Sprint LTE August 2012 Schedule Maps


Recommended Posts

True, the liberal media probably do like and use Sprint, especially as unlimited data is socialism.

I would think that limiting your Data is socialism. "The Man" telling you how much you need.

do you know if any of the live sites are near the Airport? and I didn't know there were so few protected sites for the Indy metro. hmmm.

 

There is a protection site by Lafayette square mall at 38th and Lafayette, 96th and keystone by the Castleton Mall and then one downtown. That's it..... www.clear.com/coverage

Man I live right smack in the middle of Boston ma and Providence, Ri. I am a cluster of red on that northeast corner map. I am on my third 4g phone and I never have had 4g service. WiMax never made it to me. I hope things get done fairly soon.

I was trying to open up the link to the interactive version of the app and it asks me for a forum password. Is that different than the password I use to log into the site? It says that password is incorrect even though I am already logged in successfully.

You need to be a sponsor to access the interactive maps, any donation will give you 6months of sponsor status

Ok so it's 11 days after Robert/S4GRU Admin posted this thread with the tantalizing info Baltimore would see its LTE towers turned on in "a week or so". I'm not seeing any improvement/change yet.

 

Does the interactive map tell you what towers have been turned on? If anything 3G has gotten worse in MD this last year. I used to draw around 700-900kbps, but now I average in the 200-300kbps range (if I'm lucky). My T-Mo play phone is running rings around Sprint. (1.2mbps at the beach vs. Sprint's pathetic 100-200kbps.) It's downright embarrassing.

Baltimore has not even been launched by Sprint yet. During the investors conference call they announced that Baltimore would be launched by the end of August http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/entry-313-coverage-of-the-q2-12-sprint-nextel-corp-earnings-conference-call/ Any sites that are complete for LTE would be blocked until launch.

 

Also, just because a market is launched, doesn't mean every tower is complete or that you will see full coverage. Your market is underway and it will get better every day until it is complete. Everyone here is fully aware that Sprint's legacy network is overwhelmed and providing slow speeds.

Well I drove by one of the new Network vision towers at the edge of Maryland, just north of Manchester, MD and I consistently got between 2 - 2.3 mbps and Pings between 87 and 94ms.

 

I can't wait for that to go nationwide. Sprint's network is going to be awesome!!!

Any S4GRU member who complains like a diva about Network Vision and/or LTE availability needs to be met each time with this video clip.

"Happiness with their LTE is what counts with children. Happiness and harmony"

 

Are you suggesting something about the maturity of some of our members?

That's good to hear. I guess I got a little too optimistic with the note on the first post of this thread. It sounded like we were going to start seeing some movement in the Baltimore zone soon but then no one reported anything on the forum, unlike other markets. (I've been checking every other day for reports.)

 

There's a tower a mile from my house which is scheduled to be a new one. There are two at our family beach place (one overdue and one new). The storms we had end of June did a lot of damage at home so I expected a delay.

 

3G speeds have gotten poorer this year for me, but I didn't really care since I'm mostly on WiFi. Only hurts when I compare it to the T-Mobile phone I got to play with this summer. I know once Sprint finishes it's network build, it promises to be good. I've been a Sprint customer more-or-less for a decade so I've mostly been happy with what I've gotten.

Jacksonville market has begun deployment. They just are not scheduled to have any sites go live with LTE in August. I believe its early September. However, maybe they will get a little ahead of schedule? They are also actively deploying in the SW Florida market too.

 

Over the next few months, all of Florida is going to start lighting up like a Christmas tree (except the Panhandle). It will be an exciting place.

Thanks for this, I know the maps also include the Gainesville area, so am I assuming correctly that Gainesville will also be coming online along with the Jax area? Appreciate any info about the smaller market!

There will be sites completed in the Gainesville area too. First one or two, then every month an little more and an little more until the whole market is complete.
