Chowder Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Today in Carroll, the Columbus Lancaster Road tower, there was a crew running fiber. I asked and that's what he said. :-) I also got over 2 Meg download speed on one test but I couldn't get it again. Not sure if it was legit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newatthis Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 The Roar Rd tower in Groveport is now live with 1900. Didn't have time to grab any info though. Pretty awesone to be in Baltimore yesterday & Groveport today and just happen to notice the icon on my device. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ritamosuno Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 So random question.... I know the current 3G seems to top out around 2.5 mbits. What kind of speeds should we expect on the upgraded 3G? Or would it be roughly the same, but just have larger capacity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What kind of speeds should we expect on the upgraded 3G? Or would it be roughly the same, but just have larger capacity? 2.5 Mbps is still the max speed for 3G, however, as you noted the capacity will be larger for each site. The other advantage is slightly greater coverage due to NV panels. Also, most legacy sites struggle either due to aging equipment or old T1 lines. So, we should receive MUCH more consistent speeds and latency. Latency which of course has a HUGE impact on quality of service. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That area is known for awesome cell service / reception and just HORRIBLE data coverage. I can't wait for LTE in that area. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually surprised I didn't pick up on it when I was down this morning. Must be a weak one. On the weak note, they've bumped some juice into the Basil Western/Diley Rd site, had -42 dBm on that stupid narrow beamwidth antenna they put up there that nicely excludes my neighborhood. When it goes, it's gone. Went from -42 to -87 in one refresh. Feeling like I got Imex Syndrome. lol 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gmotif6 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Music talk.! They release singles before giving us the whole album. BTW ...I drove out to Rohr rd last night. It's dark dangerous and mostly industry. I'm thinking to myself this area doesn't have Digital cable yet so why would Sprint push LTE in it before downtown and my side of town?
