Are they Rogers?? I know the Telus network has LTE here, but no one I know who is with Rogers can grab LTE yet. I have rebooted the phone and made sure LTE was enabled. No luck….

Ce matin sur la Capitale de Henri IV à environs Le Stade Municipal sur Laurentienne… j’ai pogné du LTE de environs 18mbps. C’est décevant pour l’instant pour la couverture, Peux être que pas toute les antennes LTE sont starté.

Sur le site de Rogers la carte de couverture indique que c’est suposé de fonctionner pratiquement partout en ville alors que j’ai toujours pas de LTE dans le coin de Saint-Roch/Charest.

J’ai aussi une drole de couverture aujourd’hui. Je suis dans la zone et je n’avais que 3G ce matin chez nous. Au bureau, seulement 3G ce matin mais ce midi, j’avais du LTE (10-12mbps down et 6-13 up) … Souhaitons que ca s’améliore dans les prochains jours.

Fido is owned by Rogers, but they do not share networks. I’ve talked to some people in the know.

Nope, I can guarantee it. Also, check out their coverage, Fido has less coverage than Rogers. This isn’t what I’m going by, it’s just the facts

LTE will be in the north pole before we get it in Winnipeg. Besides on MTS who won’t enable it for iPhone 5. I think I will convert to Amish since that seems to be the mentality of local telco’s.

If you’re showing LTE on your phone for a network, then your plan is already LTE enabled. Rogers had stated previously that all existing data plans would be switched to LTE capable by the end of September.
