Is it just me, or is AT&T wireless on fire. Went from about 8Mbps to 25Mb down and 16.7 up.

AT&T tries to market their slightly improved 4G as a form of 5G but it really isn't. I can't say I'd call 25mbps on fire, but if it's a better user experience for you that's cool. I was downtown last weekend where I can pull T-Mobiles 5G signal and my 48mbps 4G went to almost 500mbps. That's short of the theoretical 1gps but I'll take it for now.

It really makes no difference. Until I can pull in 5g wireless for home with almost no latency it doesn't matter.

I'm with you on that. At this point I'm just experimenting with 5G. Can't wait till it's widely available and gives the cable monopolies some competition.

I'd love to make calls half the time on AT&T.

Everywhere I've lived it has been great but here. One more month and we can give another carrier a try.

Yikes! Should I be glad I have Verizon then? I was AT&T before this. I literally switched for the most trivial reason but I don’t regret it. New iPhones had come out maybe it was 4 years ago and their site was not loading, just generally being a pile of dung for hours on end. I looked at Verizon and it loaded fine, so I just ordered my phones from them and switched that night. Note to carriers: unacceptable, pathetic servers cost you contracts worth thousands. Get better servers.

I moved here a year and a half ago and brought my T-Mobile phone with me. I have yet to see less than 5 bars anywhere outside of Red Rock Canyon.

Yeah, we're going to give T-Mobile a shot since they also offer a good discount for VA employees.

T-Mobile is so Vegas, I can’t deny you that - gotta consider the carrier for the Knights!
