COZisBack Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Sorry about the grainy pic, ill get a better one soon. Can anyone tell which on here is Sprint and if so are they doing the update on the Sprint panels? If you look close, there is two guys up there. The bottom rack appears to be Samsung Sprint NV equipment. Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 4 Beta 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nowerlater Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Well went back to the site to take more pice, but my camera was dead. I can confirm though by the boxes on the ground this is NV equiptment. I also seen the new Samsung boxes on the ground. Looks like they are almost done with the panel install as i also seen new coax coming down the tower, just not to the boxes yet. The Samsung boxes are running though so i assume it will be live soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smalltimehack Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 These are in Oak Creek by Milwaukee. I swear I was posting in the Samsung identification thread. I have NO clue how they ended up here. At least you guys know what nv equipment looks like now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tazman Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 They are back working on the tower by HWY 29 and S. 72nd Avenue in Wausau. I talked to the guys and they were install ing parts inside the building. Looked like batteries or power supplies, they said that they were very heavy. At least there is some movement but it is a very slow process, but at least some movement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smalltimehack Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 The Milwaukee market is supposed to be 75% done by October. The rest of Wisconsin should be close to the same plan. That isn't for sure though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's great to hear! At this point, I'll be happy if Green Bay is 25% done by October. Haha!

n9ovreric Posted July 13, 2013 Author Share Posted July 13, 2013 I see they turned on the 3g here signal went up and data speeds on evdo are holding around 2meg down. I was watching the signal change. Must have been adjusting the down tilt. LTE signal went down then back up. In Wausau. sent from my galaxy note 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowmobiler487 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 North end of Sturgeon Bay and hwy 57 through Chilton are lit up with 4G. Both of those have been up for a couple weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowmobiler487 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Anyone around the Oneida or Shawano areas able to say if the new towers are broadcasting LTE yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjs2011 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Looks like a Sensorly is showing a spot near Oneida on the map now. This is great to see. Hopefully this is one of many spots that will start to pop up soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this is one of many spots that will start to pop up soon. I saw that too so that must mean the Oneida tower is broadcasting. There is also a new 3G/4G complete tower in Seymour as of yesterday or today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering how I would go about finding this info for Green Bay and Appleton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tazman Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Guess I need to get a pay pal account so I can become a sponsor. My wife was showing here coworker the LTE at work in downtown Wausau today, they were comparing the speed of Sprints LTE with CellCom's 3g. CellCom always loaded the page faster, my wife has the iPhone5. I told her that Sprint isn't complete with the LTE build out yet and it should get faster.(Hope I am right). My coworker says that Sprints LTE in Stevens Point is very fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowmobiler487 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I can say that the LTE I have seen in Milwaukee and Sheboygan is pretty fast. I also saw extremely fast LTE in Grand Rapids, MI: 19.54 Mbps down and 4.99 Mbps up. I'm hoping we will see these speeds everywhere once NV is complete.

jrwinscher Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I Just mapped that spot on sensorly. I was at the range and I looked at my phone and saw 4g I was excited tell I left the range and a mile down the road it was gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
