He was right about WiMax? So he told you that Clearwire was deploying WiMax Protection Sites around Detroit to just meet FCC substantial service requirements? Because, if he didn't say that, he wasn

You guys should not complain at all some of us still ant even been heard of (Toledo) being only 60-70 miles south of Detroit , also I'm pretty sure that Detroit is being worked on as well. This list pretty much means that they will have launchable amount of service in the next few months. Detroit is going to take some time in order to get to that point then if they didnt have enough towers done to cover Detroit, then people would complain. Sorry if you guys ment it in a non negative way, but it will come soon and it'll be well worth the wait.

saginaw? midland? what about Detroit, Flint? Still great to see announcement.

 

The same amount of work in Midland barely makes a dent in Detroit, however work will be going on in Detroit as well, it's just going to take longer. Once more work has been done, and they think they are a little closer to having a launchable amount of coverage in the bigger cities, they will be added to the list as well.

I'm not complaining, just amused to see the more remote areas being recognized. I agree with your prediction and reasoning as well.

 

Sorry about living in Toledo, OH. My condolences.

Its cool I just want this fourm to keep on the positive side and not rants. I have enough of them on the Facebook page for this site of people from here complaining and moderating it for Rob, which is funny at times with people....and thanks Toledo used to good for biss but I think it went down the toilet.

i think sprint is scared to come to Toledo and have Samsung put subs down here with all the crime lol...I'm kidding of course I just think think with how small our market is doing like 6 towers in Toledo would pretty much cover the city. Guess me and Ryan are rooting for you guys up north scince that's about the closest well get to LTE for the time being.

I'm hoping Ann Arbor gets decent LTE coverage by around September because I'd like to go to university of Michigan next year

 

So if LTE doesnt hit A2 then you won't be going to UofM? :scratch:

I've noticed the purple keeps creeping out farther from Howell. Is that still the same towers and people are just getting readings farther away? Or is it spread to Brighton lol

 

That amount has been the same for a handful of days now. Last I knew was that LTE in Howell was active on only one tower. I wanted to drive around Howell this past weekend but my plans were derailed. I hope to get down there again this upcoming weekend so I can map some more plus check other towers in the area.

The newest press release is great news. Finally some work other than just Howell. Atleast we now have a little more hope for it to be soon in the metro Detroit. It will take time since they cannot just realease it in such a populated area, but I am happy with the progress.

There still is only one tower in Howell with active LTE. Pretty much the boundary you see on Sensorly in Howell along and north of I-96 is what you get at the moment. I don't know what the situation is south of 96. My travels do not take me that way nor it seems other Sensorly users as well.

I sure wish I could do more with Sensorly on my iPhone than just view existing coverage maps... :td: C'mon Apple..

 

Once I was locked to an LTE signal, I held onto it until just past the Grand River exit in Brighton (exit 145.. a good 5.8 miles away as the crow flies). I wish I could have brought it all the way back to A2 with me!

 

 

** I'm hoping if I take the liberty of goading Apple ahead of time, I can squelch any further and/or more severe :P
