ericchen Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 There's another small blip of purple on the Sensorly map near the tower that is active in Kent, WA. Probably the same tower being picked up by someone around the area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S4GRU Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Yeah, it was not on last nights acceptance report for that region. So it is likely the same site. Robert via Samsung Note II via Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert via Samsung Note II via Tapatalk Gotta make sure the country club folk get their LTE. Though...if that's what they're trying to do, they really need to shift their focus north to Bellevue/Kirkland/Redmond.

Bob Newhart Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 I noticed in Federal Way I don't see any eHRPD mentions in the status anymore, just EVDO/RTT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shad_Stang Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I did a qucik LTE discovery run around the areas on sensorly. I only found a 4G signal where it showed it strong on the maps, I couldn't authenticate the other spots around that area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgass Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I see the LTE signal of a similar strength of -103 dBm. Does that mean there is a signal there, just not strong enough to use over EVDO? LTE signal is now stronger than the eHRPD at my house, but it still won't connect Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chadn2011 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Very good 3G in Silverdale. First time I breached 2.35. Going to Seattle today in hopes of seeing LTE. Happy Chinese New Year everyone!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiWavelength Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 LTE signal is now stronger than the eHRPD at my house, but it still won't connect Possibly stronger, but not necessarily. Regardless, your Ec/Io and RSRQ readings are not very good. Signal strength matters little if signal quality is poor. AJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chadn2011 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 COME ON SPRINT!!! San Francisco, LA, Portland, and San Diego all have LTE. I had btwn 800 to 1.5 mbps in Seattle Chinatown today. Ok for browsing FB or internet. But Seattle is the only major Pacific City NOT to have LTE!!! WTF! I hate seeing my friends on AT&T and Verizon bragging about 4G on their phones. Still I live in Silverdale and I DARE hope to get 4G before Seattle. That would be awesome. Better do it quick, or ill jump ship!! Plus seeing stupid Verizon advertise about 4G in Silverdale at the Seattle seaport. THANKS FOR POINTING OUT THE OBVIOUS!!! Please hurry up guys. We need 4G in Seattle!

First, the above is a rant, and S4GRU does not permit rants. See the rules: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/1197-s4gru-posting-guidelines-aka-the-rulez/ Second, S4GRU is not affiliated with Sprint. Complaining to us does nothing. We cannot speed up or slow down Network Vision deployment. We can only report progress as it is anticipated and as it actually occurs. Third, take any group of cities and one will always be the last to get something. In the case of Sprint LTE and the West Coast cities you name, Seattle may very well be the last. That is just how the world works sometimes, so get used to it. AJ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Newhart Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I was in incorporated Kent this weekend. That 4g signal must be that new tower placed there last year. Did a speed test, max down was 2.4, pings in the hundreds. The 3g to 4g to 3g signal hand off wasn't transparent, the data connection broke, the 3g was evdo. So quite a way to go yet.

S4GRU Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 The 2nd West Washington site was accepted yesterday. It's off SR 520 in Redmond, next to the Microsoft campus. Surprise, surprise. Looking for someone on the Eastside to confirm whether it is active now. Memories. I built a hotel not far from this location. The Hyatt House off Redmond Way. Redmond was a great place to spend a few years. Robert via Nexus 7 with Tapatalk HD 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
