Horrendous Download vs. Awesome Upload Speeds
It's really strange with out Internet service as of late. Using Ookla I've been finding our downloads have been 2 MB at the best while our uploads 50 MB or better. Normally it's been 7 or so MB down...
I just have to agree the download speed is horrendous. You really need to press T-Mobile for more information. What they state and what is don't even come close. They should step up and actually provide information about the "other factors". The router's cellular metrics for 5G and the actual speeds just don't make sense. The delivery from the tower is not right.
With the 5G cellular metrics below, that you reported, you should get +10x what you get down at least. Only getting 10 Mbs download speed is pretty much blah DSL speed not high speed at all.
RSRP -82 dBm
SNR 16 dB
RSRQ -11 dB
“T-Mobile 5G Home Internet customers see typical download speeds between 33-182 Mbps, which is great speed for streaming video, surfing the web, working from home and most types of online gaming. Speeds can vary depending on location, signal strength and availability, time of day, and other factors.”
