Re: Home Internet slow speed anyway to force b12?

They wouldn't mention looking into the problem either. Just told to keep trying different locations in the house I got the same reply from support. Hopefully if enough people report the same issue it will drive the development of adding some channel control. I spent a lot of time finding the best place in the house using the signal strength and SNR information. I actually found a location that would give 4 bars on n71 but that still wouldn't make it lock on as the B12 band was also usually 4 bars in that location. Maybe some of the T-Mobile engineers are scanning these communities from time to time and these comments will help drive feature improvements in the product.12Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Home Internet slow speed anyway to force b12?
Similar problem here. Acceptable performance with Primary connection on B66 and Secondary on N71 but the modem wouldn't stick to those bands and seemed to settle on just single Primary B12 connection which typically gave me 20Mbs down and 5Mbs up. It would be nice to have some control or even a preference setting on the band being used. I have cancelled the service and gone back to Spectrum and their creeping pricing for now. I'll take another look in a year and see if T-Mobile/Nokia have added more functionality or if another router is being offered ideally with external antenna options and band control. I like T-Mobile, this has the potential to be a good option but the hardware is just not quite there yet.17Visto1like0Comentarios
