Tower Update urgent request in Tulsa!
T-Mobile has its own time schedule for upgrades to sites. Sometimes, the most needed ones take the longest, while others that really don’t have a true need are done early, and some sites are just scrapped.
Eg. 2 sites in San Simeon, CA.
1 at Hearst Castle, 4G LTE B66, fiber fed, range +10 miles
1 at the Motels below - now 5G n41/n71/n25 + LTE, range < 1mile
Town = 400 residents.
In 2019, T-Mobile upgraded the on the rooftop of the motels, took 8 months after before they put in fiber. Service was reachable and usable from Hearst Castle site (~2 miles and +1800’ away).
Today, Hearst Castle is still … 4G LTE B66. and is the only site to cover southbound area into Cambria, CA , and ‘could use’ low band … LTE / 5G. No ETA to update site.
Your best action would be to talk to Advanced Tech Support (T-Mobile social media or through 611) to see if there’s an ETA.
