5G service unreliable in upper Edgemont area of North Vancouver

Anyone else in this area find 5G doesn't work well here?  3G works fine fortunately, but 5G flaky and phone callers cannot hear what I say.  It looks like the 5G equipment is less powerful than the 3G equipment.

I'm using an iPhone 13 max.

The Edgemont area is very nice but when it snows. Tough to get around until the DNV plows the roads.

  • Thanks for the map. We are just off the map to the north but it does look like we are on the edge of 5G service.

Depending on where in Edgemont area. Telus didn’t buildout 5G around the Edgemont area.

Here is the 5G/4G/LTE/3G map:

Data seems OK on 5G even though I only get 1 to 2 bars signal strength (versus 4 bars on 3G).

HI @IanB2 

if 3G works for voice and not 5G, it is a problem with VoLTE.  Some people find VoLTE is not as good as 3G for voice in some area, you might need to change it to 3G when you are there

But how is it for data?
