What ever happened to ISN?


Mondays In Flames

Recommended Posts

So the other day I was going to a couple of websites and I went to ISN (Inside Sprint Now) but I remembered that Sprint had the site brought down. What happened? There really hasn't been any updates from ISN since the whole moving his stuff offshore or something?

 

Just Curious :)

I remember seeing somewhere on these forums a link to documents showing that Sprint was asking the court to subpoena some websites to hand over the details of who the person was. Quick google search found this:

My guess would be he's laying low trying not to be found out. Haven't seen any updates on the Twitter feed or anywhere else in a while, but it's been a couple weeks since I looked.

I loved this dude during the whole EVO LTE embargo, and he was better when the OG EVO came out. I know Sprint hates stuff like this but to me he was the only thing that kept me from cancelling my order for the LTE. Companies at some point are going to learn that there is a very large segment of customers that love phones and anything to do with them. We are not the majority but large enough. There is nothing wrong to give information AND saying this is the best info we have right now. Hell if I were Sprint I would be sending tweets stating what cities are having LTE sites installed, heck maybe a webcam. A reality type of show on line possiblly. It's not just Sprint of course and they are better than most but I think some business miss a real opportunity to interact with customers. Facebook and Twitter are fine but stupid updates and wallposts don't cut it in most cases. Tweet something significant like "Guess what Tampa we are in town..LTE coming soon" that would be cool but companies don't want that. Too busy trying not to be a dumb pipe I guess

ISN got in trouble when he posted some internal webcasts with Alcatel Lucent

S4GRU is still around because of you.  Being a member driven and supported site, we thrive as others fall.  We will still be around as long as you guys (and a few gals) are still here.

    • Was in Red Hook again and I swear there are more Link5G sites as there are Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T small cells combined in the entire neighborhood. It seemed like every other street I turned down had one installed. Hopefully carriers will start hopping on them soon. Seems like a lot of effort to go through for no one to use them.  — — — — — T-Mobile converted the Sprint site on top of NYU Langone Brooklyn in Sunset Park. I first mapped one sector of it back in November 2023 but I thought it was a small cell so I never pinned it but I ran into another sector today which caught me off guard. I'm unable to find a permit for the conversion so it's definitely a surprise. There's another T-Mobile site 1 block away that T-Mobile initially installed back in 2019 so I'm kinda surprised they're keeping both considering the Sprint conversion is on a much taller building and could potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area.  — — — — — The old permit expired for this site without any work being done but a new permit was just approved a few days ago for a T-Mobile site at this address. Description mentions 3 antennas with 2 RRUs per sector. My guess is they're doing something similar to what they did at 360 Furman St in Brooklyn where they broadcast Band 2/66 and n25/41 from one antenna. It's a bit of a downgrade considering the site it's replacing was a full build with Ericsson 6449s. 
    • Still not seeing any ULS postings for pending T-Mobile UScellular merger in Dane county Wisconsin.
    • Came across another Crown Castle Solutions multi-tenant oDAS node in Brooklyn. Located at 40.7002286, -73.9612666. Nothing on T-Mobile or AT&T so I'm assuming these are all Verizon nodes that Crown Castle is anticipating another carrier will hop on down the line.
    • Same with factory unlocked
    • June security update is out (S22U TMO)
