Re: Only 20% coverage to start with Workaround: use e-mail 
Seriously though, my guess is that Sprint's LTE coverage will match their map in San Antonio in a week or two.
As for latency, check which speed test server you're using. I'd try testing to SoftLayer in Dallas rather than the default, since not a lot of networks in central TX are directly connected to SprintLink. |

1 edit | Yes the problem with email is OTHER people dont use email on their phones but MMS/texts rather than attaching photos to email. (at least in my experience)
I tried some various alternate servers... the Softlayer Dallas was the same. But, Houston/Comcast reported 50ms/58ms/49ms but curiously with lower throughput (limited by the server I assume)--> all these tests were with 3/4 of 6 "4g bars" signal quality; -100dBm 39-41 asu.
 ok, I can confirm firsthand seeing lower latency in tests in SA (50ms!) than the wimax.
The additional tests pushed the speedtest.net mobile data since saturday to 1.3GB... |

| Heh, lots and lots of mobile data usage 
Then again, I'll be surfing up a storm come Wednesday, when I touch down in Fort Worth. I'll be away from WiFi (unless it's of my own making) until Sunday, so my phone, iPad and T-Mobile Rocket 3.0 will be getting a workout. |
