Network Vision/LTE - Tampa Market

That would be my guess but it could be on the server side too.

 

Just uploaded so we will see. I guess the issue is we are not used to not seeing it within minutes

FYI - I live in Summerfield and if I stand out on the Lanai outside in the back I get 4G, albeit weak. I can get just over 2Mbps on the download and about the same on the upload.

First time poster. Just did my first Sensorly mapping. I live in Wesley Chapel, and drive through Land 'O Lakes daily. I mapped 4G on I75 North of Fletcher all the way up to SR56. I also mapped behind the Dodge Dealer on SR54 W of SR56. I also mapped 4G down County Line Road, then West on Collier Parkway. The 4G dropped of at SR41 @ Collier Pkwy. I then drove N on SR41 and got 4G starting just S of SR 54. I drove back East on SR54 and the 4G was strong. I turned N at the SR54 & SR56 fork. The 4G dropped soon afterwards... I was in Orlando and Cocoa today too, & got 4G there as well. I may post more later...

To quote the Sensorly site: "Maps update at least once a day at all zoom levels."

 

Technically, we both could be correct... However, All of the activity I quoted was from a less than a roughly 1 hour time frame. I mapped, uploaded, comments were made about 4G on I75, and I responded. All on the same afternoon. I mapped the next night, uploaded, and saw the updates right away as well. Same for other mapping trips. So, I am not sure if an update has done something, or the Sensorly servers are slow...

So seeing all the action about some LTE sightings i decided to do some looking also. I stopped to get a drink at the circle K on 66th just south of 102 and had 1 bar of LTE. the dropped off before i could do a test. I drove 19 up to drew street and nothing, i decided to head over to Belcher and at Belcher and Drew success LTE! it was spotty down Belcher but had it at Belcher and nursery, then again Belcher and east bay. For the people that can run sensorly that will give you some locations to go check out. Here are a few screen grabs of my iPhone 5, i was not all that impressed with the speed tests i did.

    • Your referring to the $25.00 a month Infinite Unlimited plan?  I don't see any other plans on there even cheaper than that on their website.  I was looking at the Motorola 2023 Edge fwiw as well for $10.00 a month. 
    • A heavy n41 overlay as an acquisition condition would be a win for customers, and eventually a win for T-Mobile as that might be enough to preclude VZW/AT&T adding C-Band for FWA due to spreading the market too thinly (which means T-Mobile would just have local WISPs/wireline ISPs as competition). USCC spacing (which is likely for contiguous 700 MHz LTE coverage in rural areas) isn't going to be enough for contiguous n41 anyway, and I doubt they'll densify enough to get there.
    • Boost Infinite with a rainbow SIM (you can get it SIM-only) is the cheapest way, at $25/mo, to my knowledge; the cheaper Boost Mobile plans don't run on Dish native. Check Phonescoop for n70 support on a given phone; the Moto G 5G from last year may be the cheapest unlocked phone with n70 though data speeds aren't as good as something with an X70 or better modem.
    • Continuing the USCC discussion, if T-Mobile does a full equipment swap at all of USCC's sites, which they probably will for vendor consistency, and if they include 2.5 on all of those sites, which they probably will as they definitely have economies of scale on the base stations, that'll represent a massive capacity increase in those areas over what USCC had, and maybe a coverage increase since n71 will get deployed everywhere and B71 will get deployed any time T-Mobile has at least 25x25, and maybe where they have 20x20. Assuming this deal goes through (I'm betting it does), I figure I'll see contiguous coverage in the area of southern IL where I was attempting to roam on USCC the last time I was there, though it might be late next year before that switchover happens.
    • Forgot to post this, but a few weeks ago I got to visit these small cells myself! They're spread around Grant park and the surrounding areas, but unfortunately none of the mmwave cells made it outside of the parks along the lake into the rest of downtown. I did spot some n41 small cells around downtown, but they seemed to be older deployments limited to 100mhz and performed poorly.
