Deval Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Now I know why we aren't discovering 800 lte coverage. I wish you all would set the priority to 26, 41, 25. So you see SMR first then BRS then PCS. Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2 No point though, I don't believe LTE is deployed at all on 800mhz.

ericdabbs Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 No point though, I don't believe LTE is deployed at all on 800mhz. I think his point is that it can be any day now that we could see LTE 800 so why not set priority to B26 on highest. I agree with u in that I think its still too early to assume any LTE 800 is currently deployed.

Sent from my Motorola Photon 4G using Tapatalk 2 Considering the last reports from Rob peg 800 1x deployment at <1%, I seriously doubt we'll see 800mhz LTE soon. Also, that should strictly be a fallback, and the priority should be 41, 25, 26, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericdabbs Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Considering the last reports from Rob peg 800 1x deployment at I agree that B26 should be last priority from a network standpoint once LTE is deployed on all bands and the ordee should be B41, B25, B26. I think what makes this community so great compared to other sprint forums is that a lot of the members share information on their findings especially with network vision progress (permit maps and pics of sites in progress, etc) and i think we are all just trying to look for evidence that LTE 800 is underway. We have evidence of LTE 2600 deployed and thats great but what most sprint customers care about is LTE 800 which is really going to be a game changer with indoor penetration and also usable data for those that are just outside of 1900 mhz range.

Sent from my Motorola Photon 4G using Tapatalk 2 I personally care more for 800 mhz voice than I do LTE. Low signal kills battery life and I often find myself having to go nearer to windows on the current Sprint 1900 mhz signal I get. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tampaflusa Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 So the hand off on a city expressway should be good going from 2600 to 2600? This is asuming the best signal and prl order has 2600 first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If site density is high enough, handoff shouldn't be any different than from 1900 to 1900. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rawvega Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Honestly, I didn't even check. I'm not certain how to find that out on my Zing. Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilotimz Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 It's 20mhz. A 3:2 TDD-LTE carrier on 10mhz will get you around 10 mbps UL. a 20mhz carrier gets you around 20-25 mbps UL. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiWavelength Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Honestly, I didn't even check. I'm not certain how to find that out on my Zing. I have not seen any engineering screen readout on the Netgear tri band hotspot that specifies LTE carrier bandwidth. But no way are you getting 34 Mbps down, 18 Mbps up out of a 10 MHz TDD carrier, nor a 5 MHz FDD carrier. The process of elimination indicates a 20 MHz TDD carrier.

I handed off to dozens of TD-LTE 2600 sites in Denver. Had zero problems. Worked flawlessly, even while streaming.
