Re: Data service signficantly decreased for the last week - can't use channel B66 anymore
They're all set right now to use 2, 12, and 13. I also get internet service through a secondary provider on TMobile, so I can see it on the router - if I lock it to 2 and 66, it only connects to 2, if I try just 66, won't connect at all. It's made working from home atrocious.3Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Data service signficantly decreased for the last week - can't use channel B66 anymore

Maybe it's time to stop locking your devices into bands for LTE and let the connect to the best possible connection they provide. Because it's objectively worse by every measure. Which I already said. On 2 and 66 - 80 Mbps down, 6 Mbps up, low latency, typically under 100ms Now with 66 gone, using 2 and 12 - 15-20 Mbps down, 3 Mbps up, 200-900 latency (high jitter.) If I turn off band locking, I get worse, especially on the upload and latency. 5G - 5-6 Mbps down, 0.1Mbps up (often just fails, and often even slower than this), 900+ latency B66 disappearing has severely reduced service, and not sure why it suddenly disappeared, and turning off band locking only makes things worse. formercanuck wrote: True. In most instances, my devices typically use 5g SA only, and if weak enough, it will drop to 5g NSA with LTE. If you're in a fringe area, LTE B12 or B71 may be it. This might be more of an issue with capacity/spectrum/coverage in your area Been using B2 and B66 for over two years. Suddenly last week B66 disappeared. 5G has been terrible since we moved to this location, and is no better today.2Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Data service signficantly decreased for the last week - can't use channel B66 anymore

It's still even worse than the degraded 4g LTE without B66.7Visto0likes0ComentariosData service signficantly decreased for the last week - can't use channel B66 anymore
We've been at our current location with T-Mobile for over 2 years and rely on the data service for internet service (we have almost no other options.) In the last week, the service has really nose dived. Speed is ¼ what it used to be, and worse is latency has skyrocketed. Before, I had set all devices to band lock to B2 and B66. This combination by far gave the best service. When I checked the settings on our devices after it suddenly got much worse, I noticed it refuses to let any device use B66 anymore. I normally have 2 and 66 set, but any device with those two set only use 2. If I try to use just 66, I can't connect to the network. With any device. B66 suddenly not working has severely degraded service - is T-Mobile suddenly no longer allowing this channel?192Visto0likes11Comentarios
