@speedifylive: Replying to @ttxxzz8 What made LTE different from WiMAX - and why did WiMAX lose? #tech #wifi #techtok #technews #techtoktips #engineering #greenscreen
Sprint had a hell of a lot more issues than backing WiMAX. There was that whole incompatible Nextel acquisition, too.

I had Clear for a hot minute in like 2009 or 2010 while living in Chicago. It was bad, the towers near me were constantly down.

Lower frequencies better penetrate buildings and underground to Metroes etc.

Sprint was also painfully slow to switch to lte and enable things like “Spark”

There was also an underground battle for patents, each company tries to be part of the standard to get royalties, so companies will support the network giving them the best royalties
