  1. I feel like a horrible person, last month I used 2700 minutes, 6500 texts, and 19gb of data, I have 4G out at the office now. I want to cry in a corner.
  2. yeaah, 2 of the 4 Verizon towers within a square mile of my house are wooden. little 45-50 footers.
  3. AT&T spacing is as tight as Sprint in Tulsa. Nobody has spacing like Verizon in Tulsa, however they use these little 50 foot poles, some are wooden.
  4. I have been pricing out 40GIG E connections and a few million $ in fiber layout charges lately so forgive my bias I want to see spectrum used as efficiently as possible across the board. I want to see more small state/regional providers, but only if they are willing to invest for the future. industry innovation.
  5. I have ideas to make it happen..
  6. I had the most random after thought to this. Sprint's commitment to safe living "Trade in applicable firearm weapon and receive a free Galaxy S3 smartphone, with 2 year activation". In all serious, slow data, dropped calls, i can see the rampage. When these folks have access to unlimited Lte they will have to put the guns down .
  7. I was riding in a car, and every single cell tower i passed was being worked on, crews were on every single one, then i woke up Happy Thursday Edit, it's Wednesday.
  8. Until we see documents pass through the FCC it's pretty much just speculation. The original timeline for SMR Lte phones was Q4.
  9. How interesting that this is first noticed in Master AJ-WWAN's home market
  10. I have tested AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, &T-Mobile's Lte networks and have compiled the following. Keep in mind these tests are not entirely scientific and only provide a basic overview of actual network performance at best. Tests were performed for 5 minute Intervals at morning, lunch, 5 o clock rush, &sundown. I covered 7 miles in my testing sessions and avoided testing outsides the intended coverage area of the site. I believe each carrier had at least 3 Lte sites a piece in my test strip. #1 AT&T's 10x10 is far less loaded in my area than that of VZW. An average signal strength of -79 dBm, 41 Mbps downlink 17 Mbps uplink, average latency 73 ms. Indoor performance was phenomenal, signal strength remains consistent throughout. For now AT&T takes the cake. #2 Sprint operates a 5x5 mhz network and is not complete of course, however I did my testing in an area with several consecutive live LTe sites. An average signal strength of -84 dBm, 14mbps downlink 7mbps uplink, average latency 81ms. Indoor performance varies greatly depending on the exterior material of the building. Only once however did I revert to 3G. #3 T-Mobile is far from complete yet I am able to use any LTe they have available. I had an average signal of -93 dBm, 23mbps down 9mbps up with an impressive 60 ms average latency. Most impressive with outdoor usage ping times were as low as 37ms however indoors T-Mobile has the most squeamish LTe experience out of any of the national providers. #4 Verizon wireless, the touted LTe king lacks in every department except for coverage;of which is plentiful compared to any other current network. Vzw average signal was -87 dBm, 11mbps down 3 Mbps up with an average latency of 98 ms. Indoor outdoor coverage is virtually ubiquitous from my experiences. I look forward to duplicating this test in 6 months. Results will be different in every market. Also since this is posted the general section I'll clarify on my ranking system. The scale is based simply on performance, I am in no way suggesting AT&T is the #1 choice for your personal wireless provider. Testing was performed in Bixby OK. -Will
  11. Glad you were able to get the phone working.
  12. Awesome, that's great confirmation.
  13. Yes its a feat of miracles to get all that permitting. However to the end user there is nothing substantial until backhaul is in place.
