Great! Thanks. Without even hitting play I have that song stuck in my head!

I really doubt it has a major strain on our 3g network. I just wanted to show how the network here is and if it was a possibility the two were related. C'mon NV!

Is it back up? Because I did a speed test at that time (8:30) and it was blazing on 3g. Now (12:00) not so much I attributed it to network load. Wonder if the Sprint Direct Connect has any affect on 3g speed? Anybody know? Anyway same location (at my desk at work) here are the results:

I know "holy revival quote!" But anyway, I've noticed the same here all over Raleigh/Cary/Durham/CH. It finally got so bad I had to switch to a verizon or cricket prl (currently verizon) to get any decent speeds. I keep telling myself the network is so slow because they're working on the towers and will wow us with early lte. And I'm a pessimist!

That's what I get here (when I switch prls to cricket) and why I love it! Wow.... is sprint's 3g network in RDU THAT messed up?

Yeah I actually have a verizon 4g hotspot I had for a month (borrowed it from a friend in DC so I could do work why my gf drove us back to Cary). All-in-all verizon has a great network here. Just hate the data caps.

Welp! I stand corrected. However... netmon says its owned by Sprint but no carrier. The phone also thinks its connected to Sprint. Could be wrong. It still shows as roaming data on my bill. Either way I think they might have a better agreement with cricket on roaming than, say, verizon. Regardless. I really CANNOT use sprint's network here. Impossible. I upgraded my rom to jellybean at work and didnt switch back to the cricket prl and i started streaming 1 song when I left work. Realized it was on sprint. Let it keep going, switched to CD for myself. When I was 2 mins from home (15min commute) google voice finally gave up on the 1 song and said "Cannot play file" It di make it 80% through it though! Anyway if they drop me, I think I know who I'm going to then

Yeah I can vouch for the Raleigh / Durham market being complete shit. hardly get of 30 kilobits per second. Changed my prl to cricket, who buys their 3g from sprint and it at least lets me stream google music. Could the drop me for roaming? I'm not sure how they can claim I'm really roaming. They're getting paid twice for the same bandwidth (once by me once by cricket). But I'm sure they actually CAN drop me....Hopefully they won't and they'll get LTE up soon!

Ooooh Where are robert's maps I haven't had a chance to look through them yet.

Hope so! My girlfriend's parents are in the Columbia market. You can check if the tower is Sprint by looking at opensignalmaps.com perhaps?
