Possible work being done in Lafayette, IN?

[TheHulk]

I don't know if it's my phone (SGS3) or if the NV updates are coming into play slightly, but in the evenings my ping is 1000+ and I'm not even touching 0.2 Mbs down. A few weeks ago it was pretty good and nothing to complain about (can't recall the numbers). Anyone else in the area notice this too?

The first Lafayette sites are not scheduled to start work until the end of August. However, maybe they are starting early?

I hope, I don't think it's my phone cuz my old OG EVO was doing the same thing. I'll cross my fingers and think the good thoughts. I'm not against things starting early :-D

Highland is in the Chicago market, where as Lafayette is in the Indy market.

I love how every time a site has issues its assumed to be a NV upgrade instead of a network issue. This is going to do wonders for the perception of Sprints network health!

Must be a NV upgrade, Congratulations! If you drive to the tower fast you might catch the van.

Nex-tech is working on it. Ive already chatted with them a little. That data issue is happening to all the phones on my account.

I believe the Indianapolis market was having major hick-ups this morning. I drove from Lafayette to Indianapolis around 4 am this morning and had no data until I was on the SW side of Indy, around an hour drive and over 60 miles (I was trying to use Waze and it kept saying searching for network, I then verified it was Sprint (and not Waze servers) by trying to load a webpage).

 

I am not getting super hopeful that we were getting upgraded, but I hope I am wrong.

I'm in Bloomington and seeing the same. Its been 500 kbps Max for a while. Now I've been hitting 2 mbps the last couple days off and on. And then super low soon after

Had drastic improvements today (1.2 down with a -95 dBm signal, one bar), I actually stopped and talked with the Sprint people and they said they are tinkering with the towers in the area.

No interruption in Muncie in the past fews weeks. I'll be heading to the north side of Indy if it interests anyone on Friday (it's my birthday ), I'll see how it's fairing there.

I'm in Lafayette and its been rough going the past few days on the network. speeds have improved a lot. Ive gotten 2.2mbps down a few times. mostly its around 1.5mbps down. this is a huge improvement for my area.

Same here. Lafayette is flying now.
