Inside a Sprint LTE cell site


Recommended Posts

Quote from comments"Instead, they are showing you a partial deployment which they are doing because true Network Vision was found to be too costly and too disruptive (according to Sprint, customers would experience outages for 3 - 14 days)"

Does this guy have any clue what he is talking about??

That PCWorld article was infinitely better than the Engadget one. Wow.

 

that's because PCWorld read the Engadget article, lol then read S4gru, then wrote the good one with our findings...yup ill stick to that process. :lol:

Except for the fact that they erroneously describe Sprint as the nation's fourth largest carrier, pretty good article by PCWorld.

I was going to make a post about that inaccuracy but I let it slide.  Otherwise it was a good article by PCWorld.

Uh, no, "rage-grows"?  Look at the truncation of that URL.  For my own sanity, no way am I clicking on that link.

    • Mapped two n41 small cell sin Jersey City today. They're the first two to be mapped there in Jersey City as far as I can tell and interestingly they're consecutive gNBs, possibly indicating they were installed around the same time. gNB 1088335 appears to be an upgrade of an older small cell. It looks identical to the T-Mobile n41 small cell I mapped earlier this year in Old Westbury.   I also mapped gNB 1088334 in Newport. This small cell appears to be a new build as I couldn't find any evidence of an older small cell in that area. Unfortunately no pic of it since I didn't even notice that I mapped it until I got home and I can't find it in Streetview.
    • Someone told me a couple years ago, that there were problems getting certain modems to aggregate overlapping spectrum even if the overlapping parts were actually blanked. So I think there might be firmware issues that need to be resolved first, which T-Mobile might not consider worth the effort for 4MHz at this time.
    • Tbh not that surprising. Every ISP seems to want to have an MVNO to pitch to their customers to make them stickier and maybe make some money in the process. And unlike USCC the MVNO should be able to cover TDS's entire wireline area, with infrastructure costs that are borne by someone else. Entertaining, yes. Surprising, not really...particularly when competing against Comcast or Spectrum, or even eventually T-Mobile fixed + mobile. This also strengthens my bet that they'll rebrand all their fixed wireless stuff as TDS, as that runs on spectrum they're keeping for now.
    • No? RCS on Google messages works great for me, messages between anyone with RCS enabled go through with no problems. Don't remember the last time I had an issue. I only have issues with people on iPhones on different carriers from T-Mobile.
    • Has anyone experienced a ridiculous amount of difficulty with Google messages with RCS enabled?  It has been a train wreck for me for the past year so I now use WhatsApp.  That works very well for all of us.... Android and iOS.
