I did this test driving through Little Rock,AR on I-30, but I got similar speeds 30-50Mbs in the middle of farmlands along the Interstates  through Tx,Mo,IL,IN,Mi:  :x  Amazing fast ;  :rock
I'm getting 20 mbs down and 10 mbs up  only on my home cable for double price ,here in Ontario. :(
...BTW don't upload this test unless you have unlimited data,: I busted  3 GB running a dozen of speed tests  :lol

Seems pretty normal for LTE. I have got over 80Mb/s on a good day. Right now:

So you're sure it's 20/10 megabits on your home cable?

It's funny how rain and snow can actually improve your connection speed instead of slowing it down as you would expect from a wireless. It started snowing here and the speed went up:

I hope they will extend the LTE advanced network here soon. My LTE router is capable of 300Mb/s speed.

Great speed but is it worth dying for?

Would it help to tell we pay 32 bucks a month for unlimited speed/data LTE?  :devil

You just make a regular contract. They give you a special sim thats activated for data only, no phonecalls. I have a Huawei 5186 Cat6 router thats handling all my home and work traffic. Works much better than the old ADSL.

Try getting a beaming antenna. I invested some 200 bucks to a 4G dual polarization antenna, that guarantees good connection speeds even though my house is at the edge of the coverage area.
