RURAL/SUBURBAN SOUTH CENTRAL: AT&T<br />

AT&T’s traditional strength in Texas gave it a solid win<br />

in our South Central drive, which took us down I-35<br />

from Oklahoma City to Dallas and Austin, and then<br />

across primarily on I-10 to Houston and New Orleans.<br />

We made extra stops in Purcell, OK, Temple, TX, and<br />

Lake Charles, LA.<br />

AT&T had the fastest download and upload speeds in<br />

Texas and Oklahoma, making it an easy pick. The biggest<br />

surprise here, meanwhile, was when Sprint did very well.<br />

87Mbps and 113Mbps downloads in Temple? Yes, please.<br />

Sprint’s wobblier coverage on the Texas-Louisiana<br />

border prevented it from scoring better, though.<br />

RURAL/SUBURBAN NORTHWEST: VERIZON<br />

Our Northwest driving segment included the I-5 corridor<br />

from Seattle to San Francisco, I-15 through Utah, I-80<br />

through Wyoming, and I-25 from Fort Collins to Denver.<br />

Verizon won by a landslide here because of its superior<br />

coverage. It’s the only nationwide carrier with a solid<br />

LTE network through both Utah and Wyoming. AT&T<br />

had surprising coverage drops in both Utah and<br />

southern Oregon.
