No, but I can tell you AT&T's 5g is currently the slowest 5g out of all the networks. Here in Baton Rouge, it is actually slower than LTE. I have a phone with 5g and I have it turned off because it is slower (and uses more power). The speeds will improve over time, but for now I'd say stay away. This is a nationwide issue with ATT, just google it.

Wireless into your home to go wireless again? Just get a wired internet into your WiFi.

I currently have DSL, which gets me 5-6 Mbps. I was wondering what rate any of the current users are getting on 5G. If it's better than 5-6 it would be another option for me. Thanks for the info.

I have dsl as well in a rural area. I'm lucky to get 3mbps and it's very spotty when multiple devices are on wifi. I have a better connection when I hoptspot from my phone on 4g

frick AT&T and anything and anyone associated with that shithole of a crooked arse company.

If presented with any other option over AT&T, take the other option.

Yes, I have it here in Ohio with AT&T. I'm in a rural area. No DSL, no cable. It has been a godsend. I have another wireless provider (not cellular based) and I get 5M max dl with it. 5g is getting me about 100M dl and that was measured while streaming a football game.

I already have AT&T for my cell phones so it just shows up as another line. I had to by the modem, about $100.

I should add there is an ATT tower less than a mile away so that helps.
