Which Clear?

uh. There are 2 networks they operate. Pre-Wimax and then the new network.

Clear does NOT equal clearwire. Know the network your on to give actual reviews.

I'm on Clear WiMAX getting a download speed of 1.61 mb/s in Seattle. First day of service. All 5 lights steady on the modem. I hope it continues. However not exactly the 3-6mb/s as advertised.

the other companys that use the same tech... are leasing Clear's tech they don't have any of their own... Sprint's "4G" is clearwires and so is comcast and mediacom. the only other company with anything even close to it is verizon, which is still in the testing phase and runs on a lower and slow frequency

I happen to work for Clear and can tell you, Clear and Clearwire, are in fact the same company. Clearwire was the predecessor to clear, Clearwire(expedience) service is our limited 2G service, Clear is the new 4G service that will eventually be replacing all of the clearwire markets and looking at total nationwide coverage within 7 years. So, then Clearwire will be no more just Clear.

You are right that our tech is our own, and we operate on a licensed frequency of 2.5GHz which is also exclusive to us. The microwave transmission of our signal is also exclusively with us. However, the 3g/4g modem we offer is through Sprint, rather Xohm a subsidiary of Sprint. the tech is 50/50, the 4g activity of the modem is ours, but the 3G is sprint's.
