Oh my god finally! Universal is now usable on Sprint! Did they totally swap out the Clear B41 with Nokia equipment or did they add it somewhere else?

99.9% guarantee they just turned off the Clear B41 sectors and let the Nokia equipment take over.

The reason I asked was that the Clear B41 originally in the area was extremely fringe throughout the parks when I was there.

 

If the Nokia equipment is in the same place or marginally closer than the Clear antennas, then what was reported appears to be very impressive performance, comparatively speaking.

That clearwire tower was still active when I was there but it used Nokia 41 most of the time.

On Universal Blvd below the Wawa, just above International Drive in my hotel and my phone is struggling on B26. Keeps dropping to 800x but the data is non existant. 

 

Outside, a fairly strong B41 signal.

Taking my family to Disney this week for the first time. I'm excited to see what a tri-band device can do in the Orlando market! We'll be in Miami, West Palm Beach, Orlando, and Venice on our trip - the sensorly maps had me pretty optimistic about coverage & speeds. :)

I was there 2 months ago.  The coverage was good but not great.  I was on a iPhone 5S however so your experience may be better than mine.  Disney's free WIFI covers all their hotels and all their parks and was slow at times but nearly always usable.  I usually found Sprint LTE to be a little slower than the Disney WIFI and just auto-connected to Disney WIFI whenever it was available.  Because of the large number of people on WIFI the macro LTE network has enough capacity available to work with those crowds.

 

Recommendation: Bring a external battery and charging cord to the parks.  People use mobile devices a lot when they are there.

Which is sad.  I miss the days of the Wait Times boards and paper-based fastpasses.  It was a much more enjoyable experience than being a slave to our smartphones or tablets just to navigate the park.

Hey, quick question...Anyone ever heard of Glotel, Inc? I'm perusing permits and this company just was issued permits for two sites that haven't been upgraded with 2.5. Also, they don't have the 65 Mhz radios on them yet either....JW if this is Sprint work?

Any B41 in New Smyrna Beach? Even though I'm in CA, calling parents weekly being on HD voice every single time on our devices is awesome!

Posted this in the Jacksonville thread by mistake:

 

Have there been any 2nd carrier b25 sightings in and around Orlando? Is that even possible? I'm in the airport right now and scp is reporting it

 

 

 

In Orlando sprint is borderline on pcs spectrum holdings with 27.5 mhz of pcs a-f spectrum.

 

In addition your scp is a false positive since 8665 is band 25 pcs g block. The reason why scp is saying second carrier is because the gci ends in 04 since in Samsung markers 03/04/05 denote second carrier.

I just posted the same rebuttal in the other thread where this was posted. I hadn't come across this thread, yet.

    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
    • At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!
    • Did you mean a different site? eNB ID 112039 has been around for years. Streetview even has it with C-band back in 2022 - https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7303042,-73.9610924,3a,24.1y,18.03h,109.66t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g!2e0!5s20220201T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D18.027734930682684%26pitch%3D-19.664180274382204%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu Meanwhile, Verizon's eNB 84484 in Fort Greene has been updated to include C-band and CBRS, but not mmWave. I've seen this a few times now on updated Verizon sites where it's just the CBRS antenna on its own, not in a shroud and without mmWave. Odd.
    • Drove out into the country today.  Dish stuck to my phone like glue. At least -120 rsrp. Likely only good for phone calls (should have tested.) It then switched to T-Mobile. Getting back on Dish was another issue. I am used to dragging out coverage so I expected a few miles, but had to drive at least 10 miles towards a Dish site. Airplane mode, which worked for Sprint, did nothing. Rebooting did nothing. Finally got it to change over about 2 miles from the site by manually setting the carrier to Dish then it had great reception. Sprint used to have a 15 minute timeout but I did not have the patience today.  Previously I did a speed test on Dish out in the country at the edge of Dish coverage. My speeds were 2g variety. Dish has really overclocked some of these sites. Seen rssp readings in the 50s. Would have called them boomer sites with Sprint but much  more common with Dish.
