The_Chemist Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 The deal with that is that more people with more smartphones are using more data for more hours, for more things. Hopefully the addition of 800 LTE will take some of the load off of the 1900 LTE and then in the future, the 2.5 LTE should really take more of the load off the 1900 LTE. That makes sense. I can't believe how rapidly the speeds diminished though.... 800 LTE is up and running here now, but at this point band 25 performance has not improved again yet. At this point I don't check speeds any longer. As long as I have LTE that's ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S4GRU Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Maybe Shentel has not added a second Band 25 LTE carrier in the Harrisburg area? Robert via Samsung Note 8.0 using Tapatalk Pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can then tell when you're on a PCS LTE carrier other than PCS G Block. Robert via Samsung Note 8.0 using Tapatalk Pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert via Samsung Note 8.0 using Tapatalk Pro I do have Signal Check Pro, but I'm not exactly sure what data I'm looking for to differentiate one carrier from another.

The_Chemist Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Ok, I just looked at the LTE Engineering screen. I see it shows upload and download frequencies... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
