Here is some speed tests driving through Avalon. Not once did I switch from 4g to 3g there was 4g through all of Avalon.post-9212-0-80451600-1358019298_thumb.png

 

I am so impressed. I can't wait for this coverage to start moving west. I live only about 3 miles from all of this coverage.

Thanks to whoever is running around mapping with Sensorly. The map has just blown up along south Alafaya. Could you please map a little ways down Curry Ford? :D

 

Same goes for anybody who can use Sensorly along 408 and Colonial Dr. too lol

I didn't get anything down curryford. I live cypress springs area and went down curry ford to alafaya and no 4g yet. So close but not yet. The tower I saw in Avalon is incredibly huge so that tower has some long range coverage I'm guessing that's why its out in bithlo and alafaya and lake Underhill.

Something I noticed when I was using the Open Signal app a little while ago, the two towers near my neighborhood are registering as having active Sprint LTE, yet there is no coverage anywhere except within the immediate area of the tower so I'm under the assumption they aren't broadcasting yet.

This too has happened to me over in Lake Mary, a couple of my towers are registering as LTE, but I am not yet getting it, hopefully they are just doing a couple of small things, then it will be switched on! I have been waiting for it to be by me, I drive to Oviedo to test the speeds and can not WAIT for it to be near me, its going to be FANTASTIC

Oviedo seems to be getting a LOT of love according to sensorly (man, i wish i lived out that way) I REALLY hope it starts heading west soon..when I pull up sensorly, I am like 2 miles away from the closest reported sighting. Since LTE has actually started coming to the area, I have changed my phone from CDMA to LTE/CDMA do I need to toggle Airplane mode? Or when it comes my way, will it auto switch. When I was trying it over in Oviedo, I was toggling, Airplane Mode because according to Sensorly I was SUPPOSE to be getting it, but wasn't at times, then started toggling, and had no problems. Anyone else have this problem?

I really do wonder why the actual city of Orlando is not getting it before outlaying cities, you would imagine that it would be one of the first markets to get it, but I guess they have their reasons.

 

Most likely it permitting issues with the city or it could be backhaul.

That is a good point, I could see it being city permits. It could also be backhaul, but you would think Sprint would want to get it to the main city of the market, before it gets other smaller cities, but that is just me. I just hope that the coverage really starts to grow more and more soon.

There used to be a place where you could see percentage done of each area' date=' and is respective launch date.. I have been searching for it, but I can't find it, anyone happen to know WHERE it is?[/quote']

Open Signal is not a good app for finding sites. It is not accurate. It is not finding Sprint LTE sites in your area at all. I'd stop using that app for LTE. In its current form it will just give you meaningless info that will confuse and frustrate you.

That was me!

 

I also did some speed test and peaked at 21mbps down

 

You sir, are the bomb! I'm gonna run some speed tests myself later this week. Thanks so much for that. I live just a little bit west of the end of the coverage you found on Colonial. I'll check it out.

    • Your referring to the $25.00 a month Infinite Unlimited plan?  I don't see any other plans on there even cheaper than that on their website.  I was looking at the Motorola 2023 Edge fwiw as well for $10.00 a month. 
    • 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.
