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


S4GRU

Recommended Posts

Interesting that I actually picked up LTE briefly on Mt. Hope right near Highland Ave. So there is another tower closer to the city that seems to have it.

 

Just noticed this via Sensorly today.. pretty sure thats a brand new spot being reported. Not sure if thats the tower that would service me in the Winton/Monroe area, but there's finally hope!

grabbed this this evening while standing just inside Walmart in Henrietta - server it connected me to was in the mid-west for some reason, and i couldn't change to anything local - closest was Illinois. odd. but still, hell of a lot better than the 0.8mbps i see in other area

I was able to grab this speedtest in the car on 390 today, I thought it was pretty incredible and I'm thoroughly impressed.

 

I also saw a guy up in the tower by where 104 and 590 meet, installing brand new panels. I wish I had gotten a photo for proof but I wasn't quite quick enough. I'm positive it was a Sprint tower though, sponsors can check the map and see which tower I mean, it hasn't been accepted yet.

 

I think network vision is about to hit Rochester like a thunder, let's watch it light up fellas!!

I haven't left the Rochester area this month but have a little LTE data for my HTC One for October.   I'm assuming it was in Henrietta like others above stated.

 

I did experience some LTE speeds in NYC, Boston, and Philly in the past.  Can't wait.

 

I just downloaded SignalCheck Pro and already have sensorly installed.  I will post anything I pick up.  I live in Brighton near 12 corners.

Finally saw 4G in Henrietta at Red Creek/Calkins. It lit up, but disappeared before I could do a speed test. Also, my voice service (not data) has started roaming in my house. Hope that's due to work on the tower at 590/104 mentioned above.

Probably is! There was a guy in a harness installing what looked like new panels to me when I was in that spot. Hopefully they wrap it up soon and you get some LTE! :-D

I had roaming show up in Penfield yesterday... was on Plank Road where I usually get 2 bars or so.  I pulled up Signal Check Pro and it said I was roaming on AT&T.  Has anyone seen that before?  Does not really make sense (GSM vs CDMA).

In some places I have been shown to roam on AT&T as well, I think it's probably a fluke. The few times it's said that to me, it changed carrier again in a few seconds (did not stay on AT&T).

I have one better than that...

I was getting 4g lte out Rt259 (Union St) almost to North Road 20mb down and a little over 2mb up!! It was just south of the Thruway on Rt 259. I didn't want to leave! I also was picking it up at Cracker Barrel in Henrietta. I have a Note2. -Jeff

Best 3G speeds I think I've ever seen on Sprint, lol. Was all over Greece today as well and no LTE yet. This speedtest was taken in Rush.

 

I am curious how all of the sites marked 3G complete don't seem to have new RRU's, do the increased speeds come from just cabinets and backhaul or what?

    • My s24 Ultras auto updated to April 1 security patch over night. Not on wi-fi.  Play system remains at March 1. No notice that update occurred on screen.
    • Got the latest update. On my S24 ultra the NR-ARFCN display remains constant (which is inaccurate according to diags) while n41 and 38 toggle back and forth.  I updated then rebooted before testing. Two sims active. My security patch level updated automatically to April 1 before this update. Diags sent while n38 was displaying.
    • Was able to install the March 1 Android security patch. Seems slightly more accurate with 5g ca band id, but can not swear by it. Updated google play system update through the software information screen to March 1. *#73# still works. Froze updates waiting on SCP update beta to fix n41 showing as n38.
    • Just installed it. Thanks for the info.  71 mb mar 1st date.
    • There's a permit for a new 47 story building at 205 Montague St in Downtown Brooklyn. The problem is that  T-Mobile eNB 48352 is on the building next door and this new building will block two out of 3 sectors of the site. For reference, the new building will be roughly as tall as 16 Court St which is right across the street. This site is the primary site covering Cadman Plaza so I wonder what the plan is. Will they just try to change sector placement, move to a different building, or will this just speed up the conversion of the Sprint site at 25 Monroe Place?
