Impulse Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 (edited) Inside Plaza? Hah, you're lucky if you get any kinda signal at all in there... And it's not just Sprint either. Take that complaint up with the Fonalledas! I wouldn't expect any kind of improvement at all in there tbh.

Robert7 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 well inside the mayaguez mallyou can get from 9 to 12 megs at the aguadilla mall about 15meg....lets wait and see they yshould use picocells there no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why AT&T has the same problem in PLA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

egonadrian Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I actually got LTE in Plaza las Americas on the foodcourt and on the 7th floor of the tower, a couple of weeks ago. It was from a distant site tough because I had full bars and I was only getting 1 to 2 mbps. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miguelfp1 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 the bars only show voice strength (1x), not data Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egonadrian Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 the bars only show voice strength (1x), not data Read what I wrote again. I had full bars and was only getting 1 to 2 mbps on LTE. If you have full bars and you are only getting 1 to 2mbps there is no way the voice and data are coming from the same tower, unless they are having backhaul problems.

I've seen some LTE pockets in Roosevelt Ave., probably the same one you saw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gab2012 Posted February 25, 2013 Author Share Posted February 25, 2013 Sprints NV progress has slowed a bit. They need to fill the gap between Guaynabo and San Juan. No upgrades yet, still horrible voice and data services. The good news is that most of the area has at least NV 3g. There are a few completed LTE sites that haven't been turned on yet like the Rio Hondo and Palma's Station sites in Bayamon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More sites accepted this past week in PR/VI (mostly in the Metro) than the past few weeks actually.

Just GMO sites so far confirmed. I'm 90% certain that I saw the first full build site. But it's three hours away from me. Won't be going there any time soon to double check.

Impulse Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Can't even get a tenth of that with my DSL at home right now, heh... Think I'm gonna seriously start looking at cable this week. I've finally moved the Airave back in the chain so I can disconnect it without breaking the connection between router and modem, gonna start shutting it down and doing some LTE tests even if signal strength's terrible for now... Even with a borderline signal it's been good for 2-3Mb outside, just not sure how well it's propagating inside past walls etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

egonadrian Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Relax in my House Villa Carolina Sent from my SPH-L900 I dont know why but I feel this is fake. Sprint LTE theoretically supports 37/18 with full signal. So im not sure how 41 down is possible.
