My next door neighborhood is filled with the stupid 5G debates. The ignorance of some of my neighbors is breathtaking. And I live in a highly educated neighborhood. Go figure. At least the mayor and the council is on board for 5G rollout due to the current poor reception of 4G among some providers.
- XCSme 7y agoWon't 5G have even worse reception due to the higher frequency/smaller reception distance?
- kbrosnan 7y agoWith the current equipment and spectrum assigned it does have that problem. MKBHD goes over this is a video. It is awesome if you stand right underneath a 5g site, 1-2 gbps. If you head down the road a hundred feet/30 meters the signal drops to much closer to 4g speeds. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_CTUs_2hq6Y https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_CTUs_2hq6Y
- mchristen 7y agoReminds me of Sprint's rollout of Wimax technology. It was awesome if you had direct LOS with the tower and also kept your phone perfectly still. Eventually they canned it.
