4G Faster now since 1x

[nativi]

Well when i called Verizon today they said they updated the 4G and that it should be faster. Looks that way.

the 6.5Mbps was during a call

I know fast

Maybe its cause some 4g areas are still inactive. So maybe not everyone is clogging the network? but those are really good speeds!!!!

I have no proof, but my 3G seems so much faster now!

4G in Las Vegas seems a little faster as well. But that could because not everyone is back online with 4G. I had to reboot my phone to get 4G back after being on WiFi.

Mine isn't any faster.

Mines not, it's on the lo end of what I normally get before yesterday. Just saying.

My ping time are great now, down to 75 from 120. My speeds, however, are hardly beating coworkers ATT. I'm getting 5 Mb down and .5 up.

Columbus, OH isn't feeling real LTE love...:'(

Faster Speed ?

Ping time is faster but a little slower on the data transfer times since 4g came back as compared to 2 days ago.

Interesting but it could be they did an update an is not live everywhere else just yet. Could be.

I am getting 6MB down and .8MB up...this is no where near the best I have gotten...Anyone know what we should actually expect from LTE...I had 20MB up/down when I first got my TB...just saying...

Verizon has always stated that LTE users should expect anywhere from 5-12 down and 2-5 up

compared to my most recent speedtest results BEFORE lte went down:
18.34, 3.89
16.05,3.23

now my results are, in comparison, pretty bad
8.28, 1.35
13.89, 0.47

not saying these speeds aren't awesome by themselves---but compared to previous stats, they're blah.
maybe these new ones are what i should be expecting once the network gets saturated...still, infinitely better experience than my WiMax usage just 2 months ago.

Don't feel too bad... for me in Denver LTE has been hovering around 4-8 down and 2-4 up for a long time now (depending on where you are around town). When it first hit town I could get around 15-20 down and 5-6 up almost everywhere around town. I do believe there is some VZW tweaking (throttling) going on as they fine tune this motha. I mean, really, we can't have everyone on VZW pulling down 31Mbps, now can we!

Edit: I don't know about faster, but definitely better here around Denver. There is a Starbucks that I often visit about 3 miles from my house. Denver is very hilly so it it common to drive in and out of coverage in a short distance, depending on the hills. Anyway, at this Starbucks there are VZW antennas placed directly on top of a building next door. I always get a maximum (pegged) 3G signal here. Including right up until two days ago when 4G/3G went down. Well, today, VZW data is back up to the fullest, and... (symbol crash!) they now have stood-up 4G on top of the building across the street. Cool. I've said it before but I guess I'll say it again... this 4G rollout is speeding along. Every day it seems there is 4G in a new place. It won't be long before it's everywhere (almost). Sure makes me glad I didn't settle for a 3G phone.

Looks to be a little quicker with better DL of flash and images.

Yeah, wtf? Mine used to be over 10 now below 2, what gives Verizon?

My speeds are a lot slower now. Today I have been getting around 2-3 down and 1 up. I was constantly getting 15-25 down before the outage. If the speeds do not improve I am going to complain until they let me out of my contract as I am only getting 3g speeds on LTE atm.
