badbeats

For me the most important thing is the phone working well.. as a phone. It really has been bad. I do have a 4g device, and the 4g signal is sometimes very spotty. Also its just slow compared to the other carriers. Just did a test right now and got 1.6 Mbps for dl and .8 for up. The numbers are fairly normal for me. Obviously wimax cant compete with other LTE carriers, until Sprint upgrades to LTE.

The calls have been dropping since April, so Its been awhile. I have hard time believing sprint since they first said the network would be fixed in may, then june, then july, and now august. I also have 2 friends who got the EVO 2 years ago in the kenosha area since 4g was coming soon. 2 years later no 4g. I am glad to hear its not dropping in Elgin. Here is Naperville its been awful. One of my business partners lives in Bloomingdale and has been having the same issues. Some other friends have the same problems in McHenry, Carol stream, Hinsdale, and Park Ridge. I guess it varies from town to town. Its been an ok 2 years but I think its time for a change. I hope it does get better for you guys.

I have a little over a week until my sprint contract runs out. I would like 4G LTE with great speeds. However for me a stable network where calls do not drop 2-3 per call is the most important. I was hoping by now this problem would be solved, but it does not appear to be. Are you guys thinking that they will not roll out the new network until November? If so I guess that makes my decision a lot easier. Thanks again and great job on the site.

Any updates on the chicagoland area?
