Sharing my own experience here. Last Thursday evening started seeing issues with internet flows that persisted into Saturday morning. A couple of calls to support came back with "tower upgrades in progress". Took the time to look over to the west where my tower is, about half mile away and saw a large crane at the tower. By Saturday things had settled as support had said the upgrades would be done by then and they were.
Went from 150-200Mbps down, 15-25 up, to 300-500Mbps down, 30-50 up after the upgrade. RSRQ and such were several points better on both LTE and 5G connections on the Arkadyan. Also, ping times against google and cloudflare dns are much cleaner and better standard deviations.
Something got done, pleased where I am fwiw.
