Thank you for this extremely helpful info. I did look at cell mapper and compared to what TMobile location finder was telling me. They align. TMobile says “extended range” and I do have trees that may be an issue. Closest tower shows 3 mile range. I am in a bedroom community (suburbs with predominant housing). Most people in the area have networks with home automation. Networks are mainly Xfinity and Dish. Many people work from home. I doubt any adult/teen in the area is without at least a cell phone. Figure I have 15 days to find the best place for gateway. So far I am on 4th spot without improvement. Currently sitting at 3 bars. Stats are roughly the same as last night.Again, thanks for the detail. It is very much appreciated
Currently 3 bars, RSRP= -107, RSRQ = -13, SINR = 2 on the LTE side. 5G side = RSRQ -14, RSRP -96, SINR -3. Gate on south side of house. I used the location map and it points to south side. Window in front of it, window to the west of it. 2nd story. I’ll check cellmapper and see if it aligns with TMobile location function in app. Thanks. Already have a primary network that runs my office and house. Lots of connections. TMobile was too good a deal so figured I’d try. But reliability is paramount and from what I am reading I’m not alone in being let down. Gonna be interesting to see what cellmapper says. Thanks
Deployed the KVD21 last night. 2-3 bars anywhere I place the thing. Up to a dozen disconnects so far on day1. Rebooted 3 times. This is all within 24 hours. No point calling and complaining. I see enough right here in the posts. Before 15 days is up I’m gonna drop this stupidity like a bad habit. I’m fine with testing for 2 weeks on non critical things like cell phone and tablet but this TMobile internet isn’t close to dependable enough to actually have as a primary network. So 2 weeks of playing then I kick this thing to the curb. It is junk
Correct but a big square box acting as a cell phone hot spot is what they send. If it walks like a 5G and talks like a 5G it’s a cell phone hot spot 😆.
Here in Colorado a lot of them are invisible. So is the service they are supposed to provide. 😂
Only the federal government gives out free money. Free for them to hand out, expensive for taxpayers to foot the bill.
No. Think of the internet box as basically a big square cell phone acting as a hot spot.
