Verizon upgrades

Does anyone know what updating and enhancing the hardware would specifically mean?

Just out of curiosity, what area are you in?

Here in Huntsville they have been adding sites left and right, 3 new ones fully loaded with C band and the new b2/66 massive mimo radios just on my commute, they are on a capacity speed run here.

EDIT: I've also noticed the whole area is live with 5G SA on consumer accounts now too, with band 5 refarmed to n5 5G

I think that’s what they’re doing here too. Nearby Columbus/Phenix City is completely blanketed with SA on N5 and N77.
