5G Home Internet nightly slow down
Hey all, I've had the black 5G gateway for a couple days now, and have been a T-Mobile customer for just as long. I guess the issue I'm having is looking like one that a lot of other people are as we...
Thanks so much for the reply. There is no freeway nearby and the city has maybe 16,000 people in it. Download speeds range from 300 to under 5 and upload from about 20 to 4. The patterns of slowdown don't correspond to rush hour but instead seem to relate to peak TV times. They were especially bad during the evening when the Olympics were on and caused the TV stream to buffer and sputter repeatedly. I have used the location functoin in the app to find a better spot, although there is no ideal place on the 3rd floor of this townhouse because the only windows are on the opposite side of the nearest tower. All that said, this has worked exceptionally for 10 of the 11 months I have used it, rarely going below 100 mbps which is adequate for us. Then the bottom started dropping out at night. As for the metrics, they are as follows: Received signal strngth indicator, LTE: Good, Reference signal received quality: 5G and LTE, good. Reference signal received power: 5G and LTE both poor. Signal interference to noise ratio: 5G: Excellent, LTE: Poor. Band: 5G: n41, LTE: b66, Cell Global Identity: LTE: 31026068876035. Channel Quality Indication: LTE: 4
None of this makes any sense to me. Hope it does to you. Thanks again.
