  1. i will probally get the note 3 on the one up program, i just hope it comes out before sprint stops the $0 down payments. By the time I have all three bands up and running where im at it will be time for an upgrade again. 

  2. It's taking a lot of restraint to not make a joke about this.

     

    That being said, I don't hate my ISP, I just wish they had some competition. They have the coax monopoly so unless you want DSL, it's just take what you're given and hope it doesn't hurt too much.

    I get 95 mb/s down

  3. I hear AJ walking up....

     

    Actually there is a MCS index for 600 megabits on N with 4 spatial streams (MIMO).

     

    Since our phones only have one wifi antenna you are limited to 1 spatial stream and since many are limited to only 20mhz channels it becomes less. Depending on the guard interval the router has at 1 spatial stream at 20mhz you are limited to 65 or 72 megabits based on the GI. And generally rule of thumb I've found is to cut this in half for real data rate. So basically this is why the Note2 and many other phones at 802.11n 2.4ghz you are limited to about 35 megabits.

     

    I see this with my home wifi when doing speedtests on 2.4ghz. When I switch to 5ghz where I have a 40mhz channel and my device can use this 40mhz on the 5ghz side, I can hit a speedtest around 45 mbit down which is probably due to my bottleneck at the cable modem then.

     

    Also be aware that some laptops only have on spatial stream so they will also cap out at 65/72. Then another laptop might be handshaking at 200+ megabits right next to it. I see this all the time with the various devices on my router as the device list on my router shows the current handshake rate for up/down on each device and the signal strength/quality of each device.

    I get 100 mb/s on my PC. With my s3 on the same network I get 45mb/s

  4. I work in a grocery store. Were not suppose to have them on us. I do cause on several occasions a customer wanted to know how to cook something. I pull out my phone and look it up. When I do that they realize that they can Google it to. Lol.

  5. found this list, though it is based off the 2000 census

  6. The key for successful 2.5 TD-LTE deployment and really make use of the spectrum and an impact on the overall Sprint network is to expand the TD-LTE footprint to at least the top 100 markets in the metro areas which means beyond the current Wimax markets. This is my hope for Son and Sprint to spend the necessary capex to accomplish this.

    is there a list of the top 100 markets anywhere
