Network Vision/LTE - Riverside/San Bernardino Market (Inland Empire)

Recommended Posts

I have been connected to the evdo a network since I got my phone. Then a few days ago my phone switched to eHRPD for a few hours and it switched back to evdo a and has been ever since. What does this mean?

 

The Galaxy Nexus has a very hard time maintaining a connection to eHRPD. I haven't figured out why, but the only thing I think it could be is the weak VIA radio for 1x/EVDO. Since the phone can't maintain eHRPD well, it just means that when you drop from LTE down to 3G data, it will have a delay before data starts back up.

I wouldn't mind that as long as I get lte :)

Been hanging around Big Bear Lake this weekend. No NV love up here. I've been bouncing between the unoffciail 4.2.1 AOSP ROM and 4.1.1 Touchwiz based Hyperdrive. Best speeds my phone has received are .3 down, .15 up.

 

Can't wait to get back to the LA basin.

Hoping for Robert to give me a great answer to this..

 

Since were at 9% now when do you think LTE will start lighting up?

I still think we're at least 45 days away.

It would be great if it's sooner. That's just my guess.

Seems like all the work is getting complete except the tower off of sedco heights in lake elsinore. A piece of new hardware seems to get added every week.

Robert can you confirm perris will have 4G? Do u know any cross streets for the towers in this area?

Sprint is upgrading the entire network, if you have a good 3G signal, then you will have a 4G signal by the time upgrades are complete. We have maps of all Sprint towers in the country in our sponsors section, as well as a map tracking the progress of tower upgrades.

 

If you aren't able to become a sponsor at this time, network.sprint.com does show the locations of some towers, but not all.

Yes, Perris will get Sprint LTE. Preliminary work is under way there now. We show maps of all the Sprint sites in Perris, and nationwide in our Sponsor section.

Because Redlands isn't one of the major cities does that mean it will get lte later than when the bigger cites in Riverside/ San Bernardino get lte?

 

The whole market will be deployed all over. They will start with the first sites that are ready, no matter where they are. Redlands will likely start going live with the other communities in the market. It will be more of a shotgun approach.

You should be running the Sensorly app so it get's reported because right now Sensorly is showing nothing for Riverside area.

 

Not a single purple dot on the map for the San Bernardino/Inland Empire area.

Ok, I misread your post. I thought you were saying your seeing the Network Vision on your phone, not on the towers themselves. My Bad. :)

Any 4G news and thank you Robert.

Alcatel Lucent starts deploying markets with 3G first and then starts bringing online LTE over the same sites a few months later. Your market should be starting up LTE soon, since San Diego is starting to go live now. I'm guessing in the next week or two.

    • T-Mobile has saved its 28Mhz mmWave licenses by using the point to point method to do environment monitoring inside its cabinets. The attachment below shows the antennas used: https://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/ApplicationSearch/applAdmin.jsp;JSESSIONID_APPSEARCH=LxvbnJuvusmIklPhKy6gVK7f9uwylrZ8LiNf3BqIKlDp3_5GxoBr!300973589!225089709?applID=14787154#   Here are the sites for Franklin county OH: https://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsEntry/attachments/attachmentViewRD.jsp?applType=search&fileKey=66518254&attachmentKey=21989782&attachmentInd=applAttach
    • Yep, there is a label on the side of the box but it doesn't provide any useful info that the city doesn't already provide (Crown Castle Solutions is the franchisee). You can see my graphical interpretation of the city's dataset here.

    • Totally agree.  In my county and surrounding counties, TM did not place n-41 on every site.  When I look at the sites in question, I probably would have not placed it there either.  I can find just a few with n-71 only and in most of those cases if you live there and know the probable usage of the residents, you would not do a full upgrade on those sites.  One site in particular is set up to force feed n-71 through a long tunnel on the Turnpike.  No stopping allowed in the tunnel. No stores, movie theaters, bathrooms, so n41 would be a waste.    n25 is not really needed either, so it is not there.  The tunnel is going through & under a mountain with more black bears than people.  TM was smart.  Get good coverage in the tunnel but do not waste many many thousands of dollars with extra unused spectrum. I also see sites with only n71 & n25.  Again this makes sense to me.  Depending on what county we are talking about, they moved much of their b25 from LTE to nr.  Some counties have more n25 than a neighboring county, but luckily, it is plenty everywhere.   When you are in a very rural area, n41 can run up the bills and then be barely used.  I am NOT finding sites that should have had n41 but TM failed to provide it.  They may have to come back later in a few years and upgrade the site to n41.  However, we just may eventually see the last little piece on Band 25 leave LTE and move to n25. I am not sure if the satellite to phone service is using band 25 G block as LTE or nr. We also can possibly have at least some AWS move from LTE to nr at some point.  Yes, everybody wants n41. it is not justified in some cases.  When I travel, I desire some decent service along the entire route but it does not have to be 1 or 2 gig download.   If I can get 50/5 on a speedtest with data that will flow and not stutter, I am very happy. Yes, they will swap out the USC gear.  TM needs to match their existing network. The USCC equipment did the job for years, but it is time to retire it.
