  1. Don't you mean space ship, time machine and cat jungle gym?
  2. Anyone else experiencing tower issues? I'm down to only 1x800 and nothing else as of about 1:50 am.
  3. I'd have to look into and check on the static public IP address. I'm not entirely sure, but I would guess yes it does because it remembers your devices so you do not have to sign-in every time. And yes, if you would need to extend your signal, I have extended my signal before with one. But I don't encourage it, since I'm sure Karma put the "3 device policy" in place for a reason. That is if you plan to use it in a way to get more than 3 devices connected.
  4. Well, they do the "$50 off sale" a lot. Like a lot, a lot. So don't feel bad if you can't do it right now! I need to do a better job of looking to see when thy do sales and post it here... I've even missed out on some of their sales when it's BOGO for their data.
  5. It is typically $149. So with the current sale and my referral code I can give you, it will bring it down to $89!
  6. I am in the process of revising the original post... adding some more information to it and cleaning it up a bit. Also wanted to make a mention the Karma is running a special until midnight Tuesday 12/1. You can get $50 off and free shipping!
  7. Thanks, now that you say it, I understood it! I think it's bed time... haha
  8. Up here in the North Wisconsin market, I usually drop B26 at around -115 to -118 with my G3. Edit: No, that's roughly about what I'm at when I drop back to EVDO (give or take 5 either way)
  9. Sounds good, no rush.
  10. Well since you went through the effort of finding the information, I'll include it in the OP. Do you have the gain for B26? And any other key findings that you found interesting that you'd like me to include?
  11. Actually probably both. The one tower I frequently use it on is a B25/B26 only and am usually parked on B25. The other is a full NV build tower with a second B41 carrier, and am 99% of the time on B41. The other rare 1% is on B26.
  12. Really?? I'm honestly quite surprised. It takes a lot for mine to even show only 2 circles, let alone drop to 3G. Is there another device we can compare the numbers with to see how it compares?
  13. Actually now that you say that, you're right. I don't have to log in with my laptop or tablet ever, just after I changed the SSID name for the Wi-Fi name on it.
  14. And also the Tab 3/4 should have a better antenna/frequency because of the fact it is data only. If you put a tablet and phone side by side, typically the tablet will hold onto LTE longer. Keep in mind too, if they just deployed the LTE there, it might not be optimized properly either. Tbh, there are many, many factors of why LTE drops.
  15. Part of the reason why you drop to 3G is that your devices are single band. You will not be able to connect to B26 (lower band spectrum LTE for indoor coverage) and B41 (higher band, faster LTE). B25 (the band of LTE that single band devices receive) can only reach so far. If you were to upgrade to a Tri-Band device, you'd have a better experience on the network. That is of course when B26 and B41 get to your area. I know the Tab 3 and iPhone 5 will only pick up B25. I'm not familiar enough with the Hydro Icon to know if it is or not.
  16. Where you able to find anything through the FCC for the antenna?
  17. I'm almost positive you'll have to sign-in/log-in every time. But maybe I'm wrong, I don't really pay attention if I have to sign on everytime or not.
  18. Great review! I'm very happy to hear that the advertised speed is actually what you're getting. Where you getting a full, 3 bar signal? Looking forward to the rest of the test!
  19. In a couple weeks I'd love to hear your review of it! Glad you are liking it so far
  20. 12 Days (Ellen's 12 Days of Christmas)
  21. Oh I know about the ping. They (T-Mobile Fan Boys) will try to find any possible way to say T-Mobile is better when Sprint clearly beats them. This is true for that picture, that's why I made that joke.
  22. But the Magentians will all be like... "But T-Mobile had a faster Ping!" Seriously though, I love this picture
  23. So anyone catch the AMA's and see how over plastered it was with T-Mobile signage and pink everything? As much as I despise them, they're doing a hell of a job in the marketing department because they're hitting their target market dead on. Oh, and what perfect time to advertise their Binge On and Music Freedom - I mean network killer - services... I'm just happy Marcelo hasn't followed suit with either of those. Our wonderful speed tests that we've all had would be extremely crippled.
