Official Rev A discussion

[pflatlyne]

I definatly get rev a speeds. I get about 1100 down and over 300 up. That 1600down and 700 up really looks nice. Wish I could get that. =) In any event,all the problems I had before due to the limited upload bandwidth are gone. Rev A rocks.

The first thing I tried last night was making a call while in a data session,but it did not work. Contrary to what people are saying,EVDO Rev A CAN support voice during a data session,BUT it seems sprint has either chosen not to impliment it or does not yet have it working.

I only got the 1600/700 once. After that it was mostly in the 1100/400 range.

Still not bad considering it beats most cheap DSL connections (768/12 and even comes close to 3/768 DSL connections, with latency that's not a WHOLE lot slower than a DSL connection.

well, it seems the Sprint coverage maps are BS, because it says there's EV-DO Rev. A coverage in Puerto Rico, but the fastest result I had was 658 down/125 up, which definitely is NOT Rev. A. those 1100kbps+ results sound sweet!! lol, anyways, it's nice to have a working update :P

Performed three tests back to back. Appears Im hitting a tower with only one T1. But the upload looks like its Rev A.

I only hit a 800 upload once, other than that it hovers around 300-600. I hit 1.6mbit at one point, but again, it seems to hover around 1200ish.

I think it is definetely RevA.

Using WMWifiRouter... This program is sweet. 1-2 bars of signal. I can check dbm if needed.

[esqueue]

Yup, rev a here. I'm really proud of my upload.

[no2chem]

....definitely rev a. ... 600kbps up?!

[no2chem]

a little slower over wmwifirouter than usb...
