Ok enough naked guy talk, on to the strip club I go

orly? but there is enough spectrum for wimax home internet? and wimax is only using a small portion of the available spectrum?

Clearwire has plenty of spectrum, however they are no longer building out Wimax and Clear LTE at least for the time being will be focused on Sprint's high traffic areas, I could be proven wrong but given Clearwire's financial difficulties and limitations on their spectrum propagation I would not be expecting any significant rural deployments.

EVDO usually runs 200-300k here at its best 600-800. Despite what they are advertising you will not be able to stream netflix.

Cheaper than evdo you posted, If you go over data limits are slowed to 150k. The 4g offers are likely on clearwire network and is not and will not be coming to this area. 4G LTE when available will not be supporting home internet access, just not enough spectrum

Sorry I have not been on here updating this, in the middle of buying a house and now have some major family issues, I will try to get caught back up.

I'm in Kansas City near the cross section of K-10 and K-7 and have been getting LTE for about a week and a half. Do the GPS coordinates on this screen shot help identify the tower?

Got an lte connection about a mile from my house a couple hours ago. This was at the corner of Killian Hill rd and Hwy 78 in Snellville GA right outside Atlanta.

Could you take a screen shot of netmoniter while connected. it may help identify the tower connected to

Now that you mention "half capacity", it's one thing I've been wondering lately. How many people connected to a tower would be full capacity? I'm sure it depends on the number of carriers. But how many people per carrier?

C-plane capacity:

• LTE - At least 200 users per cell should be supported in the active state for spectrum allocations up to 5 MHz.
  
• LTE Advanced - At least 300 active users without DRX in a 5 MHz bandwidth.

And with 3 sectors per tower thats 900 users

I'm hoping that it was related to the storm because I was so disappointed in the service. I can't remember the last time that I had a device fail me so consistently like that.

 

I'm still getting a dedicated navigation unit. I don't want to worry about data connection when I need directions.

Pretty sure that JB/maps will not need a data connection for navigation on the next version for the exact reason you cite.

And I was driving thru DC yesterday and had the same problem with data, it varied as I drove thru, likely a lot of towers were without power. Backup's are not on all towers and some if not many are supplied by batteries that may only last about 8 hours. This is true of all carriers and they all are suffering the same problem. No power=No service.

I'm pulling Sprint 3g from 4.8 mile's and on good day's can get 1.3mb down and 500kbps up.

Not intending to say its not possible but should not be expected your surroundings play a huge role in signal quality and the further out you get the more that is in the way.

Will cell size be the same as there 1900 evdo, cause I know Verizon's LTE cell size Suck's compared to their evdo and it's spose to be the best, 700mhz. It;s useless out past 2mile's.

In urban areas the frequency is not as relevant as the sites are usually already close together. There the advantage with lower frequency is building penetration, The site radius then is controlled by tilting the antenna. Irregardless past 2 miles you should not expect great coverage, especially in areas with lots of clutter such as trees, building, hills, ect.

Don't forget the 800Mhz that will be used starting next year for LTE should provide better coverage for the fringe areas if you are able to get a decent signal outside at this point you may end up wasting your money. If you can't get decent signal even outside than a booster may not be for you anyway an amplifier can only increase the signal it receives and adds noise in the process so signal quality on the back end will be less than that received even if the power is higher.
