Didn't know they had a warehouse here. I do know that the Geek Squad super City is here. They have a huge building right off I-65 were all the things sent in for repair get sent to. I know several people that work there, and as far as I know, repair is all they do, not warehousing. Could be wrong though. If they do have a shipping warehouse here I'd love to know where it is.

Best Buy warehouse is off Cedar Grove Rd across the street from Amazon.

I stand corrected. Couldn't connect at all on my way back. Good thing I got the serving cell IDs the first time.

I haven't been able to connect since late yesterday afternoon.

Staying on 3G pretty consistently right now. Even cycling airplane mode doesn't seem to help. It was good while it lasted.

Signal is all over the place. Tried to map through Sensorly and it continues to go in and out. Did get up to 7mbps at one point.

Just picked up an LTE signal in Shepherdsville. Been steady for about a half hour. Speeds are only about .50mb right now.

I did not cycle airplane mode. I'll try that next time I go through. As far as Shepherdsville, Sprint just says the data being slow or gone is because of the tower being upgraded. I've tolerated bad, but unusable is trying my patience.

I'm no longer picking up any 4g signals around Newburg, Poplar Level or 264. Sensorly is showing purple, but I'm not connecting the past two times I've gone through there this week. Saw a few new splotches of purple show up on 65 close to 265, but didn't connect there either. Data in Shepherdsville has been unusable all week so hopefully that is good news.

I'm in Okolona and suddenly noticed I'm on 4G. I'll be darn. Getting 6 mbps down.

It has begun. Keep an eye out for this.

 

New Ericsson cabinets with the legacy Sprint equipment behind them. Found two sites like this last night.

I've been in almost weekly contact with corporate tech support over my data issues and they said that the capacity upgrade was moved up for Shepherdsville. When I talked to him a few days ago he said that it was more than just a capacity upgrade, but for LTE too. I asked when it was scheduled to be complted and he said 6-9 months. As always, I'll believe it when I see it, but I'm hopeful.

It didn't last long. Back down to normal now.

Huge speed increase today. 902kbps down is more than double the normal for me.

They said they upgraded a T-1 line. Ticket was escalated again because data speeds are horrible according to person I talked with. They are supposed to call me back tomorrow. Maybe I'll ask if it is NV. Can't hurt.

My data speeds are usually around 300-400kbps. Never higher.

I was told the upgrade was completed on 2/8, but today the tower was showing offline.

This afternoon I'm back to connecting to evdo. I have not noticed any speed increases.

Been talking to Sprint about my slow data and noticed today that I'm connecting to eHRPD in Shepherdsville now. That wasn't the case in December. The technician I was talking to said that there is major work going on at the tower closest to me.
