Carrier Aggregation on Airtel 4G LTE

[RummaanKhan]

Sadly,.i am porting my primary number from Airtel to Jio because three months ago Airtel done some modifications to the nearest tower after that i am getting only -100 to -110dbm signal earlier it was -90dbm in band 40. Speeds also dropped to 3Mbps in peak hours.

Jio built a new tower in my area and it is the nearest tower to my house than Airtel. And i am getting -80dbm in band 40 inside my house. Also it has fiber backhaul.

Jio's Signal is -105dB and still I get up to 25Mbps and 10+ Mbps during peak hours.

Yes they powered down 2300mhz

Same here Band 40 was like -85 db with 25+ Don't but now it's -90db with like 10-15 Sinr. Three months ago they added a new equipment for LTE Band 1 and Now I get those Higher Signal strength with Band 1 and both Band 3 and Band 40 gives less Signal.

Yes they powered down 2300Mhz so that we will get 2100Mhz instead of 2300Mhz. Once they get band 8 i.e 900mhz in upcoming spectrum auction same thing will happen.

Earlier

Now

Although they slightly increased the signal strength to -105dbm after complaining it is not good as it was before. So locked the LTE bands to 1,3.

yes jio is also good in over all pan india coverage.while travelling only jio was able to give signal almost 90 percent.airtel,vil,bsnl their 2G networks were also not able to give that signal.

Yes in all most all railway station a jio site will be present near it.

 

[RummaanKhan]

Even in Hill stations Jio's Band 5 signal is present everywhere even in places where there is no Airtel and BSNL 2G networks.

@Ak5877 holy shit! What were the speeds? This is the first time i have seen 50mhz

 

[Deleted member 75747]

Speeds were just around 37Mbps with play store due to poor Sinr as i was in train.

@Ak5877 holy shit! What were the speeds? This is the first time i have seen 50mhz

But i think in late night or early morning hours it can go very high if we are near cell tower with good sinr.
