I put together a map of cities where Sprint has already announced LTE, and the communities that Sprint has announced will have LTE soon. I have also marked the cities that have LTE available in the ar

Update!   In the two weeks since the last update, 48 new cities have newly received LTE coverage! Most notably, Phoenix, Arizona. We have also been able to add a few more communities in Ohio, as wel

The following communities have been marked with TD-LTE. I want to be clear on what this means. It means that these cities are part of Clearwire's initial TD-LTE rollout, and is expected to be complete

I was even getting 10Mbps inside the Park Meadows Mall with zero to one bar signal strength.

 

That must have helped you pass the time at American Girl.

This makes me smile! So I'm assuming that clearwire was pretty far along in Denver pre Sprint buyout? Is that the reason why or is it something else? It's clearly a plus either way.

It's already up for those with Triband LTE devices. Which will start going on sale next month. You can use it now with a Triband LTE hotspot. I had 30-50Mbps speeds on my Sprint Triband hotspot all over the Denver metro area. I was even getting 10Mbps inside the Park Meadows Mall with zero to one bar signal strength.Robert via Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 using Tapatalk

Clear had already begun deployment before the Sprint-Clear merger was even rumored about. They're continuing deployment as planned now. But later this year or early next things should tick up a bit as Softbank's plans get finalized.

Frontier's Internet services should be completely separate from their metro-e services. Anything more than 5 ms (other than consumer grade access networks) within Illinois has a problem.

whatis going with East Brunswick NJ there is only one site lit up and the others are all to far apart for me to even get a usable signal.. why isnt east brunswick listed.....

There are actually two sites up in East Brunswick. Both are off Route 18 and you get a good LTE signal if you're within the vicinity of 18. Check Sensorly. They're also testing another East Brunswick site that's giving off a signal near the NJ Turnpike.

 

I live in North Brunswick, and we have smaller pockets of LTE than you do. You gotta try and make the best of the situation, because it's only gonna get better from here.

I have New Brunswick on the map, is there really a reason to have East Brunswick on there too? They're right next to each other.

Not sure if this is considered official or not, but on 8/14/2013 I got a text message from SprintFreeMsg (6772) that read: Rochester, we're building you an all-new- network! See how this affects your service at http://sprint.us/rnr

 

Does that mean that the Rochester Market is now technically "coming soon"?

This is the second post I've seen today about Sprint informing their customers. It sounds like Sprint is buffing up their communication plan! Way to go Sprint. Keep it up!

      Are you sure that's Direct to Cell? That sounds like the 911 center was offline and they got brought back online via a Starlink uplink. Which also makes way more sense than Direct to Cell for that area.

      Sprint Super Bowl Coverage/DAS

      By RedSpark · Posted

      February is always closer than you think! https://stadiumtechreport.com/news/caesars-superdome-gets-matsing-deployment-ahead-of-super-bowl-lix/ Another Super Bowl, another MatSing cellular antenna deployment. Caesars Superdome, home of the NFL’s New Orleans Saints, has deployed a large number of cellular antennas from MatSing as part of an effort to increase wireless network capacity ahead of the upcoming Super Bowl LIX in February, 2025. It is the third such deployment of MatSing equipment at Super Bowl venues in as many years, following cellular upgrades at Allegiant Stadium for Super Bowl LVIII and at State Farm Stadium for Super Bowl LVII. According to the Saints, the MatSing antennas were part of a large wireless overhaul this offseason, done primarily “to satisfy fans’ desires for wireless consumption and bandwidth,” an important thing with Super Bowl LIX coming to the venue on Feb. 9, 2025. Each year, the NFL’s big game regularly sets records for wireless data consumption, with a steady upward progression ever since wireless networks were first put into stadiums. https://www.neworleanssaints.com/news/caesars-superdome-transformation-2024-new-orleans-saints-nfl-season-part-1-wifi-upgrades-wireless-cellular During the offseason renovation project, the foundation of the facility's new Distributed Antenna System (DAS) was the installation of 16 multi-beam, wideband spherical lense antennas that are seven feet in diameter and weigh nearly 600 pounds apiece, a model called the MatSing MS-48H180. Another 16 large antenna spheres of varying sizes and frequencies have also been installed for a total of 32 new large antennas, in addition to 200 cellular antennas inside and around the building, all of these products specifically made for high-density environments such as stadiums and arenas. The DAS system's performance is expected to enhance further as it becomes fully integrated throughout the season. The MatSing MS-48H180 devices, with a black color that matches the Caesars Superdome's roof, each were individually raised by hoist machines to the top of the facility and bolted into place. Each cellular antenna then transmits 48 different beams and signals to a specific area in the stadium, with each sphere angled differently to specifically target different coverage areas, allowing increased, consistent coverage for high-density seating areas. In addition to creating targets in seating and common areas throughout the stadium, these antennas create dedicated floor zones that result in improved coverage to the field areas for fans in 12 field-level suites and the Mercedes-Benz End Zone Club, teams and on-field media and broadcast elements. The project is also adding 2,500 new wireless access points placed in areas such as concourses, atriums, suites and food and beverage areas for better WiFi coverage.
