Ascertion Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Maybe the JAX market is finally getting some optimization love. Sent from my iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk I can definitely say CR210 has been getting some optimization. B26 didn't stretch any further than B25 did nor did it penetrate buildings as well. (My home usually has -99 to -102dBm on B25, on B26 it is the same thing. Outside, both are like -80dBm. Hoping optimization happens. As of now, I lose LTE when I leave my neighborhood. :s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N4NXS Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 LTE outage around Jax this morning? I've had LTE connection issues since the B41 started becoming active. Hopefully they are working on optimizing the towers. I seem to be back to 3G more often than not in areas that were strong LTE for the last week or so.

jamisonshaw125 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I've been on LTE all morning. Mix of B26/B25/B41. Sent from my iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk I've been having issues as well for a while now here in Orlando. LTE isn't out, but its intermittent. I emailed Jerry williams and he said "Thanks Jamison. I will escalate the issue immediately with our network team. Changes were made and we were monitoring to verify improvements. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nexgencpu Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 LTE outage around Jax this morning?There are reports of Clear sites not transmitting any data even with full signal. Doesn't seem that sprint sites of any type are affected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faction Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I noticed the tracking area code for the tower behind my house changed from 9425 to 9525 on B41... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My experience with B25 has gotten much worse on coverage wherever the new B41s are installed. I now have to airplane my phone more times than previous.

Syph3r Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 LTE dropping in and out in OP this morning, had to force 3G to be able to use data. Anyone else experiencing this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syph3r Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 It seems to have stopped, it might have been a single tower having problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascertion Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 So...they're testing B26 here so it's making all Triband devices in the area connect and camp on B26. I decided to disable B26 just for kicks and... B26 ATM is getting like 12mbps down and 6mbps up, which isn't bad but for some reason it's showing my Sprint signal as no bars even at -102dBm and it's driving me insane. Edit: The test was on B25. Hoping to get some B41 action here on CR210. Also going to the Jags game tomorrow and will thoroughly test the network there.

Sent from my LG-LS980 I wonder if they are doing similar things in Orlando. I noticed that b26 has been slacking and b41 has just been a mess. I'm assuming it has to do with 8t8r installations since someone said that they often deactivate clear sites to turn on 8t8r.... I will die if this is the case because it means Orlando is a priority market... Which I wasn't sure if it was or If the demands could even be met because of the equipment constrictions. Either that hat or it's that software bug... Or both. Edit : b25, it wouldn't connect to 26 or 41 even though I know b41 should've been full signal in the same location. Weird it won't let me attach the speed test Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my LG-LS980 Yeh it's tricky for me to figure out what's going on because I have all three, but I'm pretty sure they're tweaking both b41 and 26 here.

Sent from my LG-LS980 Yeah, we have some weird stuff going on in the Jax market. I couldn't receive any calls for about 4 hours yesterday. I didn't realize it until my wife texted me that she was trying to call me. It would ring for awhile until VM picked up. I was on a Clear/Sprint co-located tower during that time. B26 has been a little weird as has band switching in general. Definitely something going on lately.

Ascertion Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 My text messages have been failing all day. I'm receiving them fine but about 50% of them have been failing. I did notice a faint B26 signal in my office building earlier and that wasn't there last week. They're fine tuning but I hope the texting issue gets resolved soon.

S4GRU Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 I would expect B41 8T8R deployments in Nokia areas to be a little painful with a lot of learning curve going on. Also, lots of network side optimization tweaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrell352 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Something is happening to the college tower at college of central Florida here in Ocala. Its the most used site in the city. There is are two LTE sites on the same tower. They already have band 25 and 26. Judging by the amount of trucks and a sign that says caution which they have never done before, it must be something major. It has to be nokia band 41. They have been working for the last 3 days. I will go tomorrow and see what's happening. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrell352 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 On that tower I was talking about around here, unfortunately they were just switching out the old nv Ericsson with the new ones. No band 41 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrell352 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Yep. That's what it looks like. I didn't ask the ericsson workers much because if it wasn't nokia then I really just didn't care. Were they changing out the RRUs? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
