Why is everyone spelling genius wrong?
So that article states to look for T-Mobile to be looking for a merger in 2022

CenturyLink (Lumen) sucks & T-Mobile sucks so they will indeed suck each other up and merge. It’s the only way either can survive and will put them more in-line with AT&T, Verizon and Comcast. Even after they merge they will still be the smallest.
Hey genus just how many techs do you think they will need to provide the fiber to the towers compared to now?
still requires a path to the cell site and transport to work there genus.
This is no merger, its an agreement or partnership in which T-Mobile will be using Lumens Edge computing capabilities. That being said, I had Centurylink for my Internet needs, 40x5 Bonded fastest I can get where I live. So I dumped them and switch over to T-mobile Home Internet Service. They promise you at least on average 100mb down and 80mb up. No data cap and with Home Router capability (offers Wifi 6). Man its fast very fast, there are times in the early mornings I get over 240mb down. They send you the modem router, at the setup time is like 10 minutes. Its feeding internet through its 5g cell towers in the area. There is a nitch where T-mobile can steal away customers from legacy telecom companies. So thats my take to this post. There is no merger anbd
The article is 3 months old.
T-Mobile door to door sales came knocking a few weeks back and here is the kicker. They are limited on how many home internet customers they will provide service to in an area, due to network capacity. They can’t serve everyone because it will bog down the node at the cell site in the area. So not really going to ki-l dsl.
If they are planning to use 5G network and not copper or even fiber to the home totally cellular then how many network technicians will you need? Or maybe Premise Technicians instead
How do you get no new cwa contract out of that article?
