Had sensorly running on my route back from Casselberry to lake Mary via 1792 & Longwood/Lake Mary, lake Mary Blvd....got a few points for 4G but don't know where exactly yet. I drive a contracted postal truck throughout some of cfl so when I am driving I usually keep sensorly app running mapping my trips...hopefully the map well update soon

Darn, I was hoping you actually meant on LM Blvd. I picked up a signal for about 2 minutes near the I-4 end of it about a week ago, but has been dead since then. Was hoping it was getting turned back on

This weekend I have free, so I'm going to go driving around all of Auburndale looking to see if anything has started here yet. I'll also do parts of Lakeland and Winter Haven in hopes that I can find LTE coverage near me.

 

 

The only thing is I gotta learn how to do this first, lol.

Alright guys check out this news report. Sprint has a new strategy to speed up the LTE rollout process. Looks like we'll be seeing LTE in our homes a lot sooner than we expected.

Umm guys...it looks like T-Mobile might surpass Sprint in LTE coverage... Sprint says they lowered their goal to cover 200 million people by the end of the year. :/

T-Mobile LTE is just a simple overlay of their existing HSPA+ network. It should be very fast to install. But they are only adding LTE to their existing 4G footprint.

 

Don't get me wrong, it will perform admirably. And I'm happy for Tmo. But let's see Tmo add LTE to their EDGE network, and we can talk.

Their dismal coverage is a nail in the coffin of an otherwise great network. Hence, why I have Sprint!

When you're running Sensorly and NOT getting coverage, you'd think it should update that on the map accordingly. So basically Sensorly would be a reading of what the latest coverage was when it was last recorded in that area. Instead of if coverage was ever in that area. Even further, I'd be nice if you could toggle to see both.

I agree with this. I think that would be fantastic. Like "Up to Date Map" and "Whats been Spotted" map

Over in the Sponsor section, I have posted about two LTE sites that were accepted yesterday in the Orlando market. Sponsors can check out more details and the maps here: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/588-network-vision-site-map-florida-markets/page__view__findpost__p__103555

Is it the $100 donation to be able to see that info, or is it any kind of donation?

It is in the Sponsor section. Any donation amount makes you a Sponsor. The Premier Sponsor is yet another level that can be obtained by reaching a total of $100 or more and gives you access to even more content beyond that.

Ahh, I have read the two, but was always confused by it. This clarifies it better. Thanks

Well sensorly is running still and I picked up sum LTE on 46 & 415 in front of the racetrack that's there just eat of the airport...sorry that I'm still not too familiar with cfl as of yet. Been here since May of 12 and all I do is work and home

When did you pick it up? That was in Sanford Correct cause I live two minutes away and I can go check it out.

Let me know what you find, the towers in our are hopefully are coming on soon. If the tower there is live, I should be able to pick up LTE here in Lake Mary as well!

I went to that race trac on 415 yesterday and got nothing. I even did a signal reset. But Sprint has been the the Lake Mary/Sanford area. My 3G speed is a little better. I've been getting .4-.6 mbps Have seen notice better speeds?

    • A heavy n41 overlay as an acquisition condition would be a win for customers, and eventually a win for T-Mobile as that might be enough to preclude VZW/AT&T adding C-Band for FWA due to spreading the market too thinly (which means T-Mobile would just have local WISPs/wireline ISPs as competition). USCC spacing (which is likely for contiguous 700 MHz LTE coverage in rural areas) isn't going to be enough for contiguous n41 anyway, and I doubt they'll densify enough to get there.
    • Boost Infinite with a rainbow SIM (you can get it SIM-only) is the cheapest way, at $25/mo, to my knowledge; the cheaper Boost Mobile plans don't run on Dish native. Check Phonescoop for n70 support on a given phone; the Moto G 5G from last year may be the cheapest unlocked phone with n70 though data speeds aren't as good as something with an X70 or better modem.
    • Continuing the USCC discussion, if T-Mobile does a full equipment swap at all of USCC's sites, which they probably will for vendor consistency, and if they include 2.5 on all of those sites, which they probably will as they definitely have economies of scale on the base stations, that'll represent a massive capacity increase in those areas over what USCC had, and maybe a coverage increase since n71 will get deployed everywhere and B71 will get deployed any time T-Mobile has at least 25x25, and maybe where they have 20x20. Assuming this deal goes through (I'm betting it does), I figure I'll see contiguous coverage in the area of southern IL where I was attempting to roam on USCC the last time I was there, though it might be late next year before that switchover happens.
    • Forgot to post this, but a few weeks ago I got to visit these small cells myself! They're spread around Grant park and the surrounding areas, but unfortunately none of the mmwave cells made it outside of the parks along the lake into the rest of downtown. I did spot some n41 small cells around downtown, but they seemed to be older deployments limited to 100mhz and performed poorly.    
    • What is the cheapest way to try Dish's wireless network?  Over the past year I've seen them add their equipment to just about every cell site here, I'm assuming just go through Boost's website?  What phones are Dish native?
