t-mobile Home Internet - Location Issue

I live in Los Angeles County California, and the home internet is showing the different sites that I am in Las Vegas.  This creates a problem from things like streaming YouTube TV, to access my local channels.  Spent many hours with Home Internet (they act like they have never heard of the problem - yet I have seen some comment on this chat (doesn’t T-Mo monitor the chat room, (another question for another day))).  It was suggested that I wire my personal router into the T-Mo router, and at first it appeared to work but then when I went to You Tube it showed location as Vegas again, An hour on chat with You-tube (this person appeared to know what they were talking about) and he finally said that You tube uses your IP address to determian where you have access and since my was saying Vegas that all they can do.     Anyone have any suggestions on a work around, I would hate to go back to Spectrum to solfe  the issue.
