Carrier Aggregation on Airtel 4G LTE

[Deleted member 75747]

Airtel should also cap the speed in heavy congestion areas during peak hours.they should cap it to 50mbps.As in metrocities i have noticed airtel speed goes down to 0.5mbps.even Jio speed goes down to 0.5 to 1mbps in metro cities during peak hours in many locations

In Chennai Airtel goes down in lots of places after 6pm. I think as the towers are linked with Microwave every towers becomes slow at the same time and the ping goes as high as 380ms.

But in case of Jio if Band 40 becomes Slow becoz all the users latch to Band 40 Everytime So the Band 3 and Band 5 remains fast all the time so Switching bands helps.

yes.switching bands help a lot thats why i even rooted samsung.

My Nokia isn't rooted but whenever I download something or start a speed test it automatically latches to Band 3 or Band 5 as primary

Yes i saw its possible bro a device which does not support CA can also get up 150Mbps speed down and 50Mbps up.But i think that site is not congested atall.and must be very near to the phone.Its a very rare case though.

I'm sure It's not Possible with Band 40 you can get Max 100Mbps on TDD LTE. Only if Airtel has Band 3 with 20Mhz it's possible.

 

[Deleted member 75747]

Yes and i don,t think airtel has b3 20mhz any where.

Yes they have got maximum 15Mhz in AP Circle after merging Telenor
