Bloosurf, the 99th largest fixed wireless access (FWA) provider in the U.S., is raising concerns about interference from T-Mobile\u2019s 5G network in Maryland. The FWA company has requested the FCC to freeze the 2.5GHz spectrum licenses that T-Mobile acquired in September 2022 through FCC auction 108.<\/p>\n
In a recent filing with the FCC, Bloosurf highlighted that T-Mobile\u2019s 5G signals are causing co-channel interference, leading to disconnections and reduced broadband speeds for its customers. This interference poses a risk to essential services like voice\/911 connectivity and broadband access provided by Bloosurf.<\/p>\n
Founded in 2009, Bloosurf operates a 4G FWA network using 2.5GHz and 3.5GHz CBRS spectrum across approximately 15 cell sites in Maryland. Despite efforts to collaborate with T-Mobile on resolving the interference issue, Bloosurf claims that T-Mobile misled them during testing by concealing its ongoing 5G transmissions near Bloosurf\u2019s network.<\/p>\n
As the largest FWA provider in the U.S., T-Mobile serves nearly five million customers, positioning it as the sixth-largest Internet service provider (ISP) in the country. However, Bloosurf\u2019s appeal to halt T-Mobile\u2019s 5G transmissions and block its spectrum licenses underscores the importance of addressing interference concerns for smaller FWA operators like Bloosurf.<\/p>\n
