Network Vision/LTE - Las Vegas Market

[Rawvega]

Boulder hwy and water st. I got lte this last night and this morning.

 

Yeah I got a blip of LTE at that spot. I had Sensorly running at the time so it should be mapped. I couldn't find the cell site that it was coming from though. And driving around for a few minutes, I couldn't replicate the signal.

I can't figure it out either.

 

It might be the tower up at Boulder & Gibson.

All the way Home from Blue Diamond to Sahara (I15 stretch) and inside Cosmopolitan Casino today I had LTE signal, must have upgraded last night. I didn't get anything yesterday.

Try to get a speed test if possible

 

I got this speed test earlier inside of toys r us on corner of Maryland and flamingo

Think y'all need to post the message about the speedtests before this turns into the NYC e-penis thread.

 

iPhone users can't map but they sure can post screen shots of their location they found LTE, the signal strength, and the LTE engineering screen showing both the serving cell and cell identity on the same screen. They can even track down the sites via the signal strength and cell identity using the last 2 digits after turning it into HEX to cheat if they want.

Looking good can wait to get it on my area they need to hurry up and flip the switch on

If it was only a switch it would have been done by now.

Here is a test at the corner of Flamingo/Maryland earlier today. http://t.co/czMd0WLEkg

Hey guys I am new to this even tho I've checked here there on u guys I never signed up until now and reason why is cause I have some news I just saved a bunch of money by switching to geico lol sorry couldn't help it no seriously I just recently joined LVAC and was working out with my girl and she's like look babe 4g and I was like wattt!!!! Stopped running and saw 3g then I started turning signal on and of like resetting it and bamm LTE SO LVAC ON FLAMINGO AND 215 and also down flamingo up to Durango then it stops cause I live on Jones and flamingo so hopefully that's new good news!!!

[ibustonyou]

Been at work near flamingo and paradise today and getting 4g been using sensorly to track

Goes as far as eastern and south to russell

Hopefully the whole city is just around this looooong corner !

Its been a couple months sense I posted pictures of the equipment being replaced in Kingman and for the most part, it appears most of the towers have been updated (If not all) in the area. I've seen the new sites up from Kingman to Havasu, a lot of the sites have removed the old hardware, and there is a noticeable difference in distance and speed in 3G. North of Kingman there is a small golf community called Valley Vista which is in line of sight but about 16 miles north. There used to be little to no service there, but now I can get around there with 2-4 bars depending on my location.

 

Still no LTE. Does anyone know how long it takes from the time its a up and running network to flip the switch? Another quick question, its about backhaul. Does LTE have its own dedicated network that it uses separate from the others? It seems for over a year now that during peak times 3G isn't just slow, it's literally unusable even when running on new equipment. Can someone explain to me how this will improve with LTE?

It seems to me when I drove thru Kingman last Thursday that backhaul hasn't been done there yet. It's crazy to me. And when Network Vision is complete, 1X/EVDO/LTE will all run thru the new backhaul. Hopefully soon it will all come into place, but not before I come back thru on Monday.

It could be anything from a power outage to someone went and dug and severed a fiber line because they weren't paying attention, to an issue at the switch, or even too many users using that site all at once. The bad thing is in a market that has not been announced if it has to do with LTE, they won't open a trouble ticket. <img src='http://s4gru.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

But if your 3g is out as well they will open a ticket

 

It's 420 somewhere

You might get some service inside some of the CityCenter hotels according to Sensorly, especially the front of The Cosmopolitan.

They better hurry up before summer for their own sake in Las Vegas. I know how brutal the summer is there. I won't go near the strip in the middle of summer.

Sake in Las Vegas? Maybe if Softbank holds their first Spank convention there. Then the sake will be flowing!

Daughter works at the RIO...Sensorly shows lte up & down I15 but not INSIDE the RIO; I'll be going there next week; upstairs on the second floor I get the strongest Wimax signal INSIDE anywhere I've been in Vegas..so I'll take my SW Tri Fi and MacBook to see how strong LTE is at the same spot; I can't map it (no LTE phone yet) but I can hopefully get some download tests to share; if I get an LTE signal I'll move around in the casino to see how well it penetrates..

[digiblur]

That really seems to be a typical issue with LTE. You need a really strong LTE signal to get it to work indoors.
