how do you determine what tower is servicing LTE from the field tech mode on a iphone?

 

Dial *3001#12345#* in the Phone app and press call. Under Serving Cell Info the important things are Physical Cell ID and Cell Identity. Each sector of a site has a separate ID, but from what I can tell, the first 6 digits of the Cell Identity are a tower identifier.

 

You have to do your own detective work to relate a tower identifier to an actually site though.

Hi everyone, Sorry about the slow updates today. Sometimes we have to do a little maintenance and this one took longer than planned. When that happens new data received doesn't get added to the maps

Oh and you Tampa guys are no good. You used to come over and map with us and find our sites. Now you got your own LTE to play with..I'm a Sad Panda

 

Feech... I mapped from Wesley Chapel in N Tampa, all the way to Ft Desoto Park this evening. I was able to stay on 4G for most the way there. Also, I got connected and mapped 4G at the very SW tip of the Ft Desoto Island, including the fishing pier... ;)

I gotta a bit of 4G on dale mabry at Ray Jay. And of corse up in the stadium also.

Well I know there are a couple of sites near the stadium. When we get mapping it will be more apparent. Have to work at 0400 at the airport in the morning, hoping to see some LTE at the airport soon. Will map on my way in.

I'm tempted to say the Starkey site is up..I drove by today. Usually I lose the 4G signal from another active site when I am slightly north of it. Today I held the signal quite a bit further along with some spotty hits on Brian Dairy.

If you were running Sensorly it doesn't appear to be so, but might be worth a revisit to run Sensorly.

Hey if any of you Tampa guys are in the Gandy area there are panels on the tower at the Bayshore and Gandy also up the street some off of Lois it looked like there was panels on that site too but I was in the Walmart Parking lot so it was hard to see. If you spend any time in that area it may be worth checking out.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      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.

      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.
