This wasn't where I live, I'll post those tomorrow. Not worth posting at night because towers aren't congested and thus inflate real world numbers.

Edit: New Data
Throttled: No

Thanks!

Additional: These three are from various locations around the North Dallas, Irving, and or Garland areas. I can't remember precisely where, but as you can see, a couple of good speeds and some mediocre. But all better than the 3G speeds we were getting on Metro.

Additional: This area has High data speeds for the big 4 besides sprint. My co worker gets near 20.0 on Tmo. This was during peak hours on 3 different test servers (to rule out server lags). During other times of day the data speed is near double down and up with same ping.

I'm in a high high coverage area. Throttled speeds are supposed to be 3G as opposed to 4G, but as clear from my results they are even slower than 2G

If I call metro says they show I'm reaching speeds of..... Insert number here... I used ookla speedtest
