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

Probably don't have carrier aggregation. You won't believe how wide spread it is. I can no longer knock At&t data speeds. I have not checked Orlando data speeds on At&t but I will be there in 2 weeks and will check. From what I seen though Verizon was the best. T-Mobile is only a little better than Sprint. I still believe Sprint is probably the worst there just due to how much work they have left to do in Orlando.

Decent speed test over in metro west. Friend who has att just did a speed test and her upload was like 0.8 and download was pretty crappy too ahha

Ive got no complaints. 90% of the places I visit in Orlando have lte. Almost all of them with b41 and speeds average 20-30 on b41. B25 is slowly becoming usable again and b26 optimization should be happening all around.

Have been in Orlando since Thursday for a work meeting at Disney. Had LTE all over in the Yacht Club. No issues at Epcot either. Seemed snappy enough that I never even ran a speed test to check actual speeds.

 

I am at the airport now and it's painful. I pick up LTE every once in a while but am on 3G most of the time. Not a pleasant experience. Just walked over to the window and grabbed some B26....

 

ping: 55ms

D/l: .21mb

U/l: .17mb

 

 

Wtf?

Orlando is one of those cities where no carrier is bad honestly

Take a look at the NV Sites Complete map for more info on the MCO DAS. That will probably explain a few things.

I was at the airport last night (flew back home to Chicago), although the DAS is still 3G it is still very usable. Didn't catch a speed test but everything worked for me just fine (Spotify, YouTube, Facebook, etc)

So...I predicted that b26 will probably get optimized the week that I move. Here we are, the week that I move, and naturally I now have b26 coverage throughout my apartment. It won't get off of it. Granted it's rather slow at around 1.5 mb down...but that is also with 1-2 "bars" of coverage. I noticed the  other day while I was at the gym that they've done some tuning with b25. I was getting 3-4 down with 2 bars, where I would NEVER have b25. Each day gets better and better here. 

 

I really have no complaints anymore, except Universal...which I hardly visit anyways because I go to Disney instead.

Looks like they already have the Orlando 1st half of 2015 report out for Orlando. Wish they would've done this more towards the end when b41 really starts to make a difference...but yet again, Sprint has improvements. 

 

I wonder if their 1st half of 2015 will report that yet again, they didn't find any speeds above 22 mbps...because I find speeds faster than that everywhere I go.

So this is what it's like... To have good service at your home. I've been in b41 all day. My phone calls are crystal clear. Service throughout my new local area. Is just great.

 

Makes me resent living in a black hole for 2 years.

From my third floor I can easily see the tower. It's wonderful, even though I have wifi.

It's nice isn't it? I live across the street from my B41 site.

Nice. Here in San Diego we still have near 100 sites for NV 1.0 to complete. Must be nice to be on B41 all day..

They also have some nice B26 going for them also, from what I've experienced in FL visiting a few areas.

I just want to thank the engineering gods for FINALLY doing something about the tower on top of the EA Sports building here in Maitland. I live next door and it is fantastic to be able to keep phone calls going in the thick concrete hallways now. 3G/Voice 1900 and voice on 800 upgraded so far, two of those this past week. Get 4G and I'll stop camping on a B41 site further away.

Yesterday it was overloaded in most places. I relied on wifi most of the time. Disney could really use some b41 about now thats for sure. 

Sprint is also the slowest at Universal. I checked. Verizon at one point was 70mbps At&t was between 13-25mbps, Tmobile 8-12 due to weak signal and Sprint band 25 was 0.10, band 26 0.60, clearwire band 41 2-5 mbps. Sprint has a long ways to go at these theme parks.

B41 coverage is starting to fill in around Daytona Beach.  It roughly seems to fall within the city limits.  If you go further north to Ormond that area doesn't have B41 coverage (yet.)  I didn't do any speed tests, but I had to approve some video from the road and it was plenty fast.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      Yes! That does keep it from wandering off Dish and most importantly, reconnecting immediately (at least where their is n70). Thanks!

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By Trip · Posted

      I have my Dish phone locked to NR-only.  That keeps it on Dish and only occasionally will it see T-Mobile NR SA for brief periods before going to no service. I also don't have mine band locked beyond that, except that I have some of the unused bands turned off just to try to reduce scan time.  Fortunately, my Dish phone is the one with the MediaTek chipset, so it has NR neighbor cells, and I can usually see n71, n70, n66, and sometimes n29 (market-dependent) through those regardless of which band it's connected to as primary. - Trip

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      By dkyeager · Posted

      Excuse my rookie comments here, but after enabling *#73#, it seems that the rainbow sim V2? requires n70 (I turned it off along with n71 - was hoping to track n66) to be available else it switches to T-Mobile.  So this confirms my suspicion that you need to be close to a site to get on Dish.  Have no idea why they don't just use plmn. To test, I put it into a s21 ultra, rebooted twice, came up on T-Mobile (no n70 on s21).  Tried to manually register on 313340, but it did not connect (tried twice). I am on factory unlocked firmware but used a s22 hack to get *#73# working.  Tried what you were suggesting with a T-Mobile sim partially installed, but that was very unstable with Dish ( I think they had figured that one out).  [edit: and now I see Boost sent me a successful device swap notice which says I can now begin to use my new device.  Sigh.  Will try again later and wait for this message - too impatient.]

      Hopefully this indicates T-Mobile hasn't completely abandoned mmwave and/or small cells? But then again this is the loop, so take that as you will. Hopefully now that most macro activity is done (besides rural colo/builds), they will start working on small cells.
