Suspicious service connectivity
This might sound weird, but I think AT&T is somehow manipulating my service connectivity. The reason I think this is because for some time now, my service at home has been very bad. However, recently, I started looking up this issue online, and whenever I do, my service suddenly gets better.
For example, I look up “att service bad”, and all of a sudden I go from 1 bar to 3 bars with 5G+.
My hypothesis is that they want me to get back on a home internet plan. We recently cancelled our home internet, and ever since then I’ve been having connectivity issues.
Idk, it’s just weird that I can see this behavior in a predictable pattern now!

That would be weird, but is certainly not related. The big issue is 5G. They pushed so many to adopt it that the infrastructure is overwhelmed in many areas as they catch up the improvements. Also it appears many of those phones like to prioritize 5G even if 4G LTE would be a much better connection at that time.
So they aren't manipulating the connection in the way your paranoia thinking is leading you to believe. But the implementation of 5G is a problem, on top of any area specific issues.

Same. When it is optimized, 5G is very good. But 5G infrastructure is not growing as fast as those using it. Wonder how long it will take for that to balance out.

Dang, that makes sense! I hope that they’re able to improve things if this is the case.
