Verizon's LTE network has expanded once again, adding coverage for an additional six markets, the carrier recently announced. The new locations are: Durango, Colo.; Corbin and Madisonville, Ky.; Adrian and Mount Pleasant, Mich.; and Marietta, Ohio.
As such, Verizon subscribers can now access the carrier's 4G network in an impressive 497 locations nationwide. It is estimated that by the middle of this year, all of Verizon's 3G markets will be covered by its super fast LTE network.
Earlier this month, rival carrier AT&T also expanded its LTE network to cover additional U.S. locations, and is presently available in 221 markets. Though some subscribers had previously reported sluggish cellular download speeds, a recent hack allows iPhone owners to give their AT&T-powered smartphone a speed boost.
