Happy days voltized. Just look at that ping.After waiting 6months for the tower to turn on someone finally came and flipped the switch
Here are my results for 5G broadband without an antenna on my windowsill. Router is a CPE pro

Yea pretty good thinking of getting an external antenna and putting it on the side the tower actually is, ping is consistently 8-9 and seen 7ms but on my phone with the sim in it gets 12+. These results are obviously wired ethernetHappy days voltized. Just look at that ping.![]()
Oh I wouldn't bother with an external with these results.Yea pretty good thinking of getting an external antenna and putting it on the side the tower actually is, ping is consistently 8-9 and seen 7ms but on my phone with the sim in it gets 12+. These results are obviously wired ethernet
rather obvious it's 3 lol, no other operator could go that fastSo jealous! What operator is that with?
I am planning on switching on using this full time after my Virgin Media contract ends (August) in the time between my new internet pre order from YouFibre (Netomnia) is installed, been a few months so gonna have this 5G router in use for a while. I use remote desktop connections quite a lot and gaming in household and noticed stuttering with certain games and I noticed some in RDP, would an external antenna help with any of these uses at all? Apart from gaming and specific use cases with a real-time connection needed it’s perfect for browsing etc, but obviously wireless can’t beat cable in terms of gaming etcOh I wouldn't bother with an external with these results.![]()
I wouldn't think an entenna would actually make any difference at all connectivity wise voltized.I am planning on switching on using this full time after my Virgin Media contract ends (August) in the time between my new internet pre order from YouFibre (Netomnia) is installed, been a few months so gonna have this 5G router in use for a while.

Yeah you are pretty much spot on (not that I'm an expert).I wouldn't think an entenna would actually make any difference at all connectivity wise voltized.
You may find your speeds actually reduce due to cable loss and MIMO reduction, hard to predict these things though unfortunately.
I will let the experts here chip in.![]()
*cough* In my experience it is the reverse! Just had another power cut and on the phone for 40mins to the lovely people working with Three Tech support to try and get back a 4G connection on 3UK.rather obvious it's 3 lol, no other operator could go that fast
mainly because 1) that's 4G, not 5G and 2) You seem to live in a not-so-great 3 area... If you dislike it so much.... leave. And if it's your 'only option' as you've said in the past, just live with it! It's better than what others have to offer, clearly.*cough* In my experience it is the reverse!

Over a 106 times faster than my connection!! And this result is good compared to normal as the mast had boot everyone off it!

You don't need all theseSame here too. Few have been up a while, powered up, fibres up, microwaved up and still nothing.
Could be a mass switch on?
Anyone want to buy some cheap cables?there's a phase 7 pole near the shell garage on chellow heights (Bradford) that's been active a while now... I drove past the other day and noticed it wasnt broadcasting at all and there was a panel missing + other panels left with cables not plugged in just hanging loose from the pole. Wonder what they are doing to it as without that pole, there's barely any service from EE or 3 (very weak 4G+ from another mast)

mine was actually broadcasting for a year though before ending up like this quite recently... very weird.We have a pole like that in Glasgow. Hard to say whether it’s turned on or not. Even when I was with EE I didn’t feel like I was getting any service from it. It had missing panels where the Three 5G antennas normally would be.
I’m sure I can hear the cabinets next to it turned on though.
Been like that for almost 2 years.
