Home internet speeds extremely inconsistent and connection drops intermittently
We jumped on home internet service as soon as we heard about it. For a long time now, Comcast has been the only choice in Baltimore City and it feels like they squeeze city residents to subsidize low...
Got excited and switch to TMo 5G Internet. At first, the speeds were good, 50-150Mbps up, 25-60Mbps down. Then when I started using it on the daily basis, I started to notice it’s very inconsistent. Sometimes both the down & up speeds are even lower than 1Mbps, especially starting around 6pm. The down speed does recover most of the time after a few minutes to an acceptable speed, usually 15-25Mbps, but the up speed often takes longer time to recover. Even when it recovers, it stays below 15Mbps.
My tower signal is always 3 bar for 4GLTE b66, and 4 bar for 5G n71.
My previous provider Spectrum speed was always consistent 150+Mbps up & ~10Mbps down.
