I am truly hoping for “software program solely” answer, a bit change: USE BOTH. WiFi and 5G, one thing that may say:
use 5G at all times to spice up the WiFi
Or possibly some machine studying (if / else assertion), realizing the precise distance from the router, and if elevated by 5 meters within the final 2 seconds routinely fireplace up 5G.
Positively doable. Am I lacking one thing apparent?
5G/LTE ≠ WiFi
I do not imply to sound dismissive or flippant, however sure, you’re lacking one thing fairly apparent: a elementary understanding of the variations between 5G/LTE and WiFi bands (radio frequencies). You are additionally lacking the basics of routing and having a multi-homed community.
The one factor these two applied sciences have in frequent is that they use RF because the transmission medium. The applied sciences and protocols to get related to are vastly completely different. To additional complicate this, you may’t (should not) have two unbiased gateways to the Web (multi-homed gateway) working concurrently. From a purely networking perspective (ignoring the radio transmission portion of this), having to connections introduces all types of points like which interface is visitors routed by, how does the firewall deal with the classes created, and many others.
use 5G at all times to spice up the WiFi
It isn’t clear what you are making an attempt to perform right here because the applied sciences are too disparate for one to “increase” one other. That is like saying you desire a bike to spice up your automobile – it is senseless.
Connecting iPhone to each WiFi community and 4G/5G concurrently…Somebody requested a while in the past and I can’t imagine it’s not sorted…
It’s/was sorted, already. The Apple Dialogue you linked has been, in actual fact, answered (accurately) and it applies to this query as properly:
You may’t concurrently have a number of Web connections. This has nothing to do with the present date or whether or not other people expertise the difficulty – just one gateway (connection to the Web) energetic at any time. It comes all the way down to you having two completely different radio bands (2.4/5Ghz spectrum and GSM/LTE), each performing because the default route in your Web visitors. Nothing goes to “change” till it turns into disconnected.
…Or possibly some machine studying (if / else assertion), realizing the precise distance from the router, and if elevated by 5 meters within the final 2 seconds routinely fireplace up 5G.
Even when this have been a believable answer, *simply how are you anticipating to function on the firmware stage to implement this “machine studying algorithm” (rhetorical)?
The issue in a nutshell…
…as I stroll across the backyard, it loses the connection. The straightforward workaround is to have WiFi extender. I am truly hoping for “software program solely” answer,
That’s the reply: a WiFi extender.
The issue you are making an attempt to unravel is a weak sign at a particlar location in your backyard. It may very well be from simply the placement or you will have sufficient corregated steel and/or rooster wire strung in that space such that there is a faraday cage impact being created. Till a correct website survey may be executed, we are able to solely guess. However, what we do know is that your telephone has a bodily impediment in making a robust and clear connection to the WiFi radio(s). It is a bodily downside and the answer must be a bodily.
TL;DR
Somebody requested a while in the past and I can’t imagine it’s not sorted: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/254808545?sortBy=greatest
It has been sorted – get a WiFi extender. You are over complicating issues with this handoff kind change on the node fairly than on the community. Switching networks (two utterly completely different networks at that) just isn’t so simple as chances are you’ll suppose it’s. Every part from the IP, the DNS, the saved session states throughout the firewall will all break once you change on this method.
