Here we see a rare congregation of feral AT&T trucks, grazing in their native habitat behind the dollar store and recycling place. I did not dare stop my car, for your average AT&T truck start

It's cool seeing the speedtests being posted however in my own personal experience I've yet to break 4Mbps. Not really a big deal since even with 1 bar of LTE it's been a fairly reliable connection all throughout town and will only get better the more towers go live.

Quick question.... What is a "legacy" tower? They keep calling Kerman's lonely tower this.  I have photo evidence that NV panels have been installed and that the cabinets were also being worked on.  What can this mean or is this just CS lingo to get you off the phone?

Legacy = non upgraded old equipment.

But how can this be true when in fact is has been hardware upgraded (at least in the air)? Maybe it is all or nothing? So like the cabinet work wasn't all done but the tower panels are finished and this is still "legacy"?

A tower may have been physically upgraded but not active. In that case the legacy equipment is still running and thus the site is considered a legacy site. The moment the new equipment is turned on and the old equipment turned of is when the site is officially considered network vision upgraded and not legacy.

Just to lighten it up a bit. This is how I have felt as NV has been deployed.

 

If I am breaking forum rules, I apologize in advance.  But at least watch it first before deleting the post.   :lol:

I'm kinda fearful that Clovis wont 3G launch until Fresno is closer to 3G launch. Then again, Sacramento hasn't launched but the surrounding communities have.

 

Just freaking do it already. Knock down the Rodeo site if you have to.

...or put it on the adjacent, superior tower.

Poor Fresno.  I wonder if the city is just that difficult?  Fresno didn't get any reliable 4G wimax but it was promised.  And now is being left out of the LTE until last.  It has to be frustrating to know that Mendota received LTE before Fresno.  But I digress.  There is a lot of progress now vs. being left in wonderville.

      Official Tmobile-Sprint merger discussion thread

      I think the push for them is adding US Mobile as a MVNO with a priority data plan.  Ultimately, making people more aware of priority would allow them (and other carriers) to differentiate themselves from MVNOs like Consumer Cellular that advertise the same coverage. n77 has dramatically reduced the need for priority service at Verizon where the mere functioning of your phone was in jeopardy a couple of years ago if you had a low priority plan like Red Pocket. Only have heard of problems with T-Mobile in parts of Los Angeles. AT&T fell in between. All had issues at large concerts and festivals, or sporting events if your carrier has no on-site rights. Edit: Dishes native 5g network has different issues: not enough sites, limited bandwidth. Higher priority would help a few. Truth is they can push phones to AT&T or T-Mobile.

      Tracfone AT&T sims went from QCI 8 to 9 as well a couple years ago. I'm pretty neutral towards AT&T's turbo feature here, the only bad taste left was for those who had unadvertised QCI 7 a couple months ago moved down to 8. In my eyes it would have been a lot better for AT&T to include turbo in those Premium/Elite plans for free to keep them at QCI 7, while also introducing this turbo add on option for any other plans or devices. As it stands now only a handful of plans can add it, and only if you're using a device on a random list of devices AT&T considers to be 5G smartphones.

      My Red Pocket AT&T GSMA account was dropped to QCI 9 about a year ago.  Most recently 8 for the last few years prior.  Voice remains at 5.

      https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/05/att-announces-7-monthly-add-on-fee-for-turbo-5g-speeds/ Hopefully we don't ever see T-Mobile do something like this. Based on how I was treated with my Credit Limit, it's definitely not the same company it was before the merger, and it's entirely possible they'd try it.
