S4GRU Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 If the site is testing, it will not appear as usage on your account. But after acceptance, Sprint network controls are implemented, including billing and tracking. Then that usage will appear.

neophaze Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 LTE in Tacoma!! Got these results while on Ruston Way by the Lobster Shop 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericchen Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 LTE in Tacoma!! Got these results while on Ruston Way by the Lobster Shop Usually it's a good idea to wait until the speedtest is over and then screenshot so you have the upload and download speeds.

JThorson Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I noticed a small blip on sensorly up in Canyon park. Can anyone confirm this? I'll make my way up there this weekend. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuunkychicken Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Mapping more areas near Ruston Way in Tacoma. All I can say is wow... LTE is fast! Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgass Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I noticed a small blip on sensorly up in Canyon park. Can anyone confirm this? I'll make my way up there this weekend.

ericchen Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 LTE rollout is fast! 4G is fast! Everything is fast! It's not fast enough. More LTE in Seattle proper and the Eastside please. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oversight Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 It's nice seeing those blips of purple showing up and starting to spider out. More! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RP88 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 New blip at the SE corner of SeaTac? Seems to far away (given the elevation differences) from the Burien sightings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuunkychicken Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 This is good progress. Seems every day there is a new purple blip on Sensorly! Hopefully it will soon spread like the plague. Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starbarry32 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Earlier today I was out briefly in the Overlake area and just south of the current LTE coverage mapped and didn't pick up any LTE signal, 148th and NE 24th. Oh well, maybe another day I'll get closer to the tower and try out LTE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumbershoot Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Efficient eHRPD routing+under capacity EVDO carrier+new fiber backhaul+under burdened LTE core = screaming 3G ping. That's about as good as it can get on 3G. The airlink cannot support anything much faster than that. In ideal situations, the airlink cannot get faster than 50-55ms. And then add the rest of the travel once it gets beyond the tower. Theoretical best ping on 3G would likely be 55-60ms. And that will be extremely uncommon. So you've got a good thing there! Robert via LG Optimus G using Tapatalk This is the fastest 3G Ive seen, No 4G yet (this was taken on the north end ferry dock on Vashon Island), but these speeds are a big improvement.

cgass Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I went to canyon park yesterday evening and was unable to connect to LTE. Had really poor 3G speed too. About 0.03 down and 0.20 up. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RP88 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Yeah I have been unable to see/connect to any LTE down near JBLM/Dupont, even though it appears on Sensorly. Perhaps they are still testing and the times I go through just happen to be when they have it offline. Sent from my EVO LTE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDXSprintFan Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Wanted to let you guys know that LTE was accepted at a tower in Tacoma, off of Tacoma Ave., in case you didn't see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RP88 Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 (edited) Is that on JBLM near Dupont? (only place that comes up on Bing Maps) In other news, Granite Falls just showed up on Sensorly Edited March 9, 2013 by RP88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drlovety Posted March 9, 2013 Author Share Posted March 9, 2013 Granite Falls, interesting. I may head out there tomorrow. I wonder if these tower workers are pinging sensorly once they lite up a tower. Because I find it hard to believe that someone was just driving up to GF and turned on sensorly.

drlovety Posted March 9, 2013 Author Share Posted March 9, 2013 Checked out the Granite Falls site, it's live! I did some mapping, but I'm a little concerned that the signal couldn't reach the City, which can't be more then a few miles away. So at this site it looks like they are using Comcast as their internet provider. Speeds weren't the best but ping was great, in the 60s. I was more impressed with the 3G speeds (2megs down) than the LTE speeds 6-8megs down). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JThorson Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I noticed this morning that there was another crane at the tower in Lynnwood at 196th. Not sure what they were doing and it was to foggy to take a picture. Hopefully we'll something soon. I also mapped more down 405 and surrounding areas, did what I could. Some adequate speeds 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chadn2011 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 So I experienced 4G for the fitst time in Fife. Then it went back to 3G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
