I finally received LTE at home! I received the text that they're working on the network in my area on October 18th, 2013. I'm glad I finally have LTE.....I can now do a lot more without waiting forever (using 3G was way too slow)!
By the way, when www.network.sprint.com updated my tower for "data upgrade" on January 20, it took 7 days for the tower to actually turn LTE on. I kept trying daily (power cycled my phone, updated my Profile and PRL) and at 12:05PM the LTE kicked into my iPhone 5 and Mifi 500. It may take a week for the tower to actually enable the LTE so give it time even though Sprint said they put LTE in your tower.
