He was right about WiMax? So he told you that Clearwire was deploying WiMax Protection Sites around Detroit to just meet FCC substantial service requirements? Because, if he didn't say that, he wasn

Got a pretty strong B41 signal ???? around Metropolitan Parkway (16 mile) and Gratiot today also. Looks like the upgrades in the Macomb area are taking off. Hope it continues, data speeds aren't the worst but definitely nothing to brag over. Hall Rd\M59 area needs B41 asap.

This area is miserable. I was at that LA Fitness during the day on the 14th and was able to stream google music, first time ever in that area. Weekday congestion a big thing over there?

 

Funny at southfield/12 speeds are 25mbps+ and band 41. Greenfield and 12 they're back to 0.0x mbps.

From the premier schedule, SE mich b41 is extreme close to being done.

So someone - won't say who and not trying to stir up trouble - asked me, a Premier, to tell them any b41 info about this market I could say.

 

I WAS gonna say "b26/b41 schedule map indicates all b41 sites should be finished by [censored]" but then I remembered I probably couldn't say that here but wasn't sure.

 

So if a staff/moderator wants to give that date, go ahead but I like my premier and don't wanna lose it.

Other than to say something very vague like, 'they are actively working on a lot of sites in the area,' you should avoid answering people's questions about Sponsor content. Thank you for trying to be helpful to other members without compromising Sponsor content. Thank you.

I recently noticed that I get Band 41 at my house, but only after turning my phone on, from having it off. But, it switches me back over to Band 25, and am wondering why it doesn't stay connected. Weirdly enough, I actually live within about a mile, of three cell towers. I know the one has Band 41, which is at 6 Mile and Middlebelt, the two Band 25 towers, one at 7 Mile and Middlebelt, the other located at Redford Union High School. Any indication, as to why my phone doesn't stay connected to Band 41?

Why don't you at least become a sponsor for $5 so you can see where towers are?

Because Sprint has a part of their website where their towers can be seen, the updates, and where they are, for free. http://network.sprint.com/index.html

Why pay? Plus I live paycheck to paycheck.

Not all sites are included on that page, and B41 upgrades are not noted. As upgrades pass a certain number of months old, they fall off that map. 

 

Also, this site lives off of Sponsor donations. It is the generous nature of our members that keeps the lights on and ad free.

Would it be do bad to have ads?

      Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.

      Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.

      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.
