It is but i always thought iphone 6 could do 2×20mhz on b41 only. Anyway has anyone else picked up CA anywhere

Speeds before aggregation were 4-5 down and 3 up so good improvement with aggregation.

If you're still using an N5, you won't. You will need a Sprint CA capable device.

Baltimore market is same way saturated, causing slow speeds on band 41 will make it better.

I know but speeds should be improving across the board.

My home tower is a clearwire site and it's still slow as molasses.

Just heard on channel 6 Action News that Verizon & AT&T are spending $47 million to quadruple cell phone capacity with small cells along Ben Franklin Parkway for the Pope's visit next month.

 

Wonder if Sprint is doing anything?  Maybe they'll bring in a COW?  1.5-2 million people are expected to gather along the Parkway for the Mass on Sunday afternoon.

[vitodonuts]

Theres been lots of workers working on the adjacent sprint towers at th airport.

[vitodonuts]

Finally hit close to 100 down in Philadelphia metro

When I first had had sprint I had found them well awful at the time barely got a few kilobytes on evdo nor did i get wimax on my evo 3d at the time. Would anyone say that sprint has gotten way better than they used to be a year or two ago? Inside the gym I visit where I find I use most of my data I'm only getting one or two bars of LTE on at&t so I don't know if going with sprint would be a good option. Thank you and reading over this forum has been a fun and informational read.
