LTE and 3G in SLC

PC Magazine’s Fastest Mobile Networks 2015:

We hit 30 U.S. cities to test mobile data speeds on AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon Wireless, and found the most competitive wireless landscape in six years. Find out which network is the best where you live.

I’m most interested in the Salt Lake City, Utah results. First up, LTE:

AT&T and Verizon are basically tied on the TTFB ( Time To First Byte ). The slowest, T-Mobile was 32% slower than the fastest.

Next, 3G:

AT&T is the clear TTFB winner here. The range is brutal, T-Mobile was more than 4X slower than the winner. Even the second place position, Sprint, was 43% slower than AT&T.
