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 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.

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.

      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

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      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.

      Network Vision/LTE - West Washington Market (Seattle/Puget Sound Region)

      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.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      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...
