Verizon Vs. Xohm Bench Testing In Boston Commons

Why is this the ultimate bench test? I got to sit outside with 70 degree fall weather in the Boston Commons – On a bench. Ahhhh.



For those of you who are regular readers of our blog, I promise we will get back to more car computing content soon. We are one of the few people in the country who have active wimax hardware so there is almost a sense of duty that has set in.
Verizon - 3 tests in a row from using Speekeasy's andwidth test tool


Xohm 3 tests in a row from using Speekeasy's andwidth test tool


Talk about this post in our wimax forums.

nation wide

I live 90 miles outside of chicago, and travel in my car for work roughly 16 hours a week, are there plans for nation wide coverage, and if there is what is the time frame for this great tech!
I mobile DJ on the weekends, will this be available if I plug it into my laptop for song downloads on the job? Or do I need to power this from an external souce? Even if I had to have my car there, I suppose I could save to a usb HD or memory card, but it would be great if I could plug and download right from the laptop.
Great testing! Really really exciting new tech!

MikeH is on a distinguished road
Rob,

Can you explain the uplink speed difference for the Xohm measurements that you posted earlier? They were almost 10X higher than what you experienced in this measurement.

I have no idea why the upload speeds were so low. My guess is that they have some type of non-commercial asymmetrical link at the tower for testing purposes only.

We have been very pleased with the upload tests in Baltimore so this must be a result of Boston being a test network.

I will be up in Boston again over thanksgiving and will test it again then.

I should try the network in Dallas

Maybe I should try the network in Dallas. I'm in Austin (a little bit south of Dallas).

Would you be kind and post your findings in Boston on our web site: WiMAXED.com?

Thank you!
