Think, my understanding of deprioritization is that it is directly related to congestion regardless of network plan levels. Now if one has a higher tier plan, during congestion you would still have a usable signal, just lower.
Prior to the area becoming congested (7-8 AM) or weekend holidays, I had usable signals on the order of -85 to -90 dBm. Afterwards, that would drop to under -100 or become completely non existent. After installing the booster I consistently saw -70 to -85 or so. It took some effort to dial it in because it was a YAGI antenna.
What I can't figure out is why I didn't have any problems prior to 2019. Was 5G construction being started?

BTW, I also had AT&T then.
