Just wondering, Is a tower that connects eHRPD already upgraded? -
Tonight, I tracked four live LTE sites along the K-7 corridor in the western suburbs of Kansas City. The four sites from north to south are as follows: KC03XC117 (K-7 and 83rd St) KC03XC166 (K-7 and K-10) KC13XC367 (K-7 and 119th St) KC60XC066 (downtown Olathe) Much like PN offsets, serving cell IDs are sequential, their trailing two digits following a clockwise pattern among the three sectors (N/SE/SW) on each site. The serving cell IDs for the three sectors of the four sites are as follows: 04C07D01/04C07D02/04C07D03 04C09001/04C09002/04C09003 04C13F01/04C13F02/04C13F03 04C1A901/04C1A902/04C1A903 Now that multiple, adjacent sites (rather than single, isolated sites) have gone live, very strong signal close in to a site with direct line of sight averages around -85 dBm RSRP and -6 dB RSRQ. Finally, I intentionally drove out of the live LTE footprint to observe the fallback to eHRPD (EV-DO). I did this twice and observed that the drop threshold for LTE seems to be set approximately -123 dBm RSRP. AJ- 20 replies

Sprint has recently announced plans to allow Direct Connect Users to use CDMA Direct Connect over their 2G network. Sprint believes their CDMA 1x network has enough bandwidth to handle the calls. This triples the reach of Sprint's Direct Connect network. This creates a nationwide CDMA Direct Connect network. Now people using iDen can switch to a reliable service. Please be aware if you do use Direct Connect over the 1x network you may notice the sound quality is poor or have trouble connecting. Sprint has said that once you are connected you should have reliable voice connection.

I am reporting that work has begun in southwest Florida region. Speeds are increasing greatly from 100-200 KB per second to 1-1.5 MB per second. Also signal has being getting better in a variety of locations around the region. The final reason I can confirm this is that near my house workers are updating a tower replacing legacy equipment with newer equipment. The other day I stopped by the site and asked if they were updating Sprint's equipment and the worker said they were installing LTE equipment. The worker said the network should fully be up in running in Southwest Florida with in six months.

Is there any progress in the Houston area. I live In Baytown which is about 30 - 40 minutes away from Downtown Houston and i'm back and forth between both cause of work. Baytown usually gets updated along with Houston, when Houston got 4g so did we. so i was wondering how long does it take engineers to upgrade the tower and how many do they do in a certain time period? I do notice a difference where i work with 3g speed ( 100 - 500kbs. still don't get over 600kbs but its better then 30kbs like before). Though i'm guessing that was just a quick fix update from what i see on https://network.sprint.com/ . So how will we know once Network Vision is in place? Also. i know that Verizon and AT&T use 10x10s and the 700mhz frequencies which call for less towers and sprint is going to use 5x5s on the 1900mhz. I see people saying that its bad cause capacity and speed wont be as big or compare to Verizon and AT&T. But seeing how sprint already has so many towers that use the 1900mhz, capacity and speed shouldn't be an issue right? sorry i just recently started keeping up with technology and how networks work...
