Robert: Why does 3G get better signal penetration than LTE? Why can I stand in one place and get 4 or 5 bars of 3G but only 1 or 2 of LTE?? If its the same frequency an location why is it weaker? I have the same problem with TMO and Sprint.

Robert what is the name of that app you are using for testing?

Robert, do you have the details of this sites? Where are they located?

Super good LTE signal this morning inside Caribbean Cinemas in Plaza Las Americas while watching Iron Man 3 this morning. Also my AT&T phone was unusable data.

Those two site in Old San Juan are one of the three or four in PR that they have not been able to work on due to permits and it being on a historical area and some more blah blah blah.

It's difficult to find a way to the describe it here in this market but I think the word that comes to mind is inconsistency. It's great in some places not only metro areas like others have said. But I believe when they finish shutting down their 2g here and concentrate on HSPA+ DC and LTE it will be great. Their monthly unlimited plans are amazing and include all you could want. Sprint and T-Mobile will make a comeback at the end of 2013 and beginning of 2014. The reason I say inconsistent is because I can stand just in front of their main office in Rio Piedras and speed test (that for some reason never reflect real speed) and get 1mb, I move down to the highway and I can get 10mb. In most areas they provide a consistent 3 to 5 mb also voice quality is much better than AT&T based on clarity.

That type of situation you describe is because of AT&T using lower 700mhz LTE AND 850mhz voice.

I noticed that two but 3G speeds on that area are over 1.5 Mbps not a lot but consistent and better than before.

Here you go AT&T LTE http://www.speedtest.net/iphone/496200962.png http://www.speedtest.net/iphone/520745074.png

I currently carry AT&T, T-Mobile & Sprint, and maybe deep deep in some areas of the center of the island AT&T is better but around the big metro areas it's LTE is almost unusable I have seen speeds as low as .10 on LTE their network congestion is getting worse by the day It reminds me of back in the days of the iPhone 3GS and its congested network.

Most of Ceiba, Luquillo, Rio Grande & Canovanas has no LTE

nice!.........not common for AT&T but still

I think that's wishful thinking at this point, last time somebody informed me LTE was at 65% 2 weeks ago.

I ask because a girlfriend that lives in Rio grande just told me she has been roaming since yesterday and she usually gets 3bars inside her house. But since yesterday she has been on roaming if she turns off roaming the phone says no service.
