Miami-Dade originally wanted until January 1, 2015, but Sprint is pushing the FCC to mandate reprogramming by 10/1/2014. I don't see it happening.

Hey it could happen. B26 popped up really quick in Orlando and since then it's kinda been on the slow side. Not much optimization going on. Which means they're probably busy installing carrier cards in the rest of the sites in Florida, even though they can not activate them just yet...

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

Here's to hoping! :-) I stand by waiting for the goodness...

Just move to Jax, guys. We have everything you need, including B41/B26. There have even been some 8t8r sightings!

When I get my iPhone in  a few weeks, I will finally be looking for some b41. Im excited!

 

I held out! Didn't get an android device even though the LG G3 tempted me big time. I hope it was worth it.

Isn't it rumored that the next batch of flagship Android devices will support carrier aggregation? You may be waiting for the wrong device... This time next year it's very possible you will be saying "I will finally be looking for some CA" lol.

Orlando is part of the Top Gun initiative and I see the contractors meeting in my office once every few months. It's amazing me how well the market is coming together.

For the first time ever, I had a decent signal for most of the game at Brighthouse Stadium. 44,000+ in attendance so it was a pretty good test. In past years, the signal has been so bad that the phone's battery is almost run down to 0% by the end of the game.

What LTE band(s) were you on? I know the tower next to the stadium has at least B25 and B41.

Had b41 all the way from Alafaya down 408 to Kirkman. I think I lost it only once but it quickly rescanned and got it back again. Then I had b41 all the way to valencia west campus, in which I had b41 on campus. Not good reception inside, but nobody has good reception inside those buildings....

You go to west campus too?

And I can attest that b41 is very good on campus and metrowest in general, though there are a few spots where you'll fall back to 3G but should pick up b41 soon after.

Hello all. While I'm getting great LTE coverage in Port Orange and Daytona; When I'm visiting my mom in New Smyrna Beach my experience is far from great. When I stand outside her house data speeds average 3-6mbps down. When I am in the house, speeds are basically none existent at .02-.09mbps down. This concerns me because my mom is a Sprint customer as well and I would like to know that if she had to rely on the Sprint network that it would be there for her. I was wondering if there's any news on LTE or Spark coming to NSB anytime soon. More specifically the I-95/SR44 area. Also when can the Daytona Beach area expect to see Spark?

This is standing in front of Gringots in Diagon Alley at Universal. Unfortunately I had to tether to my wife's AT&T phone to upload this... Data nonexistent and she has a full signal. Must be a DAS.

      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.

      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?
