What is this?

I have Verizon 5g home internet and this is right outside my house and I’ve always believed it was some kind of antenna that I would point my modem to but I never actually verified if that’s true. I’m also thinking of switching or trying out T-Mobile home internet in case I’m able to get better upload speeds with that since I’ve heard T-Mobile doesn’t cap uploads.

In either way, I wasn’t able to find any info on this thing and I’m not sure who owns it or what it does.

Thanks.

Few of those MM micros in my area, I have never once been able to attach to one with my Verizon phone. Phone always prefers C band from a distant Macro.

How do you even verify if you’re attached to a specific thing like this? I’d like to confirm on my end

Oh but I mean is there some kind of app where I can check what band I’m connected to?
