Warning: Long, but worth the read.  I just wanted to give a good customer service experience with Shentel. On one sector of the tower closest to my house (Woodstock, VA), B26 had zero data throug

I haven't seen anything pop up yet today. Just checked again the last things posted were on Friday. But it was just about the jobs and stuff from what I saw.

– FCC form 603, Exhibit 1 out-takes:

 

No NTELOS customer will lose service as a result of the transaction. For a period of up to twenty-four months following closing, existing NTELOS customers may keep their existing handsets and will be transitioned to Sprint rate plans that will be, for the vast majority of subscribers, identical or substantially similar to their existing NTELOS service plans. During that time and following expiration of their service contracts, however, NTELOS customers also will have access to a broader array of handsets and service plans, including the many options that are available to Shentel customers through its affiliation with Sprint

 

Shentel is planning to update the software in those NTELOS customers’ existing handsets, which can be updated remotely, to allow such customers to take advantage of the Sprint Nationwide 4G LTE network, which they cannot access today. 

 

Moreover, customers that travel outside of the NTELOS service area will enjoy a considerably enhanced roaming experience. Sprint has roaming agreements with numerous partners and can provide roaming coverage more efficiently and economically than can NTELOS.

 

Shentel, through its partnership with Sprint, will continue to serve some of the neediest consumers in rural areas through its participation in the Commission’s High Cost program, Mobility Fund, Lifeline, and related support programs. As such, Shentel will continue to comply with all current universal service support program and ETC requirements applicable to NTELOS’s existing operations.

If you're a Sprint user then you may be the first to report it! [emoji3]

      Its crazy what MM wave is capable of in ideal conditions. I took advantage of some overnight work this week to do some testing on my way home.  https://imgur.com/a/zPNUWVs

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      I haven't had the opportunity to test or map Dish here in NYC but they have tons of sites. I'm fairly certain that at this point they have contiguous coverage across the city, and in some places they likely have better coverage than the incumbents. I still think their weird split branding and lack of advertising is what's killing them, not the network.  I have no idea what they were thinking by launching a sub-brand for people to beta test their network and then another sub-brand specifically for postpaid service, and not even with the guarantee that it uses their network. They need to get rid of everything and start with a clean slate.

      Drove the entire 101 out on the Olympic Peninsula over the weekend and was able to map a number of TMO sites which weren't previously mapped. Also, did it in my Mach E (electric car). The Tesla Superchargers (especially the one in Forks, WA) made the whole trip SUPER easy.

      Ok so I signed up for service through Boost Infinite, I ended up getting the Motorola Razr got it today.  They sent the rainbow SIM 2.0 card.  Activation was a breeze, connected to Dish's native network (n70 and n71), took the phone out and... IMPRESSED with their network!  Getting 200 to 300Mbps over n70 and around 50 to 60 on n71 no coverage drops!  Gosh I hope Dish can get it together, VoNR was crystal clear as well.  Paying $25.00 a month for the Infinite plan and $10.00 for the Moto Razr.  Amazing deal... will do more testing this evening when I get more time.  But so far from what I'm seeing Dish needs to stay in the fight. Just rebrand off of damn Boost and call it Dish Wireless...

      I assume that any agreement is not perpetual and has an end date. - Trip
