    The 2263 menu is still working post update thankfully. I noticed T-Mobile still hasn't added either n2 or n25, so the S22 they used for that 3gbps test must have been using custom firmware. Currently my S22 Ultra has n1 NSA, n3 NSA, n5 NSA, n7 NSA, n8 NSA, n20 NSA, n28 NSA, n38 NSA, n41 SA and NSA, n66 SA and NSA, n71 SA and NSA, n260 NSA, & n261 NSA on the NR5G Band preference menu. 

    Yeah, I'm surprised they haven't enabled N25 yet.

    This is likely due to load balancing.

    In certain areas, we’ll set up mobility parameters to release users to a less loaded cell, even if it’s RSRP is lower (think NR event A4). These sorts of configs can get super complex due to degradation in SNR or BER, though (especially for cells on the same channel). 

    Well what's weird about that is off-loading you to a network...that you're trying to shut down.  🙂  I would think you would want to keep as many people off as possible, to help you shut it down.

    Verizon finally turned on C-band on the sites the cover my home. Maximum speeds indoors or out are ~350Mbps around my home. Unfortunately their signal isn't great inside my home just as I hypothesized. Near any window I get 2 bars which gets me as fast as 350Mbps down and up to 12Mbps up but generally hover around 250 down.

    In my living room where I have the weakest signal on both T-Mobile or Verizon (besides my basement) I lose n77 completely. If I hold my phone just right I can get ~55Mbps down but the uplink is the bottleneck. I can’t get more than 1Mbps there. This is in comparison to 483 down and 28Mbps up in the same place on my T-Mobile line.

    For what it's worth I don't think backhaul is the issue since the sites around me all have mmWave. I think it's more that C-band's range isn't that great in my area. 

    Here are some screenshots of Verizon speeds just outside my house vs in my living room:

    Sidenote: Has anyone else noticed that Verizon has removed the mmWave layer from their coverage maps? Looks like they're deemphasizing it just like T-Mobile and AT&T.

     

    I still see the mmWave layer

    Apparently 3.45 requires NR Release 16, which is only available on X65 modems. So the only phones that can take advantage are the S22 series right now. Plus whatever comes out with the 8G1 otherwise. Which annoys me because I'm not hearing great things about the S22, so I don't particularly want to upgrade, but I also want to take advantage of that spectrum.

    Might have to buy two new phones this year as a result: one for 3.45, one for n70 😐

    3.45 what?
