Hi all,

 

I live in the the Los Gatos Hills area, specifically on Brush Road: http://goo.gl/maps/r4jf

 

Any update on when Sprint's LTE network will be deployed to my area? It's a little farther south than San Jose, but the map shows that I should be covered: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/entry-75-sprint-knows-the-way-to-san-jose-sprints-south-bay-market-will-receive-network-visionlte-deployment-in-the-second-round/

 

In that article it states that deployment to the south bay should start after the San Francisco LTE network has been deployed. Any word on that too?

 

Let me know, thanks!

Very excited to see LTE underground on BART! I think they upgraded the DAS between Colma and SFO. I didn't get LTE underground anywhere else and the SINR was way too high to be coming from an abovegro

Got another B41 site with nearly maxed out speeds.   This is on Alameda near the Webster st tunnel.   Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

San Jose can have LTE after they give back Brent Burns to the Wild.

Any updates on South Bay Market? I live in Salinas and work in all of south Monterey County (Gonzales, Soledad, Greenfield, King City) and the data speeds just keep getting worse. King City and Greenfield had decent speeds until schools let out for summer. Salinas has some spots where download on 1X is "faster" (if you can ignore the higher latency) than EVDO. I'm talking about the difference between 5kbps on EVDO vs 30kbps on 1X. Either way, they are not useful.

If I don't fall behind on articles because of the holiday, the South Bay market schedule update article should post on Thursday.

cool thanks. I was just looking at the Network Vision/LTE Deployment Running List thread which you updated. It shows the SF market doesn't even have one LTE site available yet (expected in October). I take it's going to be several more months of waiting before deployment begins down here. :cry:

New members, before posting new threads inquiring about Network Vision in your market, please check for preexisting articles or threads that may answer your questions.

 

For example, see this article from The Wall:

yea thar Article says "Mid 2012" That was last month. hence why I asked

 

Please check this thread for latest status on market availability. Also do not confuse "1st LTE sites" with "Anticpated launch." The Jan 2013 is the anticipated official launch date for the SF market but at this rate anything can happen it can be pushed back further pending any delays. This is all we know at this point.

Where is this post that you are referring to? San Jose should not have started yet.

We reported SF work would start in August and the first sites should start being completed in September: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/entry-293-san-francisco-bay-area-network-visionlte-deployment-schedule-update/

However, the South Bay work appears ahead of schedule.

I'm not sure if you the admins want to merge this with the thread talking about coverage coming from Appleland, but I thought it was interesting. Maybe it's also coming from Google's campus? I haven't a clue. It's very interesting though, to say the least.

      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.
