MNT Pocket Reform As A Cellphone Replacement - A Cyberpunk 2077 Inspired Saga Of Component Hunting, Debugging, And Nerdy Joy

hey i just had a “huh, i wonder” moment and thought to test my speeds on my phone, and i only got 1-2mbps myself. do you have your old phone still to test the speed difference? because if it’s significant and you can find the exact frequencies that phone operates on and the general RF setup you could mirror it on the Pocket or at least use it as a starting point.

if there’s not a huge difference then it’s less about achieving parity and more about optimising the Pocket which for the purposes of anyone replicating this would matter quite a lot.

okay! updates: there must have something up with my local cell tower at the time because now I’m getting 80Mbps down. I’m still only getting ~1Mpbs up, so I’m betting that is an antenna issue.

that’s awesome!

absolutely reply here what you find if you mess with it more, I’m excited to find out what you figure out
