For 5G to offer an experience that's noticeably better than 4G, it needs broad, dedicated channels, ideally 50MHz or wider. Enter C-Band, the frequency that may save 5G in the US. By Sascha Segan A half-dozen companies are ready to potentially spend $80 billion for C-Band, a new set of airwaves that promise to fix the perilous state of American 5G. That's a vast amount of money, and it shows how important C-Band is. But what is C-Band, and what does it mean for 5G? Do you need a C-Band phone? Is C-Band a new frequency? Should you be scared of C-Band? I can explain. https://www.pcmag.com/news/what-is-c-band ------------------------------ Message-ID: <ac2dnQLXTsgdwHfCnZ2dnUU7-KHNnZ2d@giganews.com> Date: 28 Dec 2020 17:34:40 -0500 From: Retired <retired@home.com> Subject: Re: Every Device On This T-Mobile Network Upgrade List Stops Working Soon On 12/27/20 11:36 PM, Moderator wrote: > By Kaelin Dickerson > December 22, 2020 > > According to internal documents obtained by Android Police 19 devices > on T-Mobile will cease to work starting next month.

So I searched and found a 4G bar phone I like to replace the Rally, adding the Rally to my collection of doorstops by Nokia, Motorola, & Blu ;-) ------------------------------ ********************************************* End of telecom Digest Wed, 30 Dec 2020
