Network Vision/LTE - Rochester Market (Rochester, New York)

I downloaded signal check pro but i dont see were it says what band....ex.800 1900 spark ..

If it just says LTE then it is band 25. SCP will say LTE 2600 or LTE 800 if it detects a different band.

I got some crazy download and upload speeds in Heneritta today. I was in the Plaza where Staples is.

[johnd515]

That would be spark 2500

Pretty soon, this will be a "normal speed test" instead of crazy.

Ya I know but it's the fastest i have seen it yet. But I live in lima so I still just have 3g. But I'm going to school at mcc so that's a plus I think. 4g at school. And yes there is WiFi but I mean 4g is as fast if not faster.

Spark is getting put up in more towers, give them time.

They didnt have to do as much "rip and replace" they were able to do what AT&T and Vzw did just add cards and (some sites ive seen) a new antenna.

Some, I still have yet to see a lot of GMOs to to LTE yet. 

[johnd515]

I mentioned that last month as well. while I have no intentions of leaving sprint. Its a bit frustrating to see the already active LTE towers keep getting faster with enhancements instead of the them expanding the LTE coverage. I drive to Eastview mall in Victor and can get LTE. I drive 1 mile east and im back to 3g. I have even asked sprint customer service multiple times when there coverage will be expanded. I have yet to get even a window time wise when it will happen where I live. It sucks having people with ATT, Verizon, and now TMobile all be able to pull up video's and download apps while my phone just keeps showing a loading screen.  But the part that will keep me with sprint is the unlimited data I have on 4 phones. I cant give it up.

Its a free country if you want to switch do it...., but Sprint is doing improvements EVERY DAY, hang in there.

[artimis72]

Is sprint still doing any more 3g upgrades. The 3g coverage is quite good now. Just wondering if there finished, or will the 3g improve even more?

It is my possibly incorrect understanding that most/all of the towers that have LTE now are already upgraded.

 

There are probably some towers in the outlying areas that need to be upgraded.  I have noticed with my new phone that has a better LTE antenna that most of the city/main suburbs are mostly covered.

Everything in our market has been done with NV (3G), its been mentioned months and months ago here.

[ddaniels3968]

I have tried calling sprint customer service multiple times about farmington victor area. i ask when lte will be here. All they do is dodge the question.

Because they do not have the answer.

[artimis72]

I figured that. Its just odd that they dont have even a timeframe they can give. No estimated completion date. Nothing. They wont even say if its coming to the area at all.
