Next group of rumored cities to launch Tmobile LTE

That is nothing more than coincidence due to site distance. The other operators simply have at least one closer site -- possibly, all three are collocated on the same site. In other locations, the shoe will be on the other foot, as Sprint has the closer site. And that is just one of the vagaries of wireless service.

True AJ,

I do know we have AT&T antennas

On my job site. As for the other 3 careers? I don't know where their antennas are located

Have you at least used our maps to determine where the closest Sprint sites are located?

I've hit 29 Mbps down, 3.5 Mbps up over DC-H+, though at the moment I'm "only" getting 15/3 (could be due to the older radio that I flashed on my Nexus 4 to get back LTE support). Still waiting on LTE, though I'm told it's coming very, very soon here. I half expect it to be slower than the top speeds on H+, at least for downloads, because they may go with a 5MHz carrier here (hopefully not though).

I think there is some QoS going on as many of us seem to be rate limited to about 15.5Mbps on the downlink on HSPA+42. Could be account related, as there seem to be some prioritization of 5 and 10GB plans over unlimited/unthrottled. 15Mbps is still noting to cry about.

    • Tbh not that surprising. Every ISP seems to want to have an MVNO to pitch to their customers to make them stickier and maybe make some money in the process. And unlike USCC the MVNO should be able to cover TDS's entire wireline area, with infrastructure costs that are borne by someone else. Entertaining, yes. Surprising, not really...particularly when competing against Comcast or Spectrum, or even eventually T-Mobile fixed + mobile. This also strengthens my bet that they'll rebrand all their fixed wireless stuff as TDS, as that runs on spectrum they're keeping for now.
    • No? RCS on Google messages works great for me, messages between anyone with RCS enabled go through with no problems. Don't remember the last time I had an issue. I only have issues with people on iPhones on different carriers from T-Mobile.
    • Has anyone experienced a ridiculous amount of difficulty with Google messages with RCS enabled?  It has been a train wreck for me for the past year so I now use WhatsApp.  That works very well for all of us.... Android and iOS.  
    • Probably not worth the fiddling given that that's a few percent of the band. Also, if they really wanted to push my assumption is there are still guard bands in play for the n41 carriers so they could fit two "100 MHz" carriers into 194 MHz anyway. Looks like minimum guard band is less than 1 MHz and a 100 MHz channel is only 273 30 KHz resource blocks, which is a bit over 80 MHz total, so if they really wanted to pull another 5% or so capacity out they could.
    • Saw that for a while. Now back to n25 + n71 + n41-100Mhz + n41-90Mhz.
