Anyone run a speed test? I'm further south and am curious what speeds you're seeing on freshly launched towers.

[nophix]

About 8-10mbps.

[smalltimehack]

Nice! Hoping some of that will come my way in Milwaukee!

In Green Bay and I hear you. It's tough seeing some small cities getting it before us. Lol.

 

Oh well. It must mean we're close.

Just mapped Hwy 29 East towards Kewaunee and 42 North Towards Algoma on Sensorly.  It was nice to see that 4G icon light up for the first time. Got between 13-16Mbps down and 3-4Mbps up.

[smalltimehack]

Wow. You put quite a lot of purple on the map. Very nice!

I'm at Carquest DC in north Marshfield and my phone was bouncing in and out of LTE.

[n9ovreric]

I was in marshfield yesterday and never got 4g

Is there really Sprint 3G on US 141 all the way up to Iron Mountain, MI?  I know there is to Marinette now.

 

According to Sensorly, yes.  Sprint, no (just Marinette)

 

I'm going to Crivitz on Sunday so I'll at least see if it goes there!

[nophix]

Might be testing.

 

Anyone else by Point/Marshfield having major connection issues today?

 

Both my S3 and iPhone 5 are having trouble loading maps, and streaming audio is impossible. Never had problems before.

 

Tried YouTube for fun, keeps saying connection error.

[mosoccer]

I was on Hwy 10 from Point to Marshfield yesterday afternoon and was having connection problems as well.  Once I hit the tower that has LTE on the south side of Marshfield I was fine again.

[nophix]

That's what I saw as well. It continues all the way passed Point and just about to Appleton.

[n9ovreric]

Data problems today and choppy voice yesterday.

Sensorly will report roaming signals too.

Okay I know this is wishful thinkin I know... but at home I usaully have anywhrre from -75 dBm to like -85 dBm... that's a pretty damn strong signal... but for the last week I've been jumpin in and out of roamin a lot... confirmed it isn't just my fone because 2 other sprint lines will roam as well and a virgin mobilw phone says no service... sprint is getting my hopes up with announcing lte in comin months for rapids... lol there's already 4g in nekoosa on my way to the casino! Haha

[nophix]

I've been popping in and out of LTE in Rapids for the last couple weeks, especially out on the west side by the industrial park.

[eljayyy91]

I live on west grand and 15th so really close and been droppin calls and texts like a mofo at home with good signal... randomly droppin to roaming when a week ago I was just fine. -.-

 

And haven't noticed any 4g in rapids at all lol.

Its been choppy here in Wausau. For a week now. Garbled voice calls. Hard at times but this is a good thing as work all over the state is in full swing. There are a lot of other markets that haven't even started at all. I believe that after the Nextel shut down is over most of the towers that are 3g complete will get the smr 800 voice and data... Well with in a few weeks after.

Everything you guys are describing is exactly what happened in the Chicago market while they were rolling out he new NV cabinets and LTE hardware. I think it is safe to say that work is being done in your areas. You will have spotty reception and possible dropped calls while they are working on towers. Be patient, this is a good sign!

[peteyz24]

Horrible signal today from the Marinette tower.  Funny thing is it has been 3g accepted for over a month and broadcasting 800 for a few weeks now.  Hope they are working on the LTE.
