Hi from a Clear user in KC


xrayman

Recommended Posts

I joined sometime back but never got around to posting. Great info, guys keep up the good work!

 

I have been using Clear from it's start here in KC. It's my primary connection to the net. Worlds better than the WildBlue satellite I had before. I live in a rural area south of KC, just out of reach of any land line that could offer high speed home internet service. I am retired, living on my SS for the most part and the $45 I pay for Clear is a bargain. I will be keeping Clear until the day Sprint pulls the plug on it.

The reason for xrayman is that was my old CB handle. I worked in the x-ray business for 43 years.

Thanks, Bill

Thanks for the Welcome guys.

I have been offline for two days. Thursday night at 11pm my Clear site went down, the one they just installed new equipment on. Clear CS said the tower is reported as down and gave me a ticket number. I am now operating on a backup connection, the next Clear site to the east of me over 7 miles away, it is very low speed, only around 200K down.

    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
    • At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!
    • Did you mean a different site? eNB ID 112039 has been around for years. Streetview even has it with C-band back in 2022 - https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7303042,-73.9610924,3a,24.1y,18.03h,109.66t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g!2e0!5s20220201T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D18.027734930682684%26pitch%3D-19.664180274382204%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu Meanwhile, Verizon's eNB 84484 in Fort Greene has been updated to include C-band and CBRS, but not mmWave. I've seen this a few times now on updated Verizon sites where it's just the CBRS antenna on its own, not in a shroud and without mmWave. Odd.
