AT&T Breaks 5G
I like AT&T as a brand or a company because it has been here for a long time and has a lot to offer for the public so with them on 5G just make it better for them as a whole the way the run business.

Re: AT&T Breaks 5G
@clrmoney I agree, and I think its customer service has improved exponentially. I called a few days ago to cancel one of my phone numbers and the rep was as nice as could be, informing me that since I was a loyal customer since 2005, she would upgrade all my devices to 6 Gigs at no extra charge.

@clrmoney, count me in as well! I think AT&T is a smart company that has both the strategic vision and is building the capabilities to deliver what they are promising. They don't try to be all things to all people.

At the risk of sounding redundant, I echo everyone else's sentiments. A few years ago I was ready to leave AT&T, now they are a company that I think is worth paying a little more for.

Re: AT&T Breaks 5G
@afwrtier I agree. I'm so much happier with the level of service I get with AT&T than what I experienced with TMobile. There's no way I'd ever go back to TMobile -- even if they'd offer me the service completely free. The lack of customer service and downright mishandling of customer needs is not worth it!

I wonder if it will be left standing after the bruising merger battle it has begun with the Justice Department. It will be distracting from the fun transformation battles no doubt.

Re: AT&T Breaks 5G
All you guys make AT&T sound like a really great company. Other than that I don't know much about their quality of service, but based on that it seems like AT&T will come in strong with 5G. The service to the customer is most important and it looks like they know it well.

AT&T 5G
AT&T has truly proved to be a leader in the technology industry. The company can no longer be viewed as just a phone company. It is an innovative company and a major player in the tech world. I am glad that AT&T is forging ahead with 5G trials. I can't wait for 5G. I need more speed now!

5G Speeds
Being able to achieve wireless speeds of 1.2 Gbps in a 400 MHz channel is a huge success. Kudos to AT&T for this accomplishment. I am waiting for high speeds that can be achieved 5 miles from a specific location. Conducting a test based based on various conditions such as high user usage, weather conditions, technical issues, power outages, foliage, underground and specific building materials for distances of 5 miles or more would be remarkable.

AT&T 5G Barriers
Is is possible to achieve fixed wireless 5G ranges longer that 150 meters which is a very short distange. Also, will 5G work as well in remote and rural areas as it does in more highly populated areas and major cities.
