Paynefanbro Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Sprint's LTE on the interstates in the Northeast is pretty good. I was on LTE for nearly the whole trip. I was on I95 for about half of it from Brooklyn to Boston. The only time I recall being on 3G for an extended period of time was on I84 in northeastern Connecticut, approaching the border of Massachusetts. Eastern Connecticut in general seem to be having hard time getting LTE. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthony.spina97 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 So I was just looking through my usage for my iPhone 5s, and I saw this: Which is odd, because it's an iPhone 5s, so I don't have Wifi calling of any sort, or Wifi texting, so this is kind of confusing. Anyone else seeing something like this? -Anthony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is about time the FCC starts saying not to these squatters. 4 years have gone by and these local governments can't resolve their issues is rediculous. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakland is practically blackmailing Sprint saying we will hold you up on anything and everything related to Rebanding because we suffer from interference in a few places, of which, is mostly AT&T. Including holding millions of dollars in equipment that they aren't even using. What a joke. Sprint is not in the clear, of course. They will have to address the interference, albeit outside of rebanding. And they will have to entertain Oakland's change order request, and go to mediation if they don't approve it. But I love the language the FCC used here in slicing right through the BS and outline a practical approach that allows the rebanding process to complete and still give Oakland an opportunity to resolve its issues within the processes available. Common sense rules the day. Now if the FCC would just throw out the licenses of spectrum squatters who never have met their build out requirements years ago in the same effective manner. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plato2876 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I'm curious how much interference there actually is. It sounds to me like Oakland was just grasping at straws with a "And it's his fault! Not ours. Never our fault!". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, that is some fine Oakland urban intelligence on display. AJ 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kg4icg Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 The problem with cites in California is they are trying to get money from any sources they can because they spent themselves into a hole and can't get out of it because of the tax base dwindling. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if you cought it but there is a typo, where sprint says that if the FCC is to grant Oakland an extension it should only do so to June of 2105. I think it was suppose to be 2015 but I would like to think sprint was using sarcasm to show how exaserbated they are with these localities holding them up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anywhere in the US within a small radius of Detroit -- except for Ann Arbor -- is Detroit. The presence of suburbs is due to Detroit.
