Craig Posted September 29, 2013 Author Share Posted September 29, 2013 All the tall tales aside, northern colorado springs is going through some data woes, just like I had in San Antonio when they were upgrading sites. Intermittant connection issues and such. I remember those were resolved once the site was done with testing and fully online. Getting some dropped calls too, but again, nothing major. Sent from my GT-P7310 using Tapatalk 4 I've had some issues sending texts lately. Sometimes they take near a minute to show as sent, sometimes it fails to send at all. Hoping it's related to some major work being done in the area. . . I've run into the same issue in other cities I've been through while they were working on NV.

AcctDeleted_Merlin Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Shoot me a PM and I can check on specific network issues in your area. I can tell you the northern CoSprings has been fairly busy in the past few weeks with NV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xiutehcuhtli Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 all non praise is labeled complaining and endures light flaming its is best ignored so since I haven't seen you in this particular forum before, I will assume that you have not seen the numerous posts that this individual has made asking the same things over, and over, and over. To their credit, the inquiries have been less repetitive over the last 4 weeks or so, but what we have here is the classic Boy who cried wolf scenario.

mdholt21 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I was headed home on US6 yesterday and when I came to the intersection with CO-93 in Golden I had full LTE coverage for about a mile north on 93 and then I fell back onto the 3g network.

maximusmgm Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I was in Golden yesterday and picked up weak LTE near Washington and CO-93. This was probably around 6pm give or take an hour. What time did you pick up LTE?

To their credit, the inquiries have been less repetitive over the last 4 weeks or so, but what we have here is the classic Boy who cried wolf scenario. it is not reasonable to expect anyone to find an answer in a topic with 805 posts. of course 4g in denver is broad and watching it grow is the point. if it is not possible for a lead to switch a post to an appropriate forum then it would be better post a link to the answer. ignoring is more productive than sniping 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maximusmgm Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Hopefully sensorly comes out with an iOS7 compatible app....I'd be happy to pitch in for the war effort! Huh.

maximusmgm Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 The range on that Genesee tower is rather short. I'd be very surprised if thats where it was coming from. I wonder if they were testing one of the sites in the area (the one at Mines perhaps)? Actually, that's not TOO far from the LTE tower at Genesee.

Cloaker Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 cough*DN03XC099*coughcough Where is that tower? Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 I doubt it's the Genesee tower. Terrain between the tower and where the signal was received would preclude that. If it was C099, there should have been a signal a lot further north than just one mile from US-6 & 93 (the tower itself is nearly one mile N of the intersection). I'm banking on C100 or the Mines tower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maximusmgm Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I drove by 99 Sunday and didn't pick up LTE...it dropped off on the way up to it. Based on my drive (up 6 right from 470 onto 19th, through town on Washington to 93) I think its the site on Mines campus. I doubt it's the Genesee tower. Terrain between the tower and where the signal was received would preclude that. If it was C099, there should have been a signal a lot further north than just one mile from US-6 & 93 (the tower itself is nearly one mile N of the intersection).

philibuster Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I was at the first crossing of Lookout Mountain Road on the Chimney Gulch Trail yesterday and was pulling a decent LTE signal. It was the first one I've been able to run a speedtest on, 5mbps down, 3mbps up, ~100ms ping. If that was the Genesee tower, it was going through the earth. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 If that was the Genesee tower, it was going through the earth. Sprint's new Band -41 (sub 41) ELF LTE. You can get LTE on a sub anywhere in the world now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maximusmgm Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I called in about not getting calls, but getting voicemail notifications. They said the sites serving Uptown/eastern edge of downtown were seeing higher than usual blocked and dropped rates. They said it had been happening since 9/18. I've had some issues sending texts lately. Sometimes they take near a minute to show as sent, sometimes it fails to send at all. Hoping it's related to some major work being done in the area. . .

Carrilloevo Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 It seems like golden is getting 4g any time soon, just saw a dot of 4g on sensorly, by 14th and cheyenne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcctDeleted_Merlin Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 When the full LTE goes live you will know it. They can't bring up individual sites as they are completed as the NV and legacy equipment can't talk to each other properly. When it happens it will be huge and it will be entire clusters at a time. You are only seeing the sites as they are being tested for a short time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
