Super Bowl Bringing Better Cell Coverage to Minnesota

AT&T announced yesterday that they will be launching their new 5G service in the Twin Cities just in time for the Super Bowl on February, 4th.

Minneapolis is one of 20 cities that are getting the faster and more reliable coverage by the end of the year.

“We’re excited about launching this new wireless network in Minneapolis in the coming months as we move towards standards-based mobile 5G,” said Marachel Knight, senior vice president, Wireless Network Architecture and Design.

AT&T is claiming that in lab tests, the new 5G service is "reaching speeds up to 14 gigabits-per-second."

No word on when this service will be coming to the Twin Ports, but I suspect it won't be too long.
