Looks like it time to drop my slow overpriced uverse for charter.

I just can't stand Charter.  We had them years ago and had nothing but issues.  Every few months they would come out and "make adjustments" at their box down the street because we kept getting random outages.  Their customer service was horrible.  I've preferred uverse TV to Charter.....and uverse's internet has been extremely reliable for me too (although it doesn't have the higher speeds Charter offers).

I think there is a nationwide outage. No LTE here in Tampa and another member reporting same in Jacksonville.

they must have been doing a ton of ecsfb updates in the last couple days, general lte seems to be almost back to 'normal' coverage, new b41 seems to active 270 & manchester to olive, and previous b41 in arnold and 270/olive seem to be back to normal.

 

still drop to 3g around 270 & gravois though.

 

gonna switch back to n5 from m8 and see if the nexus is working better on the new radio.

So the new charter speed boost crap has extended out into other county's. My friend in union went from 30mb down to 112down and my grandpa in valley park went from 60ishmb down with a 10 ping to 253down and a 2 ping. Hilarious thing is he only uses it for online poker, and that's hardly ever.

Was at Busch Stadium tonight for the game and had band 41 but wasn't to great. Had -112 dBm and pulled around 3.8 down with a ping over 100. Very weak signal but my nexus 5 connected with no problems.

Two weeks ago I got 40+ down on band41 at Busch. But i was in the upper decks. One of those times being in the uppers was an advantage. Looked like no one else was on band41. I had to force lte cause otherwise it wouldn't connect to band41. Maybe they fixed the efcab issue so now everyone (with a triband device) is on band41.

-112 on B41 isn't as bad as the same level on 25/26. That said, you should have gotten way better throughput on b41 at that level. Are you certain you had band 41 and weren't getting 25/26 from another site?

    • Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.
    • 5G in the U.S. – Additional Mid-band Spectrum Driving Performance Gains T-Mobile holds on to it's lead in 5G Speed
    • Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.
    • Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.  
    • Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
