So Every employee data plan will be managed by the company itself. It is like a family-sharing plan but in large size.
With Sprint wireless brand acquisition, T-mobile is working on releasing WFX (Work From Anywhere), a technology that delivers high speeds, low latency, and frequencies that work best in urban areas. WFX utilizes a 5G network – it is a “business class” option for T-Mobile’s home internet service.

Plus, WFX comes with a bunch of security tools for business environments.
What is T-Mobile’s WFX?
The press release from T-Mobile regarding its release of WFX hinted that Sprint’s wireless bands’ acquisition made the tech possible. WFX is released to allow T-Mobile customers to enjoy a separate, dedicated wireless router that delivers 5G and/or LTE network, “enterprise-grade” wireless security, and 24/7 support.
However, T-Mobile WFX is not launching globally. Upon launch, the company is looking to provide WFX to 60 million households, which WFX would expand to 90 million households by 2025.
According to T-Mobile, WFX Solutions meets with remote employee (at-home workers) needs, providing a suite of services such as business calls, messaging, conferencing, and more.
Furthermore, the Home Office Internet plan is capped at $90 per month per line. The plan offers unlimited data for home connection, smartphone, and Wi-Fi hotspot. T-Mobile hints that its plans beat both Verizon and AT&T‘s enterprise plans without introducing data caps.
