I have a T-Mobile/Sprint 5g tower just 1/4 mile from me at our AZ residence and 1 less than a mile away at my TX residence. We are T-Mobile 55+ plan cellular customers.
When I inquired on whether or not we could use the ONE 5g device and service in BOTH locations, I was told “No, I would need two different accounts, devices and services”. I asked why and was told “The technology was the same, but it had to do with FCC, Federal, state and local taxes and because of that each device was locked to a geographical location.”.
While I didn’t like the answer - it did make sense. This was a couple months ago and I haven’t done anything since.

It would be interesting to hear if people are taking their 5g modem/router on the road and it actually continues to work...
