When I went to Columbia in October I tried to get as many of those as I could. If it was warmer it would be a good road trip to Kirksville area on the motorcycle to get all of them up there.

I had a dream last night that I broke my N5 after i had just sent off my GNex to it's new owner. I was so mad and frustrated. In the dream I woke up and it was just shattered. I was so happy when I really woke up though.

 

PS, we are up to 31 confirmed b41 sites.

The site on Locust near grand is being worked on. I only know because they are paying us to remove some windows so they can get the new equipment in the building. It's a rooftop site(loft building)

Sector 2 of 270/Olive has had no internet access for a few days now.  I connect to 4G fine but everything fails to load.

I work in the building that has the equipment on the roof so a coworker that is literally 5 cubicles away from me cannot use 4G at his desk because he pulls sector 2 and I pull sector 1, lol.  I walked around the office this evening and verified that sector 3 is ok too, but 2 definitely does not work right.

 

Do you think that Sprint would be aware of a problem like this already?  I'm really not looking forward to calling a level 1 support person who is going to tell me to restart my phone to fix the problem.

I have my doubts that they know very fast if a tower has problems based on calls I made to them in the past. It wouldn't hurt to call them if you can stomach being told to restart your phone. If you know of other people having the same issue tell them.

 

Softbank in Japan has a system I saw in one of the power points back during the merger process that people can opt in to running a program that tracks the quality of your connection and reports problem spots.  I sure hope that move to have Sprint follow the same.

 

Found it http://webcast.softbank.co.jp/en/results/20130730/pdf/2014q1.pdf its on the page numbered 39 in the bottom right. They call it data connection rate survey. The page numbered 68 makes me think they will bring it here soon.

If you want send me a message with your phone number and I can put in a network ticket without you having to talk to them. Send me the tower info as well if you can.

I made a post over in the sponsor MO NV map thread last night the site at 70/Truman road just out side the fence of my apartment went LTE live last night. I got 12 Mbps from my bed using it with a 53 ms ping. Not too bad, but I will still be on my WiFi at home. Out and about it will be nice.

 

It's been a bit since one went live in St Chuck.

Here is the engineering screen for the Mitchell site near I-270 & Old Alton Rd.

 

I mapped about 345 points.

 

I remember seeing that the site on Gateway hospital in Granite has been accepted. I have not been able to connect to it at all. Seems like it might be a red stick or in donut mode.

    • Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

    • Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.
    • Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.  
    • Everything "Uncarrier" is becoming "Carrier" again. Because of the Credit Limit that T-Mobile put on our account for no reason at all (and wouldn't change/update the last time I checked all the way up to the CEO), I don't plan on buying/upgrading our iPhones through T-Mobile. I'm going through Apple directly. Looks like I'll be going through Google and Samsung directly for our other lines for upgrades. Also, we're staying on Sprint Max given the ridiculous pricing for Go5G Plus. On Sprint Max, we currently pay for our Plan: $260 for 7 Voice Lines $25 for two Wearable Lines. (One is $10/Month. The other is $15/Month because the AutoPay discount only applies up to 8 lines.) Total: $285/Month vs. Go5G Plus (Per the Broadband Facts "nutrition label" on the T-Mobile Website): https://www.t-mobile.com/commerce/cell-phone-plans $360 - ($5 AutoPay Discount x 7 Voice Lines) = $325 The Watch Plans show as either $12/Month or $15/Month: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone-plans/affordable-data-plans/smartwatches So this is about the same for the wearables as what we're paying now. Overall, it's quite more than we're paying now to switch plans. Ridiculous....
