Holiday shopping at the outlet mall in Chesterfield (premium, by 64/40), holding b41 inside most stores and held it just about everywhere in the bottoms. This was my lowest speed today, it was usually hovering around 25mbs down.

Thanks to the selflessness of one of our members I now have a new shiny HTC ONE to play with! I am speechless! Its only a loaner but this is amazing!

Last night I had the Mifi at Urban Chestnut for an event and was pulling crazy good Band 41 LTE. I was feeling cocky, so I challenged friends with a Verizon phone & AT&T phone to a speedtest.

That second screen shot is B25.

The engineering screen? I must have caught it switching, it was a fringe signal.

Speedtest shot shows -94 for LTE

I left the test open and screen shot it later. I was suddenly onset with things to hold, that's what I get for going shopping with a female lol.

The Signal Check screenshot is of band 25. Notice that the GCI starts with 056. That's your tip off.

Unless 056 ends with the 1A, 1B or 19, right? By the grand basin was getting 25 downish on B41.

If it ends with the 1A, 1B or 19 in our market it is B26. 056 without that at the end is B25.

"Unlimited data customers in Chicago and Minneapolis are eligible for annual upgrades, while West Michigan customers will have to pay a $5 fee each month for their annual upgrade."

 

Anyone else read anything about this?

The kicker was Verizon failing the test. I've never ever seen that before.

Since the launch of B26 I have gotten LTE where Verizon can't get it in St. Charles. I make sure to point it out when I show them stuff on Instagram and they say how do you have service in here.

Picked up some B26 in the valley today, and here's the b41 I was getting the other day. I got an engineering screen to make sure.

Who's our backhaul provider? There's some contractors (in unmarked trucks) pulling fiber really close to the two sites near my house that need it. I wish I had time to stop and talk to the contractors..

Premiere has that info. Not sure if I'm allowed to say it here. There are 2.

Is there any significance to the fact that SignalCheck is showing I've been on EV-DO instead of eHPRD for the past week? It occurs on 3 towers in Chesterfield that I am frequently connected to and that don't yet have NV upgrades.

 

Speed seems a bit on the low side and my battery is draining pretty fast these days, but those could be unrelated.

No real significance. Happens to me all the time.

Picked up b26 in two new spots today. First is at the grey summit exit on 44, the odd thing is I normally get a -70 to -80dbm b25 signal there but it wouldn't connect to b25 for anything. The second is down in the valley, over by south etheron road and the rail road tracks. It held a good distance back into the boonies though.

      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.

      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....
