Clear no longer accept new customers....

Just not two weeks ago I got an envelope in the mail touting their home service plans and it was filled with their latest promo for home service.  But since I own a Clear device maybe that's why... it looks like if you have the device you can still get service... for now anyways.

So, that's possible to active a Clear device with Sprint

 

I don't know, but most (or all) clear devices self activate though a captive portal type web service (separate from their web site). I don't know if this is still active or not though.

Signing a contract with the cable company is like making a deal with the mob. Sooner or later they are going to be coming for your arm or leg and squeeze you until your whole family is swimming with the fish.

As a responsible landlord, if you don't want them to modify the wall, you should provide them the Internet and modify the wall as you wanted.

Cable's price was going over the roof. And apparently Verizon start to refuse providing DSL services.

 

Yeah depending on the area, Verizon is pushing strictly their fiber solution.

Hoping in future, Sprint will have an LTE based home internet (with unlimited data )

There will never be a truly unlimited wireless ISP option due to how much the "last mile" is shared. Even Clear has a soft cap of about 100GB. One can only hope that if Sprint offers fixed wireless at all that the caps are generous.

 

If you want a truly unlimited connection you'd best start lobbying your local government to build out a FTTH network that they could then choose to lease out or operate themselves.

Both Freedompop and another that is based in Portland are still offering service to new customers

If sprint is going to sell wholesale to others,,, why kill clearwire?  dosent make sence to me.

 

 

"FreedomPop's high speed wireless internet service runs on Clearwire's 4G WiMax network. The service will expand to include Sprint's 4G LTE network in 2013".

 

 

 

 

 

Millenicom ... was the name of the provider in Portland.  They offer unlimited to a point,, then if you go over a soft cap too often you have to start paying for two accounts according to the web site..

Oh and Freedompop is by no means cheeper then Clear,,,, 10 gig for 19.00 then 0.007 per meg after that,,, with my average usage of about 200 gig per month,, remeber this is a home ISP,,, not for a phone,,,, that comes to about 1400.00  a month.

 

200,000 Megs * 0.007 = 1400.00

100G caps is pretty reasonable and I'm OK with it

    • 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.
    • Hopefully this goes thru!  https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/1211mh7/tmobile_files_another_sta_application_to/
    • 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
