  1. You will never see an unlimited hotspot at full speed on LTE. It would destroy a network. In my home, I have a 200Mbps internet that I share with no one. It's great and very useful.

     

    But with Sprint B41 LTE, you are sharing one 80Mbps connection with everyone in your sector. I don't think people get that. Two or three people running full HD streaming on that 80Mbps to a device on hotspots and all of a sudden that carrier is maxed out and everyone else has a reduced experience.

     

    On a 5MHz carrier, everyone in that sector is sharing ONE 37.5Mbps connection. LTE networks are shared ecosystems that cannot support many people using them as full speed ISP replacements where people are full definition streaming. That's not going to happen with the way technology is now and the way networks are deployed now.

     

    LTE cannot be used for a home ISP without significant handicaps. Throughput speed or data limits. Otherwise millions would switch their ISPs to wireless and the networks would crumble overnight.

     

    Whether people like it or not, you're sharing 37.5Mbps, 80Mbps or possibly up to 160Mbps in some situations with dozens or hundreds of other customers. And in a stadium it can be thousands. That's what a wireless network does. We try to educate out that ignorance.

  2. Just noticed I'm on B25 CA for the first time ever at home. Been having a lot of tower congestion for the past 2-3 months being connected to a GMO site at peak hours. Crews must've came out sometime today, after I made some calls being stuck on 1x a few times this week, being on B25 that became along poor 3G on hand overs. Did my first speed test and got 14.55 Mbps up, and 4.47 Mbps down. Average speeds was always 5 to 6 Mbps up before B25 CA.

    Is it CA or a second carrier ? And way yu can send a screen shot?

  3. The PLMN and the GCI will be different. That looks like a Sprint site. If an iPhone 6 is only getting 17, it would make sense that a CA device has trouble pushing 40. CA double the available bandwidth, but if that is limited to start with, the total available will be less.

    Sounds like there is not enough back haul here
