Are the 7.1.1 April update radios awesome, or what??

I'm hoping this isn't just a fluke or some fringe side benefit of joining Project Fi, but Wi-Fi on my 6 with the 45R baseband from the April update has been incredible. There's a weak and underpowered Wi-Fi set up in one of the departments in our store that my 6 never could connect to before. In fact, 75% of the time every phone that goes up against it (Samsungs, iPhones, a new 6P I just got today--whatever) fails at obtaining an IP address. After the April update, my 6 not only connects to it quickly; it also claims its signal strength is "Excellent" (which is either just a boldfaced lie or some rudeboy bragging).

Anybody else seeing improved performance?
