[FLORIDA] 4g metro speeds ;)

Hmmmm. Innaresin. First time for this for me.

Speeds have been the usual 2-4 consistent but we've had several flops to EV and since late last night uploads so slow they struggle to complete a Speedtest with.

:confused:

The fastest ive ever got at my house..even it being this late...of courseeeeee it was only that time and then went back to 2-4mb speeds...sigh
 
I decided to do a few more speedtests using speedtest.net and the other app and im consistently getting 6.50-7.50mb down..i know its late but its never been this high at this time...ill try again tom. When i get home from work since it should be more congested..

I'm getting my typical work speeds here on Miramar Pkway and i75, 3rd floor of the building:

12.41mb down and 3.5 up

My down, and up speeds are looking similar to your's. I hope they are just merging the networks, and not dropping Brevard county, or slowing us down.:( I remember when I first started getting 3G out here lol it was great. :)
 
Suggestion if you're seeing Real weirdness.

If you're on Faceplant, do a backchannel message to the Mothership with your last name and last 4 of your number. Use the speedtest page that shows the last 10-12 tests not just one test. It's easy to load the pic of the multi test page to Faceplant. I like to do 2-3 tests at once and get most of a full day on one page. That way you get tests in different traffic times.

Just tell em it's a FYI.

My speeds are higher here now but still has BIG swings. (1.5-6.5)

A Major issue is the UL speeds which being < .20 Mps the speed test doesn't even want to finish. :rolleyes:

You have the tech and it's pretty easy to shoot Das Mothership some useful data.

I got a 0.00 upload speed a little while ago lol:rolleyes:
 
so is technically when it's official will our metro 4GLTE phones start sharing the same frequency with tmob 4gLTE towers?

I am seriously mumlin' over the phone signal god beads.

They appear to be tweaking things around here after I posted the 24 hr speed test to the Mothership on (backchannel) Faceplant yesterday.

I'm getting much more solid and consistent 4-5's with 1 or over ULs.

A noticeably improvement.

Doin' the bead mumlin' that it HOLDS that way. :rolleyes:

The Above is yesterday.

The Below is a couple days ago when I sent this to the Mothership and told them the speeds were all over the place and UL were almost non-existent.

2013-07-19-14-57-48.jpg


As you can see, the speeds have stabilized some and the UL are coming back. (Off to Faceplant to let the Mothership see.)

So far, today is similar too. YEAH! :p

Wow. I am having the same exact problems all over my normal areas. Funny thing is as soon as I clicked to quote this it said it couldn't reach the server .... dropped data to nothing. It takes a few seconds to come back on but it happens a few times a day. Plus upload speeds are horrible. If anyone talks to Metro please let us know what they have to say
 
Yall that are having these issues should do a full days worth of Speedtests anjd shoot that one whole day screen to the Mothership via Faceplant.

YOU with the problems are the BEST one's to show them to Metro.

(Last night I rocked in with a 7.13 DL, a tie for the second highest speed I've ever personally seen.)

Same thing happened to me and after it was all over my speeds went up.. Although our cases may not be the same. I would suggest you take Ocals suggestion :b
