 I would like to ask about LTE-M communication latency when using nRF9151-DK. I am using a TCP connection to transfer data read from another device via UART (MTU=1500 B), but communication is significantly slower than Wi-Fi, with high latency</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Wed, 17 Dec 2025 13:42:53 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/126174/nrf9151-dk---slow-tcp-communication-high-latency" /><item><title>RE: nRF9151-DK - Slow TCP communication, high latency</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/557224?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 17 Dec 2025 13:42:53 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:46a3890a-4d7b-43c4-adc6-08bb576abc2a</guid><dc:creator>Samruddhi Jadhav</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What you are observing seems reasonable. According to the &lt;a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/nwp_044/page/WP/nwp_044/lte_technology.html"&gt;LTE Technology documentation&lt;/a&gt;, the LTE-M latency is about 50-100ms and LTE-M isn&amp;#39;t designed for very low latency like Wi-Fi. For NB-IoT it is 1.5-10s. The reason for the additional delay is that LTE-M passes through a mobile core network. So, LTE-M doesn&amp;#39;t behave like Wi-Fi and therefore, it will be slower.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hope this helps.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
