Why does internet suck
We got the home internet not super long ago, and while it was great to begin with, it's now becoming more of a hassle. I'm always having to turn the wifi on my phone off and use my data (thank you un...
I got it about a bit more that a year ago (was only LTE locally, but $25/month).
After 3 months, 5G came in, and speeds were ~350-450 down / 20Mbps , a bit better on download with open door (400-500/60Mbps ).
Yesterday, I went to T-Mobile and swapped out the Arcadyan KVD-21 for the newer white model.
Downloads are ‘similar’, signal is cleaner (better RSSI/RSRP and slightly bettern SINR).
This gives me ~420/50Mbps, and with door open, +550/75Mbps.
Note: Tower is only ~1200’ away, but has a physical cap of ~750Mbps download. and the ‘home’ screen shows ‘Excellent’ (a first for indoors/door open).
Also, recommend not using 2.4GHz band on WiFi, found it to be typically slower (interference from others nearby).
