Are you able to connect while outside in those areas?

Nope, the only time I’ve ever connected to 5G since I switched to the newer plan was tonight around the Eaton Centre in Toronto

 

Before I thought it might be a problem with my phone but I guess Koodo/Telus towers must be configured differently down there or they are testing something?  Other times I’ve been in that area in the past month I didn’t get 5G either. 

 

Anyone from Koodo/Telus able to look into this?

You are likely to have better luck speaking with friends and family on Koodo/Telus and see if they can get 5G in the area.  Or visit a Koodo/Telus store in the area

Is there a way to see what 5G bands are available on a nearby tower?

If you are using an Android phone, download the netmonster app from Google Play. It should be able to scan available bands in your area.
