Received the new Sprint Plug in Connect USB Modem today. http://shop.sprint.com/mysprint/shop/phone_details.jsp?prodId=dvc6740005prd&deviceSKUId=67400111&flow=AAL&planSKUId=null&tabId=dt_mbc&ptn= This is a nice modem. Everything went smoothly setting it up. I upgraded from the 597e card that is about 4 years old. Signal by my house is ok. On 3g I got 1.57 down and about .5 up. Modem is built pretty good and does not feel to cheap. I will have to see how wimax works when I get to work tomorrow. All in all not a bad modem for the first day I have had it.

Well I used it on wimax at work today. The tower is only about 1000ft from me. Pulled 9-11 down on average and about 2-3 up. I would say thats not to bad on wimax. Now im just waiting on lte to get going in my area.

So glad SW Florida is starting to see progress.

Well after a little over one week of use this little modem is great. No disconnects or any odd things going on with it. Sadly it pulls in better signal than my S3! If anyone is looking at this modem I would say go for it. Plug it in, activate it, set it up to auto connect and that is all there is to it. No smart view to deal with.

      The DAS at LGA Terminal B actually has n41 at 100+20, but if you are deprioritized, good luck on the busy days, as all the bands are congested, even B41 and n41, with data being worse than 128kbps international roaming. It has SA active for n41 as well. The L train tunnel is actually 80+20 for n41, with SA n41 active. Speeds aren't anything compared to Philadelphia's DAS system that has n41 though. The gig+ upgrades are expanding, as eNBs 894588 (Sprint convert site) and 55987 can both pass 1 Gbps now. Clocked nearly 1.3Gbps on eNB 55987 today.

      Yup 80MHz C-band + 40MHz DoD for a total of 120MHz. They should be pretty well setup post-clearance. — — — — — Famous Verizon site on Atlantic referenced in this reddit post got moved to the top of the building next door. — — — — — Also looks like I mapped a T-Mobile oDAS node eNB 347812 in Brooklyn Heights. Streetview shows it as one of the CC nodes with no antenna on top as of May 2022 but this specific eNB was first mapped this month. I didn't notice that I mapped it until I got home but the range on it is significantly greater than the normal "antenna-less" nodes T-Mobile deploys. I'm wondering if it got upgraded to the new 5G oDAS design but I won't be able to check it out until next weekend.

      I didn't know they had access to 80 MHz of c-band that does change some things then once that's online

      While I've been loath to update my Samsung devices past the May 2022 update to keep the Band Selection tool, I note that it looks like Android 14 is going to add Timing Advance for NR to the API.  (Was looking today as I have another Verizon A42 5G now that I'm going to unlock for T-Mobile, and wanted to figure out if I should let it update or not.)  Since I can technically make band changes from *#73#, on the A42 5Gs, I can probably live without the Band Selection tool if a later Android version adds something useful like TA values. I assume SCP will be updated to support that once it becomes publicly available.  The real question is whether or not the phones will support it.  My S21FE and A42 5G devices do on LTE, but I know the S22 and the A32 5G do not support it even on LTE, providing just zero in that field. - Trip
