Network Vision/LTE - Northern & Southern Connecticut Markets (includes all cities)

[Z06VETTE]

Someone must have caught some system testing, that means it should hopefully be live soon!

Saw a alcatel-lucent truck coming down w.main st went by me at maloneys pub about 3pm today...they are definately in the area and maybe a sign of good things to come

I feel like there's no winning with Sprint. Ever since that LTE site went live, my phone is constantly struggling with a steady connection. It just toggles back n forth heavily between 3G and 4G, sometimes even 3G to 3G (Ehrpd to Evdo). What is Sprint doing activating one tower a city and moving on to the next?

I fly into Bradley Airport tonight and then head to the New Haven area for a few days. Hope the LTE is ready for me.

[JimBob]

Arrived now in North Haven to spend a few days. No LTE.

Nada at Bradley, you will get some blips driving to New Haven, but you won't get too much until you are in New Haven. I don't know how good it is there, but should be some to use. Hopefully.

Looks like something went live near Maple Ave in Hartford, finally a tower in the capital city

[Z06VETTE]

Mapped some new coverage in Suffield Center.

[dstar2002]

Tower at Bradley Airport still hasn't seen work, but picking up 800 from a tower broadcasting it somewhere near Enfield, has been on all day. Anyone else seeing some 800?

After a quick drive around this morning, I was able to confirm the 800 is coming from the LTE accepted tower in Enfield. I might have to go to a stock prl, because this little bit of 800 is painful without more to support it.

I mapped a little of this coverage this morning too. Its definitely active on the site in Suffield. Just not accepted, yet.

Edit, the site is accepted, my mistake.  Great news.  Hopefully they can get some LTE lit up at Bradley soon.  The Suffield and Enfield ones just dont make it.

Any switches have already been flipped. LTE coverage has reached about 40% of the population, so Sprint is officially announcing New Haven as an LTE market. However, this does not mean you can expect complete LTE coverage. Work is not complete, and crews will continue to work until the network is complete.

Look what I see this morning! Are they just testing I assume

Very interesting. It might not shut off, the Enfield one is still singing 800.

 

Are you In the hospital? Or jut near it's wifi? I have to go to the health center tonight for a class, so I'll be watching for some 800.

New Haven is officially live per Sprint this morning!

[Timh]

So is Meriden, Wallingford, Waterbury and more but like he said there not done

[Student]

I caught them 800mhz testing the tower by west farms mall a few months back. I usually roam all the time here, so it's going to be great one 800 goes live

(any idea when there'll be enough to do that?)

Downtown Meriden is still slow as a snail. At least hope is coming.

[Timh]

Yes that is true

[dstar2002]

After a bunch of 800 testing today, sitting on my couch, I got the good old LTE alert from signal check. East Windsor tower near exit 45 on i91 is broadcasting now. Hasn't even gotten it's 3g acceptance yet. Makes sense though because backhaul to the site was already done.

 

Waited for LTE at home for a while. Only thing now is too map it lol

West main st in Meriden finally has LTE thank god

[ach442403]

is the LTE on or did you happen to catch some testing?? i switched over to my iphone 4s on friday because there is only LTE at the mall on the west side, and according to the s4gru map its still a 3g tower, and when i last spoke to a rep LTE wasnt sappose to be anytime just yet but active by the end of the year...will have to go back to my htc one and do some investigating.

[Timh]

The LTE is active for the past 3 days now. I work at stop and shop so I am close to that tower
