Deval Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Yes, that means CDMA is thinned significantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my VS996 using Tapatalk No place on the Sprint network is going all LTE any time soon. There will be least 1 or 2 1xRTT carriers and 1 EVDO carrier until CDMA is shut down, which won't be for a couple of years at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the thinning of CDMA shows me they are increasing capacity in New Jersey which is fantastic.Sent from my VS996 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my VS996 using Tapatalk Yes, thinning is important, getting more or wider LTE carriers on air. But they won't be shutting down CDMA entirely any time soon.

Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk Yup, it seems like it. The more spectrum they devote to LTE, the faster the speeds and the greater the capacity for VoLTE calls. I'm really curious to see how fast VoLTE adoption will be on Sprint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paynefanbro Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 Went to Six Flags Great Adventure and during the drive from NYC I took a different route through a good chunk of rural Central Jersey. Because I was driving I didn't get the chance to do any speed tests but I did notice that I was on 5G for most of the trip. There were a few areas where I dropped to 1 bar of 5G and even 1-2 bars of LTE but I didn't notice any location where I left coverage completely. Additionally it seems that not every site on the NJ Turnpike has 5G just yet as there was one section where both going to Six Flags and coming back to NYC I dropped down to LTE while maintaining a strong signal. At the actual amusement park there is one macro site that all carriers are collocated on and it was completely overloaded yesterday. I had 5G everywhere I went but it was virtually useless with speeds <1Mbps. I didn't see any T-Mobile n41 antennas but there were definitely Sprint n41 antennas on the site. In order to get any usable data, I had to use the Six Flags Guest WiFi. My Verizon line was also on 5G and was slow also super slow but not as slow as T-Mobile. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went to Six Flags again and it is a complete 180 compared to the last time I went. Both T-Mobile and Verizon did some serious upgrades to the on-site monopole. On T-Mobile I got 100MHz n41 everywhere I went with consistent speeds of 350+ Mbps. I even broke 400Mbps in some places. You'd never guess it if you looked at the coverage maps because they haven't been updated to reflect the new coverage just yet. On Verizon there is C-band available however it seems that they're shaping traffic so that most people at the park are on a high capacity LTE setup instead. Cycling airplane mode would throw me onto a strong C-band signal but in about 3 minutes the network would kick me down to LTE as if it's trying to balance the load on their 5G network. C-band speeds were decent at ~200 Mbps and LTE speeds were more than respectable peaking at ~140Mbps. I switched my phone to LTE on T-Mobile and speeds were about equal to Verizon, peaking at ~130Mbps with slightly lower upload speeds. What a difference a year can make! — — — — — My fastest speeds on T-Mobile LTE and 5G: — — — — — My fastest speeds on Verizon's LTE and 5G network: 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
