The WiMax countdown clock has been added to the Front Page of the Forums.  It's even in "Clear" Green.  Will begin a Sponsor the clock raffle soon!

Would be pretty cool if we end up getting islands of LTE on B41.  But I think I'd rather see LTE roaming agreements to go live already!

I feel like I should experience WiMAX one last time.  But, nah, it is not gonna happen.

WiMax speeds are great currently and the tower that I am using was congested but it seems to "clear" up and I am pulling 10MB down. Not bad for the old network, up from 5-6MB down before.

Yeah, it will likely get better and better, right up until the end.  Just one month from now.

 

Definitely bittersweet.

The end is nigh.  The streets are nearly empty.  Most of the natives have packed up and moved elsewhere.  Those left are cowering with fear and huddling in churches.

Quote: "Beginning immediately, Kajeet will partner with school districts to trade-in unusable WiMAX devices obtained from other companies in exchange for Kajeet SmartSpot devices. Districts will need to confirm their service is on the WiMAX network with another company, and Kajeet will provide a new free SmartSpot for each received device, as well as low-price LTE service on the nation’s largest wireless network."

is there any news on the protection sites? Or is it delayed because of the shutdown not being complete yet?

 

No news.  We probably will not have any more news until the WiMAX court order expires or gets extended.

 

In the meantime, do not have a massive attack.  Or do have a Massive Attack.  You have "Protection."

So does anyone have access to Wimax since the network is still up or is it only working for the parties that are part of the court case?

Check other relevant threads here at S4GRU.  Some still have been able to access WiMAX.  Others have not.  It is mixed.

I was driving a couple of days on CA-87 in the Downtown San Jose area and my good old Evo4G got 12MB down and 1.5MB up during heavy traffic. I'm still enjoying WiMax as long the system is on air and FreedomPOP is unable to meter WiMax data. Thank you Sprint, this reminds me the good old days of a BoostBerry!

    • Also a full system update, security update of about 500 or so MB
    • A new 60MB GP System update was waiting when I checked my S24+ tonight.  And bringing it to a November 1 date this time. 
    • Pixel 8a Dec system update over 800 mb is out for locked t mobile.
    • Drove by there and it definitely isn't on the Northlake property. It was very late, so I couldn't see much else though. Did some more sleuthing on GoogleMaps and I suspect it might be this powerline site nearby: Google Maps I will go by there in the next couple of days during the daytime and see if that's the case.
    • Vinegar Hill is getting the Brooklyn Heights treatment now with regard to small cells. I mapped two more small cells in the neighborhood in the past few days so now T-Mobile is up to 8 of them in such a tiny neighborhood. While it's cool they're doing this since it means outdoors you get a consistent 400Mbps+ almost everywhere, it sucks because they're obviously deploying so many of them to make up for their lack of a macro site in the entire neighborhood. Because there isn't a macro, the small cells have a greater coverage area than you see in other neighborhoods and you often connect to them while indoors but coverage and speeds fall off indoors much faster on small cells than on macros in my experience.  Even Dish has better coverage than T-Mobile in Vinegar Hill since they added the site on top of the Extra Space Storage building alongside AT&T and Verizon. T-Mobile needs to get in line with their competitors there.
