15ms ping. Nice 😃

3.5GHZ wont go through a paper bag 😬. Terrible frequency unless your outside with line of sight and within 200-400 meters.

@langi27 Wait for mm wave then

I wonder if the latest iPhone iOS 15.2 update allows access to the 2d 5G network, Can anyone check?

2d 5G also live on this site in Wellington.

Seems to be fine for me a kilometre away from the cell and in an office building...

Download speed dropped to 80mbps when inside a sushi shop.

That's your problem. Try going into a Hell's Pizza.

Well that's annoying. Someone should've told 3GPP before they went and standardised on it.

Its not the standard, its the frequency.  All telcos should be reusing existing LTE or WCDMA bands. 700, 900, 1800, 2100, even 2300.  

Leave anything over 2300Mhz for in-building wifi.

No no no

So does this mean that 5G is now enabled for my iPhone 6S? I updated it to the latest iOS...

Yes, ultimately it will use those bands, if only it weren't for those pesky phones that don't support 5G yet. LTE could also use all those bands if only it weren't for those pesky phones that don't support LTE yet.
