Here's the 4g That I stated earlier. It's on the way toward Greenwood in the piedmont area.

 

I'll be downtown this weekend for the bday so I'll map more of the 4g on the drive stadium side

Anyone know if sprint are gonna be working their way towards highway 14 at all?

 

The whole network is being upgraded, if you have a native Sprint signal, you will get LTE. It may take some time though.

 

Any word or LTE around Berea? So far i haven't gotten any, just wondering if anyone else picked up a signal?

 

My best advice to you is support the site with a donation, then you can see exactly where the work is taking place, and which sites have been upgraded to LTE. Once a site is complete, it goes online with LTE. This way you know where to look!

Well I goto school at GTC and it's even on everyday I goto school so, I'm sure they might have been working on it and it's still active.

 

Do you have an IPhone?

 

My buddy has one and that's also the way we goto work and sometimes his iPhone won't pick it up and my s3 will

nope, I have HTC EVO. The worse Sprint device for LTE, but my phones 4g worked fine during work travels. I airplane mode my device many times while I was down that way. You are right they turn off to update something on the site.

I will try to make it down to the LTE site off of 29 and see if I can map that out.

 

Also I believe that there is a tower out new Greenville Memorial area and the baseball stadium. I rode down pendlton street and had some but believe that it goes toward the greenville high and away from dt

I'm willing to say the the site at hamrick will have LTE very soon. That tower has fast evdo speeds so thinking backhaul might be in place.

I live off Cedar Lane rd and i get a ping of 538 ms a download of 0.46mbps and a upload of the same. Also i work at the O'reillys in berea and i get even worse signal in there. i hope they get it up soon. I might go down the motor mile to get another phone, if he comes down on the price :) but the network is improving slowly but surely it is;

in northern tr my evdo speeds doubled. In the city of tr speed are the same no backhaul is in place yet on eather sitesyet. AT&T is installing backhaul I'm guessing. Please correct me if I'm wrong about the backhaul

I dont go by that site beside hamricks much but i might go by there once a week to just see if anything is being done, only problem is i cant stay too long if i drive my car. When its wet me and a few friends will go sliding in hamricks parking lot :) so they might know my car because its the only one with the front splitter and bright fog lights haha ill just go in my truck lol but if i see anything ill let yall know, if i remember correctly the last time i went by there i got almost 1.4 down in the parking lot.

Greenville tech 4g is still on and strong! I go past there every week day.

 

Best thing to do is just map sensorly and check for locations. Also if your riding around town just got the "Map Trip" button and start the mapping and you will find random locations. It is all crowd sourced

I was using Map Trip in the morning and got nothing around Greenville Tech. In the afternoon, there was some in one direction, but nothing in the other. Strange.

    • I think the push for them is adding US Mobile as a MVNO with a priority data plan.  Ultimately, making people more aware of priority would allow them (and other carriers) to differentiate themselves from MVNOs like Consumer Cellular that advertise the same coverage. n77 has dramatically reduced the need for priority service at Verizon where the mere functioning of your phone was in jeopardy a couple of years ago if you had a low priority plan like Red Pocket. Only have heard of problems with T-Mobile in parts of Los Angeles. AT&T fell in between. All had issues at large concerts and festivals, or sporting events if your carrier has no on-site rights. Edit: Dishes native 5g network has different issues: not enough sites, limited bandwidth. Higher priority would help a few. Truth is they can push phones to AT&T or T-Mobile.
    • Tracfone AT&T sims went from QCI 8 to 9 as well a couple years ago. I'm pretty neutral towards AT&T's turbo feature here, the only bad taste left was for those who had unadvertised QCI 7 a couple months ago moved down to 8. In my eyes it would have been a lot better for AT&T to include turbo in those Premium/Elite plans for free to keep them at QCI 7, while also introducing this turbo add on option for any other plans or devices. As it stands now only a handful of plans can add it, and only if you're using a device on a random list of devices AT&T considers to be 5G smartphones.
    • My Red Pocket AT&T GSMA account was dropped to QCI 9 about a year ago.  Most recently 8 for the last few years prior.  Voice remains at 5.
    • https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/05/att-announces-7-monthly-add-on-fee-for-turbo-5g-speeds/ Hopefully we don't ever see T-Mobile do something like this. Based on how I was treated with my Credit Limit, it's definitely not the same company it was before the merger, and it's entirely possible they'd try it.
