I have to tell you all I am near tears right now.  I am so stoked that Marcelo listened to us, directly.  I am sure he listened to all the feedback he heard.  But I believe S4GRU was influential in th

I'm still shocked and amazed how successful S4GRU has been in staying online, remaining relevant and keeping quality members and staff all with member donations from a relatively small pool. When we

Maybe he's outside of the city limits. He'll tweet as soon as he's back in town with a data connection.

So, you will be making clouds in Brazil?  The rainforest already has plenty of clouds.

Pretty bomb speeds for it to be inside of an airport.

nice speeds for an airport! The only area that really lacks still in Austin is the airport. Only B25 and maybe 1-3 Mbps.

Not everywhere, right? Just certain areas?

 

Yes, but see this article.

Just say OK to keep down any screaming and looking bad.     However, WIMAX hardware is old and it can fail for a variety of reasons.  Power supplies go boom. Radios quit working.   Power spikes happen. Technicians make mistakes and tell nobody.  Sites just go down. No spare equipment needs to be around anymore.  Turn up LTE on the same spectrum.  Reduce power on WIMAX. They will move off the network "soon". Sprint is not a charity.

This sucks but in a way Sprint I hope saw this not going there way. I really hope they have a plan b or c! Maybe this is incentive for more high capacity lte sites in affected areas till they can come to a better terms.

I do not work for Sprint or have any access that would allow me to do anything mentioned.  However I sure do know how to make things rough.  I could see a WIMAX site failing in Atlanta today and in Chicago tomorrow.  Neither site would have any spare parts available.  Available bandwidth to a site might decrease due to some crazy issue. Nothing would ever get fixed.  If I dispatched a technician, it would be one unqualified to repair a WIMAX site.  A loose connection on a fiber can cause a whole lot of errors.

Most judges will see right through that, and get really upset about it.

 

Disobeying a court injunction is a great way to get held in contempt of court, with significant fines levied...

      SignalCheck - Android app to monitor your Wi-Fi/2G/3G/4G LTE/5G-NR signal strengths

      By mikejeep · Posted

      After several months of testing, an update to SignalCheck Pro is rolling out on Google Play. It may take up to 48 hours to become available for download. Notable changes include: Added option to display site notes for NSA 5G-NR cells. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show NSA 5G-NR Site Notes) will cause the app to make an "educated guess" as to what the most appropriate site note is linked to the connected NSA 5G cell, using the PCI and the device location. If it finds an existing entry that is likely to be relevant, it will display the note along with the distance from where the strongest signal from that cell was logged. While connected to NSA 5G, these notes cannot be edited; a valid NCI is required to add/edit notes and that information is not available on NSA connections.   Added option to log cells with missing/invalid PLMN (such as NSA 5G-NR cells). Users asked for the ability to log data for NSA 5G, so a new option (Preferences > Logger Settings > Log Cells with Missing PLMN) will permit this.   Added option to display LTE info above 5G-NR info. Enabling this new option (Preferences > Display Settings > Show LTE Cells Above 5G-NR Cells) shows the same information that is currently displayed, but moves the LTE information above the 5G-NR information. Other changes: Code optimizations and enhancements. Improved Android 15 compatibility. Overhauled Purchases module. Resolved force closes impacting some GSM/LTE connections. Resolved issue with improper 5G-NR PLMN display when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with improper PLMN display with single-digit MNCs. Resolved issue with incorrect 5G-NR bands displayed on some devices due to Android bug. Resolved issue with incorrect number of neighbor cells displayed when some cells were unknown. Resolved issue with missing 5G-NR data when sector display is enabled. Resolved issue with saving 5G-NR site notes when NR/LTE PLMNs did not match. Resolved issue with settings to log missing GCI/NCI/TAC/PLMN being ignored. Resolved issues with web data export function. Updated internal libraries. Updated provider database. Updated target API to Android 15. I appreciate all of your support, and a big thank you to the members of the Beta Crew that help with testing and feedback!

      Stopped by again today and the antennas are up but it isn't live just yet. If other Sprint conversions are anything to go by it'll likely take about a month for the site to go live.

      By mikejeep · Posted

      It is an Android bug that was reportedly fixed in August 2023 but definitely has not been. I have implemented numerous workarounds in SCP to correct the NR bands the app displays. The OS ignores the possibility that many NR-ARFCNs are valid across multiple bands.. it reports the lowest NR band that is valid for the current ARFCN. In your example, channel 432530 can be n1, n65, or n66.. so the OS just (lazily) reports n1.   Awesome, thanks! I will add an n65 override also.
