Hello Nater - FYI, the key difference in speeds from the Peplink 5G routers to the Chester 5G router is the modem hardware. The current Peplink 5G routers only use the Qualcomm X55 modem, whereas the Chester router uses the improved Qualcomm X62 modem. While both can do 5x Carrier Aggregation (Cat 19/20), the X55 modem can only do 1x 5G Carrier Aggregation (e.g. ONLY xSA 25/41/71). The X62 modem can do 2x 5G Carrier Aggregation (e.g. xSA 25 + 41, 41 + 71, etc.). Your video does show the 2x 5G CA in the Chester router, and thus the reason only 1x 5G option with the Peplink routers. Hope that helps with better understanding of what band options are available with each router in your testing. Also to note: Nokia Gateway = 1x 5G CA | Sagecom/Arcadyan = 2x 5G CA

Seems like n25 + n41 5G SA 2CC and then B4 + n41 + B2 5G NSA are the best options for network speed in your location. n71 seems to be your worst band there, aside from contributing well for upload speed and coverage. The carriers need to add band selection to their included routers. It could probably save them from customer churn. Those Peplink devices are very neat!! Great video. 👍🏻

They don’t add that extra stuff because they’re telling the government and the FCC that these are hotspot devices, which with how they’re configured is true. Verizon has the upper hand there because of their spectrum agreement they can tell the manufacturer to add no restrictions because of their different Quality of service guarantee that’s entirely separate from their cell phone data. On c band you’re already locked to their best bands in that area, on mmWave they give you an entirely different box cuz the tower is right under you.

My number one question is same band signal metrics - Chester vs KVD21. First floor KVD21 bands showed B2 & N71. That is what my KVD21 shows. My signal varies considerably with LTE better than 5g (2.1 miles from the nearest tower). So will the Chester receive a better signal? For a reference my only internet option before I finally was able to sign up for T-mobile was a local provider, 5M down and 1.5 up for $65/month. But that was a blessing after 28k with a modem over POTS. Thanks for all the videos.

Hey Ken, I specifically opted for "same location" not signal metrics as I think its more applicable to an end user. You aren't going to drive towards your tower to get the same signal metrics with a device. You're going to place it in/near the same spot of your house. The real speed difference with the Chester or other 3rd party devices is the ability to band lock, 5G SA and multiple band 5G CA.

Was wondering if that has been your experience? As the crow flies our tower is about 1/2 mile away but is in the middle of 4 truck stops just off the highway. In addition to using the gateway for my home, I stream races at a dirt track in the same location that can go anywhere from 5 -9 hours. Add to that all the spectators that constantly have cell phones going on occasion I see signal strength dropping to the point of the stream disconnecting. Wondering if I should just go to the business plan or invest in one of these pricey modem/antennae setups. I thought about adding the pigtails to my trash can but think they might be a bit too fragile since I have to move the modem from the rv to the control tower every week. Any thoughts?

Looking for the at commands for the chester 5g router
1 mile but that's not the most important factor in speed.

cool for nerds or ppl without spending limits or isp options, but for me the whole point of being on tmo is its cheap. i already have better more expensive isp options here (cable, supposedly fiber coming soon) so spending 600 on a antenna is def defeating the point lol

A one time payment for a device you get to keep is far different from paying double every month in perpetuity to simply use a service.... and you spread the equipment cost over the length of time you use t-mobile

I just ordered the business gateway to replace one of my home gateways, going to see if the sim is hot swap able. The Chester device looks really similar to the wg1608d with a 502q-ae modem running a custom version of golden orb. Ive been interested in the peplink products for awhile. What do you think is a better product, the balance 20x with the 5g flex mod or the max br1 5g? I am currently running my home version on an mr6150 and see speeds of 300-500 all day long in the rural country, only thing i got going for me currently is a highway tower about a mile away with decent line of sight.

At current time I can't recommend the Balance 20x due to it being slow relative to it's peers (significantly so!). I think its firmware or perhaps even defective but the MAX BR1 Pro 5G is great and fast so I can recommend that. The Chester 5G Router so far has tested even faster the MAX BR1 but it does lack some of the other features the Peplink offers (but it is 1/2 the price...). If buying new, consider using my coupons!

Anyone know if the Chesters device can be used in a bridge mode? More so using their newer modem with a different router on a home network with multiple ISPs.

It doesnt appear to have a full bridge mode. Does have DMZ and IPv6.

yes and no. you need tmobile business 5g internet for the peplink and you can pay $3tmo for a static IP to allow it. or do it thru VPN or reverse proxy or other ways.
