#n41 — Public Fediverse posts

#5G update: #TMobile has dropped 2.5 GHz (Band 41) #LTE entirely in a number of markets, including Austin, widening n41 by the same amount. I think the #Austin switchover happened at ~9:20am this morning as a friend briefly lost connectivity right around then (probably cell site reboot), prompting me to look at my phone's field test.

I found a sweet, sweet 100 + 80 MHz of #n41 live, which is well above what #Verizon or #att can bring online with #CBand right now.

750 Mbps indoors at home FTW!

My phone can now connect to all four #5G bands T-Mobile might use, and all three that they do use (#n71, #n41, #n25). So now I'm sitting on a 10x10 MHz connection that likely very few others are using, that feels every bit as snappy as a wired connection. And I can finally properly map T-Mobile 5G here again, months after T-Mobile said the S22 was kinda the launch phone for n25. Better late than never!

In the aforementioned restaurant, I decided to do a #5G #speedTest while waiting for my food, on #TMobile. Cell site is maybe 900 feet away, and this is indoors. 140 MHz of #n41. This is comparable to what I get in perfect-ish conditions on AT&T #mmWave, at least on the download side.

One of the things I did pretty often was post about #5g #signal, with #speedtest results. So I guess I'll start doing that here.

On the road west of Austin, TX, #ATT has 10 MHz and a lot of LTE. Speeds are actually pretty solid. #TMobile is better though, despite (still!) Only 40 MHz of #n41; I saw nearly 400 Mbps earlier. #Verizon is...questionable, still #LTE only.
