Gonna be long but I like to be thorough in my descriptions. I live in the mountains of northeastern Tennessee. T-mobile has basically been non-existent in my rural area with the closest tower being 5...

I have seen several of his videos. My only problem with the trees are their size. There are probably 5 trees in a 25' fence line that are 20-24" in diameter at the trunk with limbs up to 16" in diameter. I live on a hill so I am just about level with the top of the tower so I am looking at it thru the trunk portion of the trees. Even when I was at my building outside in a direct line of sight of the tower with my gateway, the SINR was still erratic, causing the 4G to disconnect, which would cause my 5G to disconnect for a few seconds until the 4G reconnected and 5G could ride on it.
