What this page is: T-Mobile's open internet disclosures for its broadband internet access services

This page is T-Mobile's Open Internet disclosure. It opens with T-Mobile's statement of belief that everyone should have access to all the Internet has to offer, and then provides information about T-Mobile's Broadband Internet Access Services: the network practices, performance characteristics and commercial terms that apply to them. The detailed disclosures for those three topics sit on separate linked pages that are not part of this source; this page itself carries the scope statement, the contact details and a set of frequently asked questions.

Disclosures cover T-Mobile-branded and Connect by T-Mobile-branded customers on the 2G, 4G LTE and 5G networks

The network practices, performance characteristics and commercial terms described here apply to T-Mobile-branded customers, including Connect by T-Mobile-branded customers, using T-Mobile's Broadband Internet Access Services over T-Mobile's 2G, 4G LTE and 5G networks. The page's opening line points customers looking for a different brand in the T-Mobile family elsewhere, so other brands' disclosures are separate documents.
