I also drive by there to and from work daily, didn't notice anything this morning but wasn't looking for it either. Will keep my eye out. Not going that way tomorrow though. Usually get a very good signal there (I stream music in my car) a couple blocks in either direction is not so good! LOL! Especially around first and Ashlan, calls are very iffy there.

My 3G in Tulare has been off most of the day does anyone know about that

Yeah same here, my 3g hasn't been working right since yesterday but I haven't seen anyone around the towers lately

3G in the Visalia/Tulare area has been troublesome the past few days. I was in contact with Sprint Tuesday and they saw there were data problems with my local tower in Visalia and submitted a trouble ticket for it. Call Sprint and let them know so they can look into it. So far it seems to be rolling data blackouts at times.

Today at around 4 while I was at my house I noticed I had 1-2 bars which I usually have 3-4 so I got off my wifi and noticed it said lte and checked my speed and it was awesome and now it's still showing lte but once in a while turns back into 3G while I'm still at my house which is located in the southern part of Tulare ( I don't know how to post a sc on here haha so sorry)

I was passing by Ashlan and cedar and seen sprint working on the tower there have no clue what they were doing but had 5 trucks there

 

I went by there again tonight. There's three sites on that corner: One is Sprint, one is AT&T, and the other is VZW, Tmob, or Cricket. There was a lift and a couple of dudes working on the AT&T site. Why I have no clue, but that's probably what you saw.

 

I happened to drive by another site that is nearby a few days ago and saw two guys inside the enclosure checking things out. It looked like one of those "there's where the wires go, Jim" type of things, but progress is progress.

Very cool. It's slowly starting to happen, people...

so it seems as if LTE is on in tulare :) . But i have a question if anyone can answer it, when were tulare towers done being upgraded???

I've seen them working on them for the last 5 months, They usually only take a day or two from what I've seen. Yesterday I seen more antennas go up by Loves looked liked sprint to me :)

It takes a few days for the equipment itself to be installed, but it will still have paperwork and inspections to go through, too. I'm not sure of the time frame that Tulare and Visalia look at between completion of installation and acceptance. Perhaps MacinJosh can chime in when he can...

    • Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

    • Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.
    • Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.  
    • Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
