Network Vision/LTE - Missouri Market (includes St. Louis)

Recommended Posts

Just got LTE at my house. It's by Quail Ridge park at 40 and 70 ish. I can't check out sites tonight because the sun is just about to go down out here and I already have other plans that I can't get out of. If I get a chance tomorrow I will find out what site it is. Here is the HEX ID, but I don't remember what number correlate to which direction, so if one of you guys could remind me, I can probably figure out which tower it is and let you guys know. Then tomorrow I'll get pictures. Or this could be a site accepted that has not been put on the map yet. I haven't checked out the recently accepted sites that lilg740 has linked to (from Saturday I think), so it may be one of those. Sorry to write such a long post, I'm just really happy to see some action our here in Wentzville.

It's either from Hopewell and N or Winghaven and 40.

I think it's from Hopewell and N. If I go towards that way, I get a better signal (via signal check pro). And it is also a very weak signal, which would make sense that it is traveling from that far away. The other towers in the area are much closer. We will know for sure tomorrow when I go check out that tower. The winghaven and 40 site is quite a ways away. I don't think my EVO could pick that up. Haha.

Is anyone else having activation issues?

No... But tower issues yes lol.

 

None of the accepted towers on the south side of Springfield are active now. And several of them aren't even allowing EVDO connections. Just 1x. The signal is there, I can see it on signal check, but the tower won't accept the connection. I see it bounce from tower to tower but won't lock on. 1x did work though.

I dove over to two of the STL sites 4G accepted this week and no LTE either.

Oh OK so the only off days you'd have is your PTO?

 

I have some PTO and since I just hit 1 year I think I'll get 1 week of Vacation time too....but yeah we're running 247 so my coworkers and I split holidays up.  We only have 1 person here per shift on holidays and we get paid double time for it so it's not too bad.

Hopefully it didn't hurt to bad when you dove.

Nahh I was looking for something to do, just disappointed no LTE and sector id's for your list.

    • 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....
