Slow internet in Miami

Anyone been getting pretty slow network speed tests in Miami Florida?
4g can't seem to go past 350kb/s and 3g is around .4 mbit according to speedtest....
I've got the latest radios flashed ...

7.75 Mbps / 1.00 Mbps in Pinecrest, FL

Same problem here at least the tower downtown giving only 2 mbps down and 1 up
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

2.48 down, .85 up. Indoors in Miami, Coral Way and 22nd Ave. On occasions I do get 7dwn and 1up. What's up with that?
I've been thinking of getting Clear at home to replace my Comcast but those speeds are holding me back. Hopefully once Sprint/Clear finishes rolling out new cities they'll expand and beef up the cities they've finished, at least thats my hope.

Yeah it is a bit disappointing... Around west kendall they just lit up the 4g about a week ago however I feel that my 3g got worse.... Gay!

Im all over miami driving around all day and the 3g is pretty bad. Glad I know its not was only me.

I'm up in broward & inside my house the 3g sux ass & 4g can't Evan get a signal , out aide though its a hole different thing I get full 3g & 4G if I'm in range I'm getting pretty good signal .
I work in Miami lakes & the signal is not that great either .
My theory is that the 3g is about to be Evan slower as soon as they have more 4G towers , every 4G tower that comes up we will have less 3g signal

Wow, I had those 3G Speeds back when I had the HTC Hero.
Rev.B should be faster.
Your actually running the 3G speeds we should have but don't. So it would be even better for you when/if Rev. B rolls out.

Damn I'm definitely jealous only can get around 2mbps if I use the Verizon prl hack

I guess I'd be jealous of the packers too if I had to play them...hopefully they pull out a win at soldier field this weekend. Back on topic I'm glad the speeds improved around here on 3g, because I'm running MIUI no 4g.

Wow. I just ran a test after reading this and my speeds were the highest they have ever been.
2.4mb/700kb. Earlier jnvthe week I was on here wining about tower problems. I wonder if the problems I was having was due to some upgrade. I never ever have my expectations exceeded. Thanks sprint! Knocks on wood.

+10. Why would you say unlimited 4g? Then it turns into hspa+ then 2gb of "unlimited data" then slow me down to 1G.? Wtf? I went to simple mobile after that.....then I went to sprint - where customer service is a plus. If your phone gets messed up you can go to a repair center to get it fixed n replaced. AND YOU GET REAL UNLIMITED 4G........DATA THROTTLE DOESNT EXIST IN SPRINT......#IMJustSaying

1/4 of your normal speed? your normal speed must be very sloooow.. when i get throttled, my speed gets reduced to 56kbps. my unthrottled speed averages from 5-7mbps. i solved getting throttled by changing my plan to 10gb data before being throttled. whats your data plan? maybe you need to raise it. btw, im with tmobile.

I went thru the same thing as a Sprint customer but I called n complained & they did some type of refreshing n viola I was gOod

LTE means nothing if coverage is low. Matter of fact, Wimax is theoretically proven to be faster than LTE. Don't know why people think LTE is so great.

Tmobile doesn't really have 4g service!

Ok so why call something 4g service when it's really just 3g service. That's lying to customers! We Won't see 4g until 2013 it seems! Kinda makes me want to leave Tmobile!

Another challenge will be in the confusion brought on by its own definition of 4G. Since 2010, T-Mobile renamed its HSPA+ network--widely considered a 3G technology--its 4G network. With the widespread availability of HSPA+, T-Mobile was able to boast of having the nation's largest 4G network.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

But yet they call it 4g and throttle you when you go over the really 3g service! Stupid!
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

Semantics... It is what it is - doesn't matter what you call it.
If you're going to leave a good provider that has good rates for something as petty as that, you've got bigger issues than T-Mobile calling their service 4g...
That's just my opinion though... No offense intended.

not sure if you know or don't know, but even LTE is not considered 4G
true 4G is still far away from any service
all the service providers are advertising 4G but they are all fake, as non of them really meets the 4G specifications

First of all know your facts . Now the person who said late isn't really 4g is right. But on another note in certain areas T-Mobile is just as fast as Verizon and sprint . I get speeds of 15 - 20 mbps. Its all about area that you are in.

True 4g is atleast 100mbps and guess what nobody hits that. Its all bull but yes lte is def faster then hspa+. Only the uneducated think that these bs services are real 4g and sadly not to many people know really just how fast 4g is supposed to be if they did these companys would have a problem

im from phoenix and i get "4G" almost anywhere in the valley, not so much when indoors , but it is kinda fast ...

Ill takes my fake 4G battery life ove LTE!
sent from the Dark §¡3€

lol.... really?

The whole "4g" is just a marketing gimmick, but i don't really care as long as im getting 11500kbps download most of the time, sometime i even get 15000kbps.

It was a big deal before about this basically any company with new technology is consider 4g now. Hspa+ can be 4g if it reached 100 mbs. The network must reach over 100mbs not any phone. Lte isn't consider 4g either but lte-A is considered 4g.

i dont want to be mean or anything but this is really really old news and probably has been posted a million and a half times. no carrier in the world has true LTE Advanced which is set to be "real" 4G. All the current "4G" monikers are just stopgaps until they can implement LTE Advanced or a 4G compliant WiMAX.
I wouldnt quit just because tmo is advertising 4G when it really does not, because you'll be stuck looking for a 4G compliant carrier with nothing to switch to.
