The topic of “number of users” was once an issue and perhaps still is today at the main station in Zurich. Otherwise, probably no. All locations are also connected via fiber optics. Hence no. Remote diagnosis is therefore difficult. The transmission power may be significantly reduced or or or.

@DerEichberger

Well, I would be happy for now. Why do you always complain? I mean, before you had hardly any reception and now you had full signal strength. The speed test values ​​aren’t that bad either. I’ve seen much worse. You also have to see, I rarely have more than 1Gbit’s and seriously, people, for what???

It may also be that the fiber optic connection of this antenna is not yet ready and therefore you cannot yet benefit from the increased speed.

I observed a similar thing in Biglen / BE shortly after commissioning, although there was a 4/4 bar signal but not yet the usual 5G speed.

A few weeks later the turbo was fired and you get >1GBit/s download.

In the beginning, the fiber optic cable may not have been spliced ​​and the system ran over a copper line.

According to OFCOM, the system in Eichberg does not have any adaptive antennas. The location data sheet also comes from a time when the band n78 frequencies had not yet been auctioned -> The band n78 is not approved at this location. (5G band n78 = 5G+ in Swisscom jargon = the fast 5G)

With the speed test we can come to the conclusion that no n78 antennas were installed here. The speed remains at LTE level, no matter what the status bar shows.

Most likely you are using 5G band n1 in DSS mode (5G in Swisscom jargon, 4G and 5G share the bandwidth). Do a speed test with 4G and 5G. The values ​​will be very similar.

At Swisscom, n1 runs at 20MHz, although they could also run it at 30MHz. So you have no bandwidth advantages over LTE Band 1. (LTE supports a maximum of 20MHz bandwidth, 5G up to 100MHz)

Can you post a picture of the antenna?

I have photos of the antenna. I live under the antenna. I was up on the roof and took photos of them. But I somehow can’t upload it here. Lg

@Wiheupau19

In your photo you can see that you have WiFi switched on and it’s a bad one

Do you have mobile reception?

Did you turn off the WLAN when measuring the speed and was the mobile network display on full display?

Hi Walter,

this photo is just a screenshot from my phone. I was in my apartment and had the WiFi turned on. I probably won’t have WiFi on the roof since my apartment is on the ground floor in this apartment building.

Yesterday I tested the speed test once with and once without WiFi. Without WiFi I had 213 Mb/s and with WiFi I had 320Mb/s. And without WiFi I had 4 or even 5 bars. - That was never the case before the antenna. lg

After all, Swisscom is the only provider that has an antenna in this location.

Ok, the speed isn’t exactly a hit, but with other providers you probably wouldn’t have a better reception there.

I’m plagued with Sunrise for business, so I have to be lucky if I have any network at all, usually it’s barely more than 25 Mbit/s, regardless of whether it’s 4G or 5G.

With Swisscom, 4G is usually faster, but with 5G it really takes off.

Yes, before that I was at Sunrise too, and in some cases I had no reception at all. We should get fiber optics in the apartment. I think I will then be happy with the internet at home.
