For the first time I noticed some small cells in West L.A. So far, the parts of the city that have multiple deployments include: Koreatown, parts of Hollywood, NoHo and now West LA. There's probab

I am failing to see the point of posting repetitive bad 3G speed tests. We all experience poor Sprint 3G performance in many places on the network. Help me to understand how this is helpful or goes

1x800 in Hawaiian Gardens! As close as I have seen to SBC so far. Might just be testing because it keeps going back and forth to 1xRTT.

Los Angeles, CA

(Metro Area Reports & Data)

 

 

 

San Fernando Valley speeds are varying daily. One day they might top out at about 1mbps download, the next they can be all but dead with anywhere from no 3G at all to about 0.05mbps.

Santa Monica, CA speeds are on average 0.10 - 0.30mbps download speeds.

 

...upload speeds in your areas!

Please upload your results for Los Angeles via speedtest, etc & any opinions and findings throughout LA. I created this Los Angeles topic because the time for LA's 4G LTE is drawing near! This forum is for talk about Los Angeles, it's rollout, current speeds, and 4G LTE testing and rollout news when it happens! Also, please post any tweaks or suggestions on signal improvement on 4G LTE capable devices and...

Merci Beaucoup! Enjoy!

As u can see the speeds go up and down.I am in Glendale close to downtown.Outside home the speeds are better and there is a tower like one mile that close to it the speed jump to almost 2mbps.

 

Do these speeds remain consistent or are they variable (one day this way; the next totally different)?

Is this normal during NV 'upgrades'?! Is my area even still being upgraded?

I just got the best speed test I have ever received in Calabasas at my house! Just a few minutes ago (previous post above) I got the worst ever. Fingers crossed.. Maybe some work is being done?? :fingers:

Not really sure why this thread was created when we already have a thread dedicated to the LA market.

Unfortunately since Oxnard is in the north LA market, we don't know yet when it will be started.

 

For comparison though, here's a speed test from the other day in Ventura on the way to work. I did notice they enabled eHRPD as of a week or so ago. Sort of off topic though, until north LA is underway.

I'm getting ehrpd in a new location now but it still drops to EvDo while I'm commuting so I'm thinking that it must not be prevalent enough yet throughout Los Angeles to hold.

 

On the other side, I've been able to successfully stream music while at work for the first time in a long time despite slow speeds. I was also talking to some other people who have sprint who mentioned how bad the network has been in the last 3 or so months with more dropped calls and dead spots. Sprint would be wise to educate its users that it is upgrading the network or else I can see some leaving b/c of the upgrade pains.

      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.
