Hey guys, check this out. This guy tweeted me telling me he caught Sprint LTE over at Disney World in Orlando, and he told me it was very fast! FINALLY hope that we are starting to get LTE in this area now. Check out our conversation here and tell me what you think about the screenshots.

I received the Site ID from a source for an Orlando site that is operating. I have it marked "In Progress" on the NV Sites Complete Map, because it has not been accepted by Sprint. It may show up on the next update as complete.

Hey guys, I also found another sign of 4G LTE in Orlando! Look at the Sensorly Map at the intersection of I-4 and State Road 535. It seems very faint, but Sprint LTE is totally heading our direction!

I just drove through there... wish I had known I would have been looking for it!

Do you guys think that sprint is making the tourist areas top priority in Orlando? I know that I come down from Jacksonville a couple times during the summer and the 3g and WiMAX speeds seems pretty low near the theme parks and international drive.

I don't think so. However, the Disney Resort already has fiber all over the complex. The sites there are probably ready for deployment sooner.

Saw quite a bit of activity being done on the tower near my residence, bunch of guys from CenturyLink were digging and running cabling and equipment to the tower. Don't know if they'd be sub contracted by Ericsson but it was rather interesting.

Backhaul to sites is directly contracted by Sprint and not handled by the OEM's.

    • WOW! That's utterly insane.
    • Its crazy what MM wave is capable of in ideal conditions. I took advantage of some overnight work this week to do some testing on my way home.  https://imgur.com/a/zPNUWVs
    • I haven't had the opportunity to test or map Dish here in NYC but they have tons of sites. I'm fairly certain that at this point they have contiguous coverage across the city, and in some places they likely have better coverage than the incumbents. I still think their weird split branding and lack of advertising is what's killing them, not the network.  I have no idea what they were thinking by launching a sub-brand for people to beta test their network and then another sub-brand specifically for postpaid service, and not even with the guarantee that it uses their network. They need to get rid of everything and start with a clean slate.
    • Drove the entire 101 out on the Olympic Peninsula over the weekend and was able to map a number of TMO sites which weren't previously mapped. Also, did it in my Mach E (electric car). The Tesla Superchargers (especially the one in Forks, WA) made the whole trip SUPER easy.
    • Ok so I signed up for service through Boost Infinite, I ended up getting the Motorola Razr got it today.  They sent the rainbow SIM 2.0 card.  Activation was a breeze, connected to Dish's native network (n70 and n71), took the phone out and... IMPRESSED with their network!  Getting 200 to 300Mbps over n70 and around 50 to 60 on n71 no coverage drops!  Gosh I hope Dish can get it together, VoNR was crystal clear as well.  Paying $25.00 a month for the Infinite plan and $10.00 for the Moto Razr.  Amazing deal... will do more testing this evening when I get more time.  But so far from what I'm seeing Dish needs to stay in the fight. Just rebrand off of damn Boost and call it Dish Wireless...
