Finally got to take my trip up to Johnson City from Knoxville. Data speeds and connectivity are quite improved since the last time I took the trip, especially once you hit I-81. Definitely was nice seeing the the 4g icon light up for the first time. Ran sensorly on both an EVO LTE and a Note 2 which made me want to throw my EVO LTE out the car window. Having to airplane mode toggle it for it to pick up LTE is rather frustrating. The Note 2 had no issues picking up and maintaining signals. Once in Johnson City though, both phones pick up and maintain LTE just fine in the main area of town. It's quite nice and I can't wait for it to get to Knoxville.

 

Here's some speeds here in JC. Not some of the spectacular numbers I have seen but still quite good and much better than I'm used to.

DId you have any problems picking up and maintaining a 4G signal on I26? I lose my signal once I past the exit for Gray.

They are the towers of Barad-dûr and Orthanc.   AJ

The Greeneville tower was accepted a couple days ago along with one near Kingsport. Robert had them posted in the completed towers thread.

What has been everyone's experience with 4G inside of a building so far?

 

Today I was a bit surprised to see that I got LTE in my office, which is inside a distribution center warehouse!! I moved my phone away from my window and lost LTE and never got it back......argh. I done a speed test while I had though and got a big whopping 2.1Mbps down and 0.17Mbps up....lol

Only indoor experience I've had with it was in a hotel room. With my evo lte it was slightly frustrating. It would randomly cut out and switch to evdo 3g and never switch back with out an airplane mode toggle but with my note 2 it would hold a signal seemingly indefinitely. So if you have a phone with a good antenna you ought to be alright for the most part.

Well today in my office I've stayed connected all day so far *crossing fingers*, let's see how long this will last with my EVO Lte. As they are not supposed to have that great of reception??? I've had no complaints here myself.

I've had issues with my phone's hand-offs between ehrpd and evdo so it might just be an issue I have.

Well I lost 4G signal yesterday around 130 or 2 and today I haven't been able to pick it up at all inside. Went outside on lunch and finally picked up 4G and RSRP is fluctuating between -90 and -105dBm.

Drove through Corbin, Barbourville, Pineville and Middlesboro, Kentucky today, picking up multiple LTE phantom signals. I was hoping to connect to LTE while in Middlesboro, but as a consulation prize, my 3G speeds were at least 1mpbs in all cities.

Grabbed 4g just off the exit in Ooltewah exit 11 of I75 this morning stopping for breakfast it's showing on Sensorly but I didn't have time to go down any farther to see where it went. Lost it right before I got back on the interstate.

I'm on middlesettlements road in Maryville, kind of between Walmart and Hunt road, and I'm picking up 4G! It's coming and going, and isn't super fast yet, but still, to see this is very exciting.

Well I picked up Lte again today in my office, streamed Pandora no problem, no pauses or anything; was like I was listening to a CD....with advertisements of course. :-P

Picked up LTE again in Maryville, this time on 411 while eating at Pancho's. The crews are doing some work!

A Pancho's reference! Yes. I hear all sorts of ads for that when I go down to Knoxville to visit my cousin.

Try using Sensorly to map it.

Is this a legit app? I've heard quite a few people call it spyware? I've used their website to check out a lot of the coverage though. Love the website but I'm just weary of the app.

So this came out today: http://www.engadget.com/2013/04/11/sprint-leak-has-lte-reaching-los-angeles-april-12/

 

In the image, the header states in bold that the announcement includes the Nashville market... but the list of cities affected aren't the Nashville market at all.

 

Memphis, Greenville, Tullahoma

 

Memphis is it's own market with Greenville and Tullahoma geographically far enough away to not even matter to the Nashville Market.

 

So what does this mean exactly? Maybe it was a typo and LTE will be officially turned on tomorrow for Nashville?

The Nashville market is Nashville and everything in East Tennessee.

      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 coule potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area.

      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.
