It’s officially live. Rogers LTE (Long Term Evolution) has spread itself across Canada. The official press release has not been sent out but looking at their dedicated LTE site says that LTE speeds are “now available in Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, and Ottawa” – which reaches 5.5 million Canadians. For now, the only device that’s available is the Sierra Wireless AirCard 313U. According to Rogers LTE will be capable of hitting download speeds of 100 Mbps but “typical download speeds ranging from 12 Mbps to 25 Mbps”. Below is the current and future LTE coverage map for each location.

Update: Here are some results of Rogers LTE network in Toronto, vai Speedtest.net:

  1. Being from Ottawa, it’s kinda sad to see that they are not planing any expansion to the LTE Network here yet… but Lots in MTL, Toronto, and Van.

    I often go just outside the planned LTE Limits (i.e. Embrun, Rockland)

    *crosses fingers*

    • @phoneguy

      the difference is Rogers subscribers can fall back on GSM/HSPA+ connection without roaming charges outside the LTE coverage, can you say the same for PM’s zones? Didn’t think so..

  3. Coverage will remain as is unless Rogers gets a boat load of customers using the LTE network, if no one uses it, what is the point of expansion? The only sector where LTE will make a difference, is for gaming enthusiasts on their mobile devices. The current HSPA network is more than adequate in speed/data allowance.
    I am curious to find out wht the maximum data reciever/transmitter speed ,in the LTE phones, will be.

    Or the speedtest app is not the best way to test LTE speeds

  10. Hmm, needless to say, where I live there is no LTE coverage either by Rogers/Bell, so its not worth getting it, because a)Live in Richmond Hill and b) work in Newmarket. Rarely go to Toronto

  11. 3G getting a speed boost/ping as well because of the bigger pipes/less strain? Could be.
