Three shaping speed

Not that it affects me significantly…
For quite some time now observed my speed on 4G (not 4G+, nor 5G) settle down to ~ 40DL/50UL in day-to-day use.
Takes me to apply "load"(initializing 2-3 speed test simultaneously or big file download) for speed to "boost up" to, what i suspect, my mast is limited for on 4G(highest ever 192.xxDL)
It stay for some undefined time(depending no load duration perhaps?) "boosted", then settle down again till load applied once again. Router reboot/APN change makes no difference.
Boost to kick-in might take some time
x2 above is 200MB size tests
I am exploiting B3 in my area to mast limits i guess, no CA with my/three setup/hardware on B3 - Huawei B818, no external antenna.Will try external antenna that i have(had been using for access to another mast) to see if it makes difference, but have doubts it will.
5G(on ZTE MC801A) quite close in regards speeds with max DL being lower than 4G and UL higher( ~ 140/80 ), but stay more steady in this range.
