Something a little fun while we wait for LTE

The NOLA market now has a LTE site that covers an absolute ZERO population area. Proven fact that absolutely no one lives in the covered area. LTE is coming! (if it would ever stop friggin' raining!)

That is an odd little cell tower

I am sure it would have looked better than as stupid palm tree site ;)

 

They could have been creative and used the panels to make a face. Then used the big radomes as boobs to keep it in line with the Big Easy theme. Could have even strung the wires around the neck area ;)

Not it hasn't. 55xxx and 56xxx were just updated a few days ago.

That's funny because I got the PRL when the Puerto Rico Market was announced back in November.25010 that is.

Its not just me? Thank god!

 

I'm not the only one getting randomly dropped down to 1X.

 

LTE must be coming!

 

You too? I don't know what's wrong, in the past, it would have consistent 1-2 bars or 3G, now I can get up to 4 bars of service but will occasionally drop to 1x in the same location

I think 009 had the Puerto Rico stuff in it unless you had mine earlier.

 

Anyways though the 55xxx and 56xxx was delayed.

Except at my house... where they are too lazy to get out of the truck. Watch the truck zoom by the house on the cameras and the guy never stops since he assumes no one is home with no cars there, track the package and it says delivery attempt or whatever. Then I end up having to go an hour round trip to their office on the other side of town. No thanks. As long as they have the same lazy driver that throws packages at your door for my area, I'm not ordering from a company that ships FedEx.

Or are they too scared?

I had something similar, but got a bit of karmic revenge. I was home one day waiting for a delivery (needed memory for a PC I was building for a client). I was refreshing FedEx every half hour when magically it changed to unsuccessful delivery attempt. After a half an hour on the phone with FedEx and 3 managers, I got the address of the distro center. Not a standard office, but the warehouse at the airport and went over there. Happened to run into a poker buddy who worked there, not only did he help me get the package, but I got to question the driver in front of his peers/management. He had no answers as to why it was listed as a delivery attempt when I was home all day and there was no door hanger, etc. I still run into that poker buddy occasionally and that guy still gets harassed around the office :)

Nahh... nothing to be scared of. Good neighborhood. If you saw the guy you'd see why. When I worked for UPS you knew exactly who the lazy ones were by just looking at them ;) (and no I'm not partial to UPS at all...otherwise I would still work there)

    • Been in Japan for the past few days, and I'm about to leave today. Google Fi/Tmus roaming in Japan only had Softbank LTE, so it was pretty slow in busy areas, especially HND (albeit usable in most places). When I got to Osaka, I bought a KDDI native SIM from Aerobile, which is an esim reseller based in Taiwan. With this au/KDDI SIM, I could get NR, and that really improved the network experience here. Even though my phone is missing many ENDC combos here, having b1 + n77 or b3 + n77 or b41 + n78 really helps out with the congested LTE network here. As a bonus, 4cc n257 also works on my s24, and I've reached peaks of 2gbps with it. I'm heading to China today, so hopefully Google Fi supports 5G on whatever carrier they roam on in the mainland. If not, I'll probably be stuck on congested LTE like the first couple of days in Japan.
    • Mike, I just noticed on my S22 Ultra when connected to Verizon n261 SCP is reporting it as n257. I don't see mmwave very often and I didn't notice it at the time I was connected to it. Not sure if it matters but I'm on Visible. 
    • Here's my personal best, as well as the maximum speed I was able to get over 5gbps USB tethering. Millimeter wave is definitely a lot of fun, and I wish AT&T and T-Mobile would deploy a lot more of it.
    • WOW! That's utterly insane.
