Network Vision/LTE - Columbus Market

[rock819]

All though this may not be related to the Columbus towers, the Marion Ohio towers have been getting NV upgrades for a while now. Including the new Samsung cabinets and the new equipment on the towers.

I hope the one by me in Reynoldsburg gets he upgrade soon. They did the fiber for it a while back, but it's one of the weird ones on top of a utility tower. Probably needs a special crew.

I saw a tower like that driving down Lancaster rd the other day, is that what you mean by on top of like a power pole?

That's the one.

Yeah I ran a speed test there and it was like .20 :/ blah

Yeah that's my tower. The fiber was run but no new cabinets or antennas.

Since I think the southwest side of town had some of the first permits pulled, I'd guess there, but memory may not serve me well... :-)

 

If not that, then Marion?

[quicksand jesus]

How would you even know if you had NV 3g in Newark? Or anywhere for that matter?

[Zaevansious]

Definitely not south west.

Yes, how can we tell...better 3g, what?

 

I live in Granville but bordering Newark...excited to go home tonight and check signal around with signal check pro.

 

Granville included or just nerk?

I don't really think you would yet because there is no Ethernet run to it. So the equipment is live at the tower but the extra capacity is not. Would like to see a speed test from newark tho.

Marion is a good guess, they should be up sometime next week along with bellefontaine.

I'll try to run some tests tonight or tomorrow morning at the latest....

Looks like its listed as a Newark cluster but its all in Granville. Newark has another cluster that's more in Newark that is not up yet.

Very nice... I'll drive by 2 Granville towers tonight and run speed tests... I know one tower was marked for fiber but last I checked, wasn't ran yet.

 

Appreciate the heads up...

Well, it's something. Not going to complain about movement right down the road from me. You talking accepted sites?

[imex99]

What exactly is a 3g nv site?

 

I did quick drive by tonight and no difference as of right now... So slow speedtest app won't load and signal check pro won't locate the tower location (which is normal in a few locations).

That's pretty exciting stuff. Hopefully, they'll quickly roll out the rest is Central Ohio. In Reynoldsburg, my service is abysmal at best. Washington Court House, on the other hand, has pretty awesome service ever since they've done the upgrades down there. Hope to see 4G soon. I'll run some speed test and post them when I get to work in the A.M.

Sprint gave Engadget a close tour of their Samsung GMO site. Great pictures of the equipment: http://www.engadget.com/2013/06/12/sprint-testing-lte-cell-sites-in-san-francisco-we-go-hands-on/

To clarify, it is a roof mount full build site. It's not a GMO site.
