TSTT WiMax 4G/Hotspot and HSPA+ Thread

[nixonliketheprez]

The thing is the option wasn't even there this morning

So jus spoke to a bmobile rep she says they haven't launched the phone what's in d papers is a missed print. Spoke to one earlier that said the reason why the order online option isnt there is because they are deal with online orders they got earlier. but the damn order option was never on d site!! Clearly no one in bmobile knows whats goin on.

What I believe if we examine it and think.. You'd notice all say 05...
So where you have 2005 it's probably 200 SMS and 5Gb data

Likewise with 400 and 600

Oh ho - now realise the typo. My bad

[Kronik]

On the iPhone 5 plans, apart from the handset prices, am I seeing right for the 4G data limits???

2005GB, 4005GB and 6005GB limits? As opposed to Digicel's 1GB, 2Gb and 4GB limits?

That's practically unlimited data if those amounts are correct

Their iPhone 5 press release said 5GB for all three tiers, those limits are most likely errors.

Actual the 200 400 & 600 are just misaligned. Watch the heading next to the data amt. I think is sms or something

I posted this in the Apple thread earlier.

[JJ16]

That's the 24month plan, they also advertised a 12month plan

[RASC]

So the carriers are deciding to go the American phone plan model regards to plans. Crapaud smoke allyuh pipe. Prepare thy angus for data usage and etf (early termination fees)


Edit: Now seeing the option for 1year contracts. Okay that's not so bad.

[mojosodope]

Their 4G infrastructure better be able to handle and deliver quality service to the influx of customers this is going to draw otherwise we would see a situation similar or worse than what AT&T had to deal with when the iPhone 3G launched.

[pete]

Maybe that's why they offering 5GB.. Like.. "Try and use that at 256k nah"

[JJ16]

I still have edge but for some strange reason it's moving extremely quick....

Also I got a SMS from Bmobile saying I have 66.1mb remaining.

Anyone got anything similar or knows what that about? And btw I have the unlimited edge data package

[Motofreek]

@pete. By 256k I assume you are talking about an EDGE connection right? Wel lemme tell you, I have been a casual user of TSTT 's prepiad data since it launched and I never actually received a connection speed of 256k. Most I ever got was 180k. Now with this HSPA+ connection, I get a connection of about 1.8mbps which is a huge improvement. My data usage has gone up because I actually enjoy using it for the reduced cost.

BTW: They initially charged $4.00 per MB then it was reduced to $2. for an edge connection. Now its 80¢ for approx. 7 times faster speed!!!

[jsm1985]

Postpaid account here and when I check my plan usage with *121# it says I have ~1450mb remaining. Still on edge only. Have no idea what that means.

[S_2NR]

The people that gettin H on their phones..what settings u all using? The internet apn?

[SRASC]

Tried it on a friend's HTC. APN: bconnected. Basically the same prepaid data APN.

[Swisha]

is it working for any postpaid ppl?

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ postpaid users have to opt in for the service since data charges will be sent to their bill rather than taken from their credit.

I believe postpaid customers will be given a code to text in to opt in for the service when it launches.

[Swisha]

hopefully i can migrate from my current iphone plan to a new one without fuss...

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

Been using bmobile 4G for a couple days now and must say I am impressed with the speeds.

A LOT faster in my area compared to Digicel. With Digi you would get it constantly switching back to EDGE all the time. Bmobile one while there seems to be some bugs where the H+ will cut off but connect back immediately I would say its very fast and way better reception than Digi. Possibly a little better latency also.

[JJ16]

That's probably because only a few people are using the 4G system at the moment, lets see how those speeds get when the entire country is on

[volcanosnowstorm]

Postpaid account here and when I check my plan usage with *121# it says I have ~1450mb remaining. Still on edge only. Have no idea what that means.

Yeah, just tried it - same thing 14XXmb remaining - although I'm on ultd edge :/ but to be fair, I honestly never checked *121# before... so I dunno if that's new or not.

So, so true. When everyone gets H+ access and starts to use it we will finally get full speed EDGE

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

^ TSTT never had competition before in this 3G area. So they wouldn't care too much about service.

Now they must compete with Digicel so its going to be a totally different story.

[M_2NR]

Digicel throttles. Soon tstt will throttle as well. Anyone get an iPhone 5 yet. Ent it "launch"? LOL. how in God's name they still have the iPhone is beyond me.

[Chiney]

^^ They have money... Money talks.... That is all apple needs to see.
