Was there a network outtage in Vegas yesterday? A friend of mine on Boost in Pahrump said she didn't have service from 9am until 11:30pm last night. If not, I wonder if they replaced tower equipment on one of the Pahrump towers yesterday. No one on any other carrier reported a loss of service, which makes me know it wasn't a broken fiber link in Vegas like the last time cell service died in 2010.

No LTE in Sin City. Instead, Vegas is getting El Tí y, the cheap Mexican knock off.   AJ

Boy thats a long outtage and I'm sure the wife & I would have noticed and been affected by it...so for us , no, no outtage

 

I'll definitely will have them take pictures of the tower. And since all carriers use that tower, everyone knows where it is.

Any roaming in your area? At that time I don't worry about using any roaming since if I do go over then it will easily be waived if you get a letter. At least your site was back in the same day. There was a site that is 3g/4g accepted that went down on the 3g side for several days. The downside to it was it serves a huge population of prepaid customers that do not have roaming. The way most sites are designed here there are none to pick up the slack when one goes down.

She's on Boost, and therefore, no roaming. :( For me, I roam on Verizon.

Update on Pahrump. I also have a friend on Sprint and she had roaming yesterday, and her mom couldn't call her, it kept going to voicemail. Something definitely happened yesterday, and as soon as I have pictures, I will know for sure if Network Vision has come to Pahrump!

If its a really good signal, then it's possible the tower at Trop and the 515, the boulder and Nellis tower, or the boulder tower just south of Trop. I don't remember if any of them are 4g accepted yet or not.

Just curious but have anyone noticed the places where you had LTE now no longer broadcasting them? Here in NYC, we have many sites that had LTE in an area that was initially set up to cover a large area than reconfigured to target a smaller area. This makes the Sensorly maps no reliable.

Maybe they where testing areas you may have to wait for official lunch

Are the serving cells the same?

Does anyone live or able to get into the Rhodes Ranch Subdivision off Durango just north of Windmill Ln? The Sprint site in there by Bisbane Pl received it's permit on July 2nd. Work will start within 2 months.

Got 2 Galaxy S 4's this week with the Sprint special, great deal BTW. Was at the IN-N-Out on Trop & Tee Pee and got a good 4g signal from the tower at Trop & Ft Apache/215. Might go to the Arby's that's right there and see what signal is like. I live less than a mile from the IN-N-Out and only get 3G must be a weak test signal.

It appears that work in Vegas has slowed to a crawl since the summer started. I can't blame the workers since it's so hot out there.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Was in Red Hook again and I swear there are more Link5G sites as there are Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T small cells combined in the entire neighborhood. It seemed like every other street I turned down had one installed. Hopefully carriers will start hopping on them soon. Seems like a lot of effort to go through for no one to use them.  — — — — — T-Mobile converted the Sprint site on top of NYU Langone Brooklyn in Sunset Park. I first mapped one sector of it back in November 2023 but I thought it was a small cell so I never pinned it but I ran into another sector today which caught me off guard. I'm unable to find a permit for the conversion so it's definitely a surprise. There's another T-Mobile site 1 block away that T-Mobile initially installed back in 2019 so I'm kinda surprised they're keeping both considering the Sprint conversion is on a much taller building and could potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area.  — — — — — The old permit expired for this site without any work being done but a new permit was just approved a few days ago for a T-Mobile site at this address. Description mentions 3 antennas with 2 RRUs per sector. My guess is they're doing something similar to what they did at 360 Furman St in Brooklyn where they broadcast Band 2/66 and n25/41 from one antenna. It's a bit of a downgrade considering the site it's replacing was a full build with Ericsson 6449s.

      Came across another Crown Castle Solutions multi-tenant oDAS node in Brooklyn. Located at 40.7002286, -73.9612666. Nothing on T-Mobile or AT&T so I'm assuming these are all Verizon nodes that Crown Castle is anticipating another carrier will hop on down the line.
