ok gotcha. and yes I know that now constantly comparing my speeds to my brother.
-
so if its limited to 37.5 why the max i get is 2mbps... but normally like 500-700kbps low pings but the same as 3g except 3g had super high pings of 600ms?
-
so can anyone explain why my lte speeds on the note 3 obviously run b25... have low ping like 50ms. but speeds are 700kbps... but on my bro note 4 I'm guessing he's on b41 are 30mpbs... we have to be connected to same tower so the backhaul has to be the same and so shouldn't the max speed available on b25 actually be achievable?

lolol wow everyone arguing about Samsung's attempt at the GLOBAL Phone Takeover that Apple started and there following suit. SMH at Samsung. The versatile phones always pushing forward with releasing as much new technology as possible in a phone was amazing. Now they are sitting back and taking the coward way out on releasing new phones. With minor updates that no one really cares for. The metal frame is so that you have to buy new phones ones its mangled like iPhones. I repair phones so I know how it is. No one can tell me otherwise. GS6 release is a sad day for Samsung Fans and Supporters. I've had s2, s3, s4, and now Note 3. I am saddened but this release I was gonna downsize but just going to upgrade to the Note 4 hopefully the Note 5 they won't make the mistake of making it metal.
-
well that would make sense being that I live about 5 mini blocks from one tower and about 4 regular blocks from the other... and I have half the reception on my phone for voice and prob -102 on the lte signal. so its either microwave at the moment or they turned up the juice on a further one while they make the necessary upgrades to the others
-
well thats what you say... but I will go check this fiber wire that was ran to pole but not to the building. or at least that what it appearsed to be I meant to look earlier to see if that cable actually ran up to the building but my ADD got the best of me and I turned sooner then I should have. Hopefully tomorrow I will remember to pass and check. You may be right but you just might not? ahh whatever point is this is the first time they said they are gonna do something and are actually doing it. MARCH was the better of the two updates they promised. So lets see...
-
so remember how I told you LTE is clicking in my house now... its slow but its clicking... well one of the legacy towers they just updated on an old Movie Theater that hasnt been open in over 8 years... they been remodeling for a conversion... and I guess they finally got the owner permission to get up top because they it shows the last two days that it been completed even tho lte been slow but live for the last 2 weeks. This is big progress for Sprint considering the last time this area ever seen an update was more then 10 years ago. SMH happy excited but not so yet lol still running T1 lines Im sure.
-
IM still dumbfound at the fact that this LTE came went away for a few hours and came back to stay I'm guessing even though my wifi is retarded its good to know I can somewhat rely on it when Im outside and don't have to drive into an LTE area just to use my phone. and PCS carrier what does that mean?
-
I def want to upgrade soon now that I see they are pushing forward after 3 years of false promises but I don't do upgrades unless they were giving me note 4 for free. And why no talk and surf? I get that with my phone now and with galaxy s3 wasnt that triband?
-
oh ok thanks i thought i got robbed lol
-
this is the daytime and nighttime speedtest.. don't know what the band was because the app doesn't say? Im upset I paid for this app so I can see all the tech but it don't display
-
yesterday I walked in to get something and go and I was standing in the bathroom... and looked down at phone and noticed 4g let lol was super excited I think all yesterday I had in on note 3... did the 1 in afternoon speed test and 1 in the am this am... 1/14 speed test.. NO LTE today makes no sense. but its cool knowing I got it in the house so that means LTE real soon in this area. But Im curious I downloaded the app and paid for it but it doesn't say the band that the internet is connected on... ? that screenshot was wrong... I will post correct one in next post
-
yes lolol my panties were wet but yea he won't do such a thing. I'm going to start looking for a Note 4 or just might renew contract for first time in almost 12 years of being married to Sprint to get S6 if its screen is close in size to the Note 3
-
Sooo long story short and not to get personal but I was on my roof yesterday and caught a sliver of LTE on my NOTE 3 for obvious reasons I was in clear way of an LTE tower... forgot the PING but had about 2 mbps on download didnt really care to see up. I knew I only had the signal because I was on roof so it was cool but didn't really excite me. Myrtle n Decatur St was voice update and evergreen and cooper was lte update... so tonight I go home to grab some stuff and my bro tells me to look at his phone... ie NOTE 4... and low and behold he has LTE so I Speedtest it and... he gets about 6down 9up... hmmm let's see what happens the next few days... either I upgrade to Note 4 or wait for s6 or I just wait to see if they do one of two updates in between...
-
lolol damn what do you pay for that?
