And how's it's range? Does the LTE go very far?

 

According to reports, whole house coverage.

 

Personally I run a magical box which works extremely well as long as it doesn't hook up to b25.

Going to call customer service tomorrow or my contact, everything seems to be connected correctly during self configuration but not receiving any signal on 7+, 6p or tab 4.

 

I tried wifi on and off....

Wow that looks so familiar! I hope you get it fixed. It's a very useful device.

But does it support carrier aggregation?

what's the difference between the 2 devices?

Airave 3 needs a copper ethernet connection for backhaul.

 

Magic box (lte + booster) only requires a B25/41 connection present so that it can use LTE relay for backhaul.

I use to pick up a steady b41 connection now I mainly get 25/26 and a now cell edge 41 (120+ on signal). I wonder if I qualify for LTE booster?

Unlikely.

 

Restricted to certain people or businesses only.

 

You'll have a better chance with the airave 3 in the next few weeks.

I know a few weeks ago I was on a call with Sprint dealing with my data issue and a rep offered a airave to me and I said no thinking it was like the one I had back in 2010 because I had issues with calling. So thinking back it was probably the Airave 3 the rep was referring it.

I think I'll just stick to my current Airave 2.5...

Chances are, the Airave 3 with LTE requires a certain amount of bandwidth (like at the least, a 25mbps down / 5mbps up connection)...

I doubt VERY seriously I could get very much LTE use with the new one, as AT&T only gives me 5.9mbps down / 0.5kbps up.. (yeah, KBPS)...

That upload is the killer. If I'm trying to PS4 game with R6 Siege and someone starts streaming amazon music, it kicks me out of my game...that's crappy.

 

And I'm sure AT&T isn't in any hurry to get us better internet speeds around here. They enjoy ripping me for those extra 2 or 3 data packs they slap on me each month at $10 per 50gbs...

 

I'm so disgusted with that company...I can't put enough adjectives together to express what I wish would happen to them...

 

I do appreciate having 2 separate 24 pair fiber lines under my driveway...it's good to know that I can see the DSLAM that provides us all this crappy connection while standing in my yard (it's only about 100' away from my house).

I guess if the Fed ever regulates anything like internet, maybe they'll use G.Fast or something to give us better speeds -- and maybe even a competitive price. But we're not even 6 months into 2017 and AT&T has jacked my DSL up twice since January. $1 as of Feb 1st and $2 as of May 1st.

I'm at $61 now. 8 years ago it was $47.95 for naked DSL....

Wonder if it will be as simple as asking for one?  It was that simple for the AirWave 2.5 and Asus Router.  Just ask and I shall receive! 

 

Don't really need it at all.  Would love it for the 2.5GHz.  What kind of range does it have?  I wouldn't mind being my neighborhoods little B41 microcell, lol.  I got 1Gbps backhaul and the local tower doesn't have B41 yet.  Area is growing up and needs it.

It looks as though they changed the headline to something more professional now.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Unable to confirm if it's really off but I noticed this morning that I'm no longer connecting to Band 41 on my home site. Switching my phone to LTE-only pretty much always put me on Band 41 since it was the least used band on T-Mobile's network. Now I'm only able to connect to Band 2/66. Not complaining because it means speeds are faster on LTE and maybe 150MHz n41 is around the corner.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.

      Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
