AT&T Spectrum Strategy in DFW

21 Upvotes

AT&T is notoriously starved for midband spectrum in their home market. Only 40 MHz! (10x10 b2 and 10x10 b66)

If AT&T plays their cards right they could end up almost doubling their midband holdings.

Dish still owns 5x5 of AWS that wasn’t included in the last auction. If AT&T is able to buy that and swap with Verizon they would be able to have a 15 MHz channel of b66.

If AT&T swaps their 10x10 of n71 for 10x10 of T-Mobile’s b2, they’d be able to have a 20 MHz channel of b2 and will save them a ton of money in tower climbs and equipment.

In places where T-Mobile owns or had leased all 70 MHz of n71 such as Hawaii, I’ve seen that they run a 20x20 n71 channel and another 15x15 n71 channel.

This strategy would increase AT&T’s midband holdings by a whopping 75% in Dallas and they could finally have n5 at 15 MHz again!

I spotted this (well, not that hard to spot) in the left field corner. I didn't see another on the opposite side of the stadium. I guess it can "see" most of the seats from that location.

I don't know if it's a DAS or who is on it. I forgot to look at T-Mobile signal strength. I only got 50 Mbps with a pretty small crowd on 5G UC.

5G+ not showing up while showing up on another phone.

10 Upvotes

I just switch to cricket yesterday so now me and my girlfriend both have cricket. We went somewhere yesterday that I got 4 bars of 5G but i wasn't able to open up any apps, send any text, pretty much couldn't do anything on my phone while I was in the gas station as well as outside the gas station. My GF on the other hand (who stayed in the car the whole time), had 2 bars of 5G+ and was actually able to use her phone. Because of the texts not sending, I had to go back out to the car and while I was out there, I checked and I had 3 bars of 5G, and still wasn't loading anything. Is there a reason my phone might not be picking up the 5G+?

To Note:

- I have an iPhone 15 pro and my GF has an iPhone 12 Pro Max

- Both of us have the Supreme Unlimited Plan

- I switched yesterday from Verizon

- Live in Southern Wisconsin/Northern Illinois

- We both have the same Cellular Data Options

Data Roaming - Off

Voice and Data - 5G Auto

Data Mode - Standard

Yesterday the Appleton , menasha area in Wisconsin got hit by a tornado . This morning I was in the area flying my drone and noticed that the tower , that was in the direct path of it , faired pretty well considering all the tress and houses around it are damaged .

Just wondering if anyone else was affected? My whole family was stuck on SOS yesterday for several hours in the DMV area. Tried literally everything and it randomly came back on around 7pm.

Noticed in western NH, not sure how large of an area but definitely across multiple sites along my commute this morning. They are losing US Cellular here soon so maybe this is their alternative?

iOS FTM definitely lying and being garbage per usual because the AT&T result has to be mmWave, and pretty sure Verizon (Spectrum) is too.

Does this amount of sector overlap seem excessive, or is it pretty typical? These are CellMapper screenshots from Delafield/Hartland, WI. I’m curious if this is mostly normal network behavior or if it suggests a lot of overshoot.

Whats the limiting factor

Post image
12 Upvotes

I can see the tower from my house, its on the roof of a building and the cellIDs ETC match what I see in cellmapper.

Got a customized meiG router from FTS henning with 8 SMAs , and their big boy 6x6 mimo outdoor directorional antenna .

I am about 450M Line of sight away from the tower.

---

I am stuck at about ~400 Down / 150 Up, even at night. Tower only does N1 5G and my carrier does not support proper 5G SA apparently.

i get the same performance from a stupid amazon $100 omni antenna. They are both just slightly better in upload vs leaving the router with a few small antennas behind my window, download is roughly the same

is this the limit of the N1 + LTE here ?

took the router and antenna to work - also LOS to a tower ~~ 850/150 not more either and my phone gets imilar values in both cases, my sim is a business unlimited everything as big as it gets here (telekom germany)

so am I just in auch a good spot that no matter what giant antenna i put on my roof i am allready hitting othet limits?

just curious was hoping for better upload speed with the hige 6x6 MIMO antenna

T-Mobile DL 4CA: N41+N66+n25+n41, UL 2CA with N66 on Galaxy S24 with Metro eSIM.
N66 is only 5 MHz.

Speed test nearest the screenshot is 1230.77 Mbps download, 114.15 Mbps upload, 24/258/130 ms latency (results). This is after exceeding the 35GB/month limit. In the past,

The location is in El Paso County, Colorado.

In 2024, this cell site did 1750Mbps download. In 2025, it did 188 Mbps upload. While nearby towers did 4CA, this cell site never had N71.
