 5G SA for smartphone users and may soon extend it to fixed wireless access (FWA) customers. Verizon acquired Starry Internet in October to broaden its reach in urban areas, while AT&T is utilizing acquired spectrum to enhance speeds for its FWA subscribers.
The rising adoption of T-Mobile's FWA service in urban areas indicates it is not only a solution for customers in underserved rural locations.
T-Mobile has been willing to take risks, and its decision to acquire fiber companies instead of building networks from scratch is a smart move.
While it is encouraging that the company aims to avoid misleading pricing, it remains to be seen if it will maintain this commitment, given past instances of backtracking on similar promises.
Wireless carriers view service bundling as a strategy to reduce customer turnover because customers are less likely to switch providers when they purchase multiple services from one company. In 2024, T-Mobile reported that 70% of its FWA customers also subscribed to T-Mobile mobile services.
However, subscribing to multiple services from a single provider may make it harder for customers to switch, as they might endure unsatisfactory service to avoid the inconvenience of canceling several services simultaneously.
