Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

I never said that. I simply asked if anyone was in the Teaneck area and ever experienced LTE from there. It doesn't show up on sensorly, but if u look on the map, it's pretty close by and I thought since its near by and north jersey should of of had some deployment by now. I'm heading out there tomorrow, so I'll let u know.

You think LTE will reach 8-10 miles from 1 tower? I don't think so.

 

Actually! If downtilt is set right, a rural Network Vision site could broadcast up to 10 miles. My house is about 7 miles from the nearest tower, and I get signal from that tower up to 12 miles away, so it is possible. How usable it will be? Probably not much at all.

I doubt it, especially for optimum they don't seBrooklyn,e entire NYC arethe I believe it would be too much of a hassle to put 2 cable companies in one market to take care of the overhaul. I would think since Verizon has a footprint in all of NYC then it would be best to just hire one company to provide the backhaul. Cablevision's network is fiber up to the drop, from the drop on its coax; unless you purchase the pricey 101mbps service.

 

Optimums fiber network is so robust that it is more than likely the go to backhaul provider for Long Island, Brooklyn, Staten Island, the Bronx, Southern Conneticut, and Northeast NJ. Just because they don't offer cable service there doesn't mean they dont have it.

Imagine how far the signal would travel from 1 tower when they deploy LTE 800

Downtilt for rural areas that will get 800 service will be quite good, but I don't see them setting downtilt to zero for 800MHz LTE or 1xA for that much coverage. I would see them matching or just barely adjusting it above PCS.

There was rain on Friday maybe the work wasn't completed !

I am waiting for lte signal in queens but no luck yet. Places I been to last week are flushing, littleneck, bayside, long island city, astoria and also many places on the way but no lte anywhere.

Well, if you don't see any LTE coverage on these maps: http://sensorly.com/map/4G/US/USA/Sprint/lte_310sprint#q=NYC, then it's no surprise you haven't found any yet.

Anyone else experiencing an outage? I normally get solid lte at work and decent lte at home. Starting at about 4 pm today I've lost lte at work and at home. I've updated my profile, PRL, and rebooted. But alas, no dice. It's not even displaying EHRPD. Weird to say the least.

I've been having outages in front of my home for about the last week or so maybe. 5 bars of data but no usable data. On the other end of my home where I assume I'm connected to a different tower I get pretty decent 3G speeds.

 

In other news, my phones prl updated from 55009 to 55010. I doubt any actual change though.

    • 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.
