Network Vision/LTE - Orlando Market

[lilotimz]

Oh my god finally! Universal is now usable on Sprint! Did they totally swap out the Clear B41 with Nokia equipment or did they add it somewhere else?

99.9% guarantee they just turned off the Clear B41 sectors and let the Nokia equipment take over.

The reason I asked was that the Clear B41 originally in the area was extremely fringe throughout the parks when I was there.

 

If the Nokia equipment is in the same place or marginally closer than the Clear antennas, then what was reported appears to be very impressive performance, comparatively speaking.

That clearwire tower was still active when I was there but it used Nokia 41 most of the time.

[Terrell352]

Ping's good though! LOL

Ping is always good even if the speeds are 0.01 Mbps. I don't know how Sprint does that. They have the best ping times on average of the big 4 in my experience.

On Universal Blvd below the Wawa, just above International Drive in my hotel and my phone is struggling on B26. Keeps dropping to 800x but the data is non existant. 

 

Outside, a fairly strong B41 signal.

Taking my family to Disney this week for the first time. I'm excited to see what a tri-band device can do in the Orlando market! We'll be in Miami, West Palm Beach, Orlando, and Venice on our trip - the sensorly maps had me pretty optimistic about coverage & speeds.

I was there 2 months ago.  The coverage was good but not great.  I was on a iPhone 5S however so your experience may be better than mine.  Disney's free WIFI covers all their hotels and all their parks and was slow at times but nearly always usable.  I usually found Sprint LTE to be a little slower than the Disney WIFI and just auto-connected to Disney WIFI whenever it was available.  Because of the large number of people on WIFI the macro LTE network has enough capacity available to work with those crowds.

 

Recommendation: Bring a external battery and charging cord to the parks.  People use mobile devices a lot when they are there.

Which is sad.  I miss the days of the Wait Times boards and paper-based fastpasses.  It was a much more enjoyable experience than being a slave to our smartphones or tablets just to navigate the park.

Hey, quick question...Anyone ever heard of Glotel, Inc? I'm perusing permits and this company just was issued permits for two sites that haven't been upgraded with 2.5. Also, they don't have the 65 Mhz radios on them yet either....JW if this is Sprint work?

Just spotted a B41 Second carrier live in Port St. Lucie...

Any B41 in New Smyrna Beach? Even though I'm in CA, calling parents weekly being on HD voice every single time on our devices is awesome!

Have there been any 2nd carrier b25 sightings in and around Orlando? Is that even possible? I'm in the airport right now and scp is reporting it

In Orlando sprint is borderline on pcs spectrum holdings with 27.5 mhz of pcs a-f spectrum.

 

In addition your scp is a false positive since 8665 is band 25 pcs g block. The reason why scp is saying second carrier is because the gci ends in 04 since in Samsung markers 03/04/05 denote second carrier.

I wouldn't know. I am one of the few people in this market who actually visits this forum and I don't have an android so I can't really track anything.

I just posted the same rebuttal in the other thread where this was posted. I hadn't come across this thread, yet.
