Was about 4 miles north of there at Kirkman & Valencia West Campus pulling 7 down / 3 up pretty consistently... that was 4 weeks ago though.

That's the tower near LB McLeod I believe, and I was getting pretty good speeds out of it as well....

I feel like I hit the Jackpot... Lol.... I have a high priority ticket open with Sprint Exec care and they forwarded my ticket to the local Ericsson tech. He called me directly. He was so impressed

This has nothing to do with what you pay for. The deployment is nowhere near done in Orlando. The speeds are because half the towers in the city have been upgraded. So 100,000 LTE users are being c

I got a 8.21 Mbps / 1.25 Mpbs driving on 417 near UCF and my phone is a Galaxy S2, which only has 4g WiMax. I know the LTE crowd doesn't care because that's not where the new roll-out is, but that's the highest I've seen with my S2...yea! Someone give me a high five even if you are totally disinterested.

Alright latest update in a while. After crossing the bridge over 417 northbound on Econlockhatchee Trail north of Colonial, I had 4-5 bars on LTE until I got to University and fell back to 3G. I have no idea what tower I was connected to but that's definitely a first for that area of UCF.

It is not acceptable to use our forums to inquire from our members which carrier you should switch to from Sprint. I mean, c'mon.

I might be the exception because I hate Sprint. Yet I'm here for some unexplained reasons. lol I'm the guy who buys $500 phones just to get 2G speeds and then gets laughed at by co workers. Robert, please tell me I'm going to be the one who gets the last laugh?

I thought it would be acceptable to find out the latest LTE status in North Orlando? Especially since I don't have an LTE phone yet to test.

 

I'm about to make a decision so thought this would be the appropriate place to ask how Sprint now compares in the Orlando market....

Don't think so lol, since all my posts were deleted?

 

By the way I was on Extended all along Lake Mary Blvd east of I4 up until 46A. I also dropped 4 calls along 46 to 95 this morning.

Oh, I'm not joking. The posts were hidden. We are in a Sprint forum. If you want to find out specific info about other carriers and which one is best for your new iPhone, go to their forums. If you have specific questions about Sprint Network Vision in the Orlando market, we will do our best to answer them.

Let me reword my question then. Has any one seen LTE north of 434 (up until 417) recently and if so how were the speeds? Sensorly shows a few LTE spots along 17-92 and Lake Emma road, but are these still up and running? 

 

Sensorly also shows a constant LTE signal along I4 (from 528 to 417).. is this realistic?

 

Also, how would you describe your LTE experience throughout all of Orlando, if you had to rate it on a scale from 1-10, with a 10 having LTE every where you travel.

1. Can't answer don't go over there that much

2. I don't have LTE hardly anywhere on I4 south of 408, at least I didn't this weekend when I went to downtown Disney.

3. A scale of 1/10, I would say currently in my vicinity.... 3 .. But it's better than the 0 I had before

i spent almost 2 weeks in Florida from 8/14-8/25 in the Disney area and a few days outside..Caribe Royal Hotel area and the service was great, i had LTE in almost all the spots i was in.  Some of the 3G i was hitting was legacy speeds so prob not upgraded.  But overall it was very reliable and consistent.  I had one spot down in Kissimme in the area of the Osceola REgional Hospital on Rose and Grove, that whole area had LTE but no internet connectivity so i guess still in the process of upgrading. By the time we got back home in the central new jersey market LTE had lit up all over the place.

Good day all.

 

While at the AMC theater at Universal Studios on Monday I was SHOCKED to see my phone actually get the 4G icon INSIDE theater 18. Granted; this room has an outside facing wall and is at the TOP of the 2nd floor. But I was still shocked nonetheless.

 

The towers near by have been showing "in progress" for well over 4 months but is still nice to see inside a heavily walled room.

Pretty much every single person I see on a weekly basis laughs at me because of my obsession with LTE. I say to my brother, oh "Sh*$" I have LTE. And while he laughs, I quietly and secretly get a speed test in. Normally this occurs when I am driving so I try and get one before I am out of range. Its so annoying that Valencia West is literally so close to LTE. I was at the subway down there the other day and had excellent LTE. But then I drive .5 miles back to school and its a dead zone in my class  :angry:

You know, when I first read "I was at the subway", I was like "WTF? Orlando doesn't have transportation like that!" Then I realized what you meant :-)

      T-Mobile to acquire UScellular

      By iansltx · Posted

      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.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By iansltx · Posted

      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.

      Official Tmobile-Sprint merger discussion thread

      By iansltx · Posted

      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?
