Similar improvement here in Raleigh. I get 2.0-2.5 with 1 bar, 3.5-4 with 2, and up to 6 with 3 bars (which is rare where I travel between my home and office) which is 1-1.5 higher across the board than what i got over launch weekend. But we've had 4G here since before the overdrive came out it seems like, so it's a more mature network.

I've also noticed that I now get 2 bars where I got only 1 on launch? Anyone else seen signal levels increase like their turning up the towers?

Heres to hoping coverage is great on campus in the fall.

How are you testing performance? See first post here as it might be better than you think...

yes the speedtest app is horrible, I uninstalled it. I was tethering via USB and doing the speakeasy test for the tests at my home and office (1 and 2 bars) and was doing the speakeasy test via the stock browser for the 3 bar test (was downtown) so the 3 bar test may have actually been faster if i was tethered.

I have ALWAYS been faster tethered, but I have no idea why.

Nice. From Fayetteville here but live in Wilmington. Can't wait to get 4G here.

I'll have to double check my signal in kernersville.
When I had clear, it was spotty coverage using their USB modems and I only get 1 maybe 2 bars of signal at the house with the phone. Even with the "fair" or "poor" signal I still get 3+ download and the seemingly capped 1 upload.
