Pittsburgh pa area...my home tower went from 100mhz to 140mhz but that only lasted like 2 weeks and its been goone....soooo im guessing they arr still updating the tower

What is it about all these letters ? Bands are identified as band numbers not letters its band 2 66 etc

[Longshore]

Yeh changes on Samsung are noticeable . About a 6 DBM increase in power. To be clear these range improvements are on the 200W radios. The 100 MHz A block is performing like AWS. I’m sure the 320W will be even better.

I hope this is applicable in central Maryland. Outdoors I can get 600-700Mbps on UW. But the second I go indoors it drops back to LTE.

I just wish Verizon Signal had some penetration. I have such horrible service inside buildings. Did a test yesterday with a buddy who has att, inside I had 0 service and he had 10mbps. We walked outside and I had 50mbps and he had 30.

How do you know if your region uses Erickson or samsung

[MatthewUrquhart]

Is Northern VA and the DC area a Samsung Market for VZ? I have noticed the update in Roanoke, VA. Has made a big difference in indoor penetration

I caught the update on my device at 11pm est on Monday within my place. Previously, it was only able to get N77 outside and the lowband indoors.

The problem in general is that Ericsson market performs much better than Samsung market. it is like two networks.... 😢 When being connected at Ericsson everything is way better. Coverage, speeds, stable connectivity...

[Lanon]

This is great for verizon customers and areas with iffy density. Hopefully nokia and ericsson has similar solutions for both c band and n41

I just thought of a positive thing about the hurricane down in Florida. That means all cell phone towers that they replaced down in Florida are going to have the latest and greatest hardware hopefully so Florida should have one hell of a nice 5G coverage in the coming future.

How does one tell what equipment is being used in AZ & HI for Apple devices? Please & thank you in advance 🌵🌺

[kv]

Also how is the potential recent and/or next “attack” going to affect the outcome of this connection? Thank you

Gotta have more millimeter wave nodes up for 5g home internet to get more customers to monitize the network. Nice to hear they fixed the hand shake with a firmware update.

[yurrbuggin]

yeah bruh visible got it too... 45$ a month and i was getting 2918 mbps down and 273 mbps up. im in new york

[darriontunstall]

Amazing! Is Tennessee a Ericsson or Samsung market for Verizon? 5G ultra wide band is awesome and amazing.

[jvolstad]

How can I tell what equipment is being used in San Antonio Texas?

[RLVTECHUSA]

320 watts requires 200 mhz of bandwidth less bw less power
Amazing what verizon is doing, if you think this is awesome just think what a 256x256 mu massive mimo full duplex air will do double range double speeds, the equipment up now is already outdated new tech comes in a year

[Aloha_Android]

Good morning Sneed, how are you today?

[Ned-rt]

Never had any issues with Verizon! I have an old S-7 not paying another penny for Verizon T or ATT!
