Huh, so, apparently, T-Mobile is starting to consider turning down their LTE network, with the idea that other carriers may follow. This seems weird to me for a few reasons:

  • As far as I understand, there still isn’t really a good #LTE cat-M replacement story in the 5G-NR world? There’s 5G #RedCap / NR-Light, but I don’t know of any readily available RedCap modems, and I feel like that’s more in the LTE cat1bis class than in the catM1 class. What happens there in a post-LTE-shutdown world?
  • Also, I thought this was the whole point of #DSS / dynamic spectrum sharing – you’d be able to reallocate bandwidth between LTE and 5G/NR on the same channel, and the PHY for NR was designed to be able to run at the same time as a LTE PHY. (Though in reality, it didn’t really work, maybe?) What went wrong here that does not allow a ‘lifeline’ LTE service to run on every NR channel? One wonders if NR’s PHY is futureproofed against this.
  • I am just a sparky and my understanding of radio access technologies is pretty limited. If anyone actually knows, or knows someone who might actually know, I would be very curious to hear…

    Exclusive: T-Mobile Will Soon Begin LTE Phase-Out

    Shutting down LTE already? It seems T-Mobile is aiming to quickly become the first "5G Only" carrier with a planned phase-out of LTE.

    This word has taken on a very different meaning today.

    In #Pathfinder1e #Ustalav tonight the party is on their way back to Sen's Pass. They encountered a #redcap #fey on the border of #Versex and #Amaans. The halfling rogue shot the redcap's cap with a called shot, and when it went to retrieve the cap (that had been carried 40 feet on the arrow), the party cleric channeled positive energy to heal the party while the redcap was out of range. The redcap, at under half its health, decided to hunt easier prey.
