First off. You need to read up a bit more before you start complaining about speeds.Sprints 5x5 has a maximum theoretical output of 37.5mbps DL and ~ 14 mbps UL. The theoretical maximum is the absolut

It's the same equip for 800? Why would they be working on 800 when. They haven't finished 1900 yet

 

They are working on both dude, each cell site will have 800mhz RRH and 190mhz RRH, there is nothing wrong with installing the equipment and turning it on remotely later.

I agree it makes sense to do so at the same time, but why once a tower is complete, can't they switch both frequencies on at the same time if its complete?

Because Nextel is still alive and kicking, using the same frequencies. That iDEN network has to be shutdown first.

I just read a article that Nextel is being shut down on June 30th.

 

Yep, and we're still in April. Till then, the 800mhz RRHs will stay software deactivated. Which is fine, the manual labor work is done already.

Is the iPhone 5?

 

Here is a friendly tip. The authors who create content here at S4GRU want to help, but some of us do grow weary of spoon feeding info. So, please, do as much individual research as you can.

 

The question you ask above should be, honestly, something that you already know. If not, the answer is already published in an article on The Wall and posted numerous times in The Forums.

If that is the way that you look at the matter, then I would guess your teachers at school do not expect very much of you -- or you are not getting very much out of your education.

Hey guys, I noticed that the Iden antennas on a high school in my area have been taken down, but all the wiring still seems to be there. I had to leave sprint 2 years ago because my whole neighborhood is a sprint dead zone. I'm in Queens,NYC so its pretty embarrasing that sprint always roams, sometimes even outside when the closest antenna is about 8 blocks away but signal stays on the blvd not the side streets. Any chance of sprint swapping out the equipment to bring coverage to the neighborhood? The zips near me are 11358, 11357 and 11361. Thanks...

      Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

      Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.

      Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.

      Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
