There is talk at Telia about upgrading their network to LTE starting next year but at this point, it's only talk. Telia's network is the first iteration of what is now thought of as LTE but has slower speeds than present-day LTE which is what they are planning to update to. 3 is already offering 4G speeds up to 32Mbits/s which, they claim, is equivalent to LTE but we know where that argument takes us, lol.
In a nutshell, 3 claims a 4G network with a top speed potential at 64Mbits/s while Telia, Telenor and Tele2, presently, have a top potential speed of 80Mbits/s. Nobody ever comes even remotely close to those speeds (as I'm sure you already know).
I'm out near 134th & May. It's a relatively slow spot. When I'm in your area, or down in Norman at work, I see speeds closer to what you are getting.
I think its just SFL. I live in West Palm but work in Broward. The highest I've hit is 19.4 but thats nowhere the average Ive been getting.
Service has always been horrible in Bellevue. Especially downtown near bsquare. Not surprised.
Still waiting for LTE to be activated on Swisscom's network here in Switzerland, but in the meantime, the 3G HSPA+ network is pretty respectable, too. In good areas, I get 20 Mbit/s down, 2 Mbit/s up.
Of course, at peak times in congested areas it goes down to about 2 Mbit/s down and 0.5 Mbit/s up...
Can't wait until december when they will activate the LTE network
