AT&T announced today that they have expanded their blazing fast 4G LTE to 7 new markets here in the US, which, if you’re keeping count, brings their grand total market coverage to 47 cities here in the states. Those numbers combined cover more than 80 million people. The newest areas that will find themselves rained on by wonderful next-gen 4G LTE data speeds include:
- Greensboro-Winston Salem, North Carolina
- Corpus Christi, Texas
- Gainesville, Georgia
- Buffalo, New York
- Burlington, Vermont
- Wichita, Kansas
- Cleveland, Ohio
More specifically, the Cleveland rollout includes the cities of Breacksville, Brunswick, Elyria, Hinckley, Hudson, Mentor, Solon, Strongsville, Twinsburg, and Wadsworth. As for North Carolina, more detailed areas include Gastonia, Lake Norman, N.C. Hwy. 3 from Kannapolis to Mooresville, U.S. 52 from China Grove to Mooresville, south of Salisbury to Granite Quarry, and U.S. 601 between Concord and Monroe AT&T hopes to finish aggressively rolling out their LTE network across all metro areas by the end of 2013.
Any readers in those areas notice the “4G LTE” icon suddenly appearing in their Android device’s notification bar?
Holy crap! I’ll be in Winston-Salem, NC by Friday! This is just dumb luck for me, considering I’ll be there for a month.
Dat LTE O.o
As the kids nowadays say, “Dat sh*t cray cray.”
OK….Verizon has LTE I’m my area and its taking at&t forever!
Does anybody know when Philly is gonna get AT&T LTE love? I’m tired of HSPA+ on my One X. Whenever I visit NYC it’s always such a tease.
Tired of 7MBps down??? You know, there are kids in Rancho Cucamonga starving for even 1MB data speeds O_o
That shit needs to come to Miami FL ASAP!
Burlington, Vermont is getting LTE service… yet Hartford CT still does not..
Tell me how this makes any damn sense:
Burlington Population: 38,647
Hartford Population: 124,775
I’ll accept the Ohio and Texas LTE additions, but the fact that VERMONT gets LTE before CT does is B.S. I’ve had my Skyrocket for nearly 8 months and the fact that I STILL am stuck with Faux G is beyond mind numbing..
I think a lot of it has to do with available backhaul. Upgrading the radios is relatively simple, but if they don’t have access to enough backhaul capacity to all the towers in an area, then LTE does you no good.
Well I can’t tell because I have the crappy ATRIX 1 with hspa only :+(
Still no Philadelphia or south jersey area
