Is there a way to lock onto a tower and not have it hop around, or any other methods to pull a signal from a specific tower? I have 2 towers close to me, and my tmo home internet bounces between them. I live within a mile of both. My home tower gives me, on average, 150mb down & 40mb up (sometime much better: 300/60). No issue with that. The issue is that the other tower gives me less than 1mb up, usually ~0.4mb, ALWAYS. This one is further away but only by maybe a half mile. It's so bad that you can't even use wifi calling because it can't upload the packets quick enough. I can't use my normal phone calling when on that tower, either, as it has the same issue as wifi calling (garbled or robotic sounding to the other person). Additionally, the speeds are virtually no better on phone data when connected to this tower. I know exactly which cell (31026060598018) and band (66). I've reported the issue to tmobile multiple times, filled tickets, but they always say everything is green a
I'm curious about using a cell booster, but a bit of background on my situation. I have a couple towers near me, which are tower 1 west-northwest and tower 2 north. Tower 1 is a little bit closer and my home tower. When I'm connected to this tower, I have a good connection and good speeds. However, I frequently get bounced to tower 2 and the upload speed is basically non-existent (0.4 - 0.7Mbps) and unusable. I see this behavior across my phone and home internet, although the phone occasionally gets a couple Mbps. I've reported the issue to tmobile countless times without a resolution. So, my question is if I hook up a cell booster and pull the signal from tower 1, will the boosted signal prevent my devices from hoping back over to tower 2?
