I’m not sure how to setup NSA vs SA, when I look under the Cellular tab, I see the following options in the: 5G/LTE/3G
Drop down box which has: `5G SA, LTE, LTE/5G/3G, but no NSA option.
Is that configured elsewhere?
Thanks Rick will take those suggestions!

Latest speed test this AM. I get around 20-30mbps 6am-10am generally I’ve noticed this week. Then it gets better.
Ok so maybe you only have extended range (band 12/71) available with limited upload bandwidth. Have you looked at cellmapper to see what tower segments you should be able to see?
I’m on band n41 far as I can tell from the peplink.
CellMapper, didn’t do a percise location, but the nearest tower on the map near my house looks to be the following
So I looked up the area, TMo only has 20MHz cells in band 41, so max upload would likely be ~23Mbps, getting 1/3 of cell max isn’t actually that bad, it’s just what’s available in that area unfortunately.
Yah, I figured it’s just what it is. Internet in the PHX area is horrible across the board. I’m amazed T-Mobile is doing as well as it is.
I’m sure over time the 5G towers will improve or increase.
Thanks everyone!
I am using Tmobile too, First I love Peplink it offers some features that others competitors do not, but the hardware is incredible slow compared to other manufactures. A picture is worth 1000 words These are two routers 15ft away from each other
I don’t think it’s the hardware on my side. I get sporadic download speeds from 30-170mbps just depends on time of the day. I hear from others in PHX that internet (all of them) suck this way.
But I canceled CenturyLink today and using the T-Mobile 5G as primary home internet. Can’t beat the price. So far been fast enough for my needs.
Before the peplink, I was toying with building a RasberryPi system and just run OpenWRT, but figured my time can be better spent elsewhere.
The best speed on max br1 pro 5GN around 420Mbps
