Nearly half of Verizon's data traffic goes through its LTE pipeline |
So how is the LTE network hold up? Haberman says that the reliability of the network, or its ability to provide users with a signal, has reached the same level that Verizon's 3G Ev-Do network has. He added that this year, Verizon will turn LTE on in areas covered with its AWS spectrum, where extra capacity is required. Next year it will combine data transmissions over AWS and 700MHz spectrum to improve data speeds. The carrier also plans to refarm the 850MHz spectrum where it currently uses CDMA, to LTE. Since Verizon has decided to support 2G and 3G services through 2021, there is no date scheduled for the refarming.

It's blazing fast so it's easier to actually do things. Coming from AT&T to Verizon I love their LTE but those small amounts of time when I do have 3G, it's so slow.

All 3G compared to Verizon's 4G LTE is very slow, not just Verizon's. I really love & I am VERY spoiled by Verizon Wireless. My life has changed in the way I use mobile thanks to Verizon Wireless' insane 4G LTE.

Yup-per on that account. It used to be that I would not bother downloading e-mail attachments because it was just too painful waiting for the download to complete. Now, I immediately click on the attachment. VZW's LTE really has changed the way I use mobile.

I was like that also. Getting those email attachments was like watching the grass grow. Endlessly painful. Remember dealing with the horrible constant buffering of videos.
Ohh those were the GLORY days. lol
Now I don't even think about it. I can do anything on demand. It's truly a pleasure.

I average 30 down on Comcast with peaks of 35 or so. I guess you just have bad service with them.

Who in their right mind would want a slow network? By the end of 2013, VZW has promised their entire network will be LTE. Meanwhile AT&T has a crap network (according to people at T-Mo, that is).
