5G Ultra Wideband Speed Test Thread

[Checker79]

Verizon 5GUW test outside on Barrett Parkway in Kennesaw, GA. Absolutely pathetic and unacceptable performance due to Verizon’s terrible macro density and lack of any small cells in the area. T-Mobile and AT&T perform significantly better all around this area. For those of you hoping Verizon slapping c band antennas on all of the towers will fix their data network issues, think again. This area is proof that just doing that is nowhere near enough. Verizon has to heavily densify their macro network.

Your market doesn’t speak for the whole country . Its performing great here . That’s all I care about. Plus the modem constantly gets stuck on UW even when you aren’t on C band , so there’s that.

Never said it did. It’s crazy how some of y’all get so defensive over any legitimate criticism of Verizon. They aren’t the flawless provider so many of you make them out to be.

No carrier is flawless. Da

Not once did I say their flawless …

You did specifically mention it sucks in your area so I do give you props for not assuming it's that way everywhere. Which is more than I can say for a lot of "Verizon sucks" comments who legitimately think their personal experience means it's that way everywhere. But then you go and post.

"For those of you hoping Verizon slapping c band antennas on all of the towers will fix their data network issues, think again."

So you do go back to the "This affects MY area thus it affects everyone." You have no ZERO basis for your statement. And I'm hardly a Verizon defender as I criticize them plenty. If you had kept you entire post to just "My area" then there was nothing wrong with it

Guys play nice. I think everybody can agree that Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile are in no way perfect. No point in arguing semantics.

How are the deployments coming along ?

Pretty widespread across the south metro area. Solid coverage down I75 from I285. Deployment stops in Henry county until you get to Macon with a few sites in Macon live.

I’ve seen several posts from that market ( now that n77 is 100 MHz) and the speeds are quite impressive overall. When they go to 160 MHz n77 and aggregate 30-80 MHz of n48 (where deployed) it’s going to be

This is the fastest I’ve gotten on 100 MHz so far

Fort Wayne has been getting a rapid expansion of Cband. Here's a test from a tower in Leo-Cedarville, a town in the suburban area of the metro. They are running a 100Mhz channel on most towers, although a few of the original Cband deployments from last fall are still 60Mhz (unsure why).

The majority of tests on Cband, however, hover between 200-300Mbps, as backhaul on some towers has not been turned up past 1Gbps.

That's interesting. First report I've heard of Verizon C-band expanding to use the entire 100 MHz block that AT&T had temporary access to after the initial 60 MHz deployment. I assume AT&T has either not deployed in the area yet, or they already moved up to their permanent spectrum?
