I can't even get up to 30 mbps in upper Manhattan on B41. I feel alot of triband phones are being added each and every day. Which is great. Just surprised you can pull a 60 in such a dense area.

mc_gusto Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I have yet to hit above 37, I just want to hit it once. (what's the theoretical upload speed of band 25 and band 41 again?) Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mc_gusto Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 This has been my fastest b41 test. Which is great, but just want Crack the 37 mark once. Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deval Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Was at Yankee Stadium last night for the game, and I have to say, disappointed by the network there. We had B25 from the macro coming into the bleachers, but the throughput was so bad that I ended up switching to 3G only to upload pictures. I can't wait for 2.5 to show up there, would make life much easier on us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Nexus 5 I use both. For me the difference has been negligible so far. But will keep trying both.

mc_gusto Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Ok I'm in times Square right niw. I'm pretty impressed how well its holding b41. Still no 37. But very impressed as opposed to what I've been experiencing in upper Manhattan. Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk I find that speed itself with a decent server is between 5-10mb faster on ookla, also the pings are worlds better..

mc_gusto Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Yeah the pings are always better on Ookla. But i do like mapping the speedtest on sensorly. Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpenceSouth Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Welcome to NYC! Your running on .15 radio? Naturally lol. Haven't seen any B26 but I'm on the lookout.

Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk I think you'll be hard pressed to find B26, maybe a bit too soon. Its also gotten to the point where B25 signal is too strong for me to even pick up B41. We need that update like yesterday! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk Maybe it's different being in New York, but I know that I always see a 3-10Mbps difference, as well as a huge difference on Pings between Sensorly and Ookla.

I'm honestly not sure once you get the update it's going to help on the Nexus 5. Even with my HTC One max I get stuck on band 25, it doesn't lock onto Band 41 until the signal degrades. I don't know if that's due to them doing software updates here in certain parts of the city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing about the Nexus 5 is that B41 is always last to be scanned..so no matter what! It wont connect unless B25 is lower than -110dBm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc_gusto Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Well look what I found too! This time in upper Manhattan. Might be coming across from the Bronx though. Great day for b26. Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk Its possible its coming from either the bronx or Washington heights! Or it could possibly be a cluster launch! What kind of speeds were you getting? Considering your signal is pretty good, Id bet on a Manhattan site.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transitwatch889 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 There is band 26 in upper Manhattan I am pretty sure I connected for a split second on my commute downtown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
