Anyone on this ATT network for first responders? How good is it? My workplace is offering me to use this network. I am currently on Verizon and pretty happy with them.

I have iPhone 12 PM, which is compatible with FirstNet.

Is it as good as it says on the website? Good signal strength?
 
ive had Verizon for about 10 years and had at&t before that. just switched to FirstNet today after they came to my work for a few days to offer us a switch. I got a SIM to test for a few days and was seeing 200+ mbps down when I ran sped tests at work on regular LTE. thought something was fishy, so I did speed tests along my whole 45 minute highway ride home to the sticks and was constantly getting over 100+ along the way, which was higher than my Verizon on both LTE/5G. I would only see speeds like that on Verizon in some spots and only at night.

my FirstNet account is provisioned for 5G and show to be in an att 5G area, but haven't seen 5G yet, but have seen 5Ge. so far im happy with the service in my area, as its comparable to Verizon, and the speeds were about the same on download and upload.
