Ehrpd? LTE Underway?

[digiblur]

Part of me wonders if the LTE 800 FIT will be in BTR? It makes sense with their site spacing. However, they can only deploy LTE 800 in a place where they can shut off all iDEN traffic. Unless they shunt it all in the area to 900. Which I guess they could do.

Possibly...I can't think of any area in this market where there is CDMA but no iDen coverage. It's the other way around since the Synergy upgrade/co-lo project kinda skipped this market.

 

They could just hold back on rolling out 800 1X for a bit and do some 800 LTE testing though. Which in some ways I hope and some I hope they don't do since we desperately need the 800 1X coverage.

What the hell is iDen? Lmao... I'm a noob

I see what you did there

I have started to pick up ehrpd in the Lake Charles area since Tuesday

[pokefan02]

As of today, the towers that I was getting eHRPD signals on are now back to EVDO-A but with lower pings and higher speedtests. Two of these towers I was getting 500kbps max and now they are consistently 500 to 1000 kbps

My direct fiber connection at work can get sub 10ms pings some times. Best ping ever? 4ms. Seems impossible. The speed test server in ABQ must be immediately adjacent to our backbone connection point. Because if I run a speed test server in Texas, it will jump to the 20-30ms range.

 

It blows my mind to have latency this fast. Even 100ms is really fast if you think about it.

Take a look at this 2ms ping.

 

 

Did a speedtest in my office the other day and was blown away at both the ping and speeds.

It seems speeds are increasing somewhat & I hear LTE has been speed test here.

If you decide to move to a Google Fiber area I would be interested to see the connection speeds there as well.. hehehe
