  1. Sprint equipment usually doesn't have as much backhaul provisioned as the Clearwire equipment. In addition the speed decrease might also be because of how the Sprint equipment also shares the backhaul with B25 and B26, while the Clear equipment only shares the backhaul with the relatively unused WiMax.

    Once they enable the 2nd B41 carrier they'll definitely increase the backhaul to get you the 70Mbps speeds you're looking for.

    I'm not sure which kind of Band 41 there is in my area, but in the Westland Mall, Band 41 has impressive penetration, not sure about the other mall in my area, but I like it. I hope they keep up the good work, also hope Band 26 deployment will be as fast as it was with Band 41. Band 41 deployment was/is impressive.

  2. Sprint was part of the three way tie for text performance, so you have to give them credit for that.

     

    However, things will improve as more Band 41 shows up.

    Well, things haven't really improved in my city. Just about every tower has B41, and not much of improvement, at least at mine and my dads place, my moms house data is good. I'll consider it good when I can stream Spotify without hiccups. Sprint was excellent in Florida and San Juan.

  3. I'm not sure how you guys deal with Sprint up there. Every time I've been to Michigan anywhere near Detroit, Canton, Oak Park, Romulus, etc... LTE doesn't work worth a damn. I have to switch to 3G to get working service. Ann Arbor is nice though, Cleveland is still a lot better in terms of LTE speed and usability. For all I know it might be an issue with my phone being provisioned in another market. Can I get any conformation?

    PRL update always helps. It's what I had to do in Florida to get LTE reliability. But yes, LTE really isn't that reliable in the Detroit market, especially Detroit. At my house I'm on 3G most of the time. It was excellent in Florida.
