    This will be super interesting to see once 800 kicks into high gear. There's gonna be a whole lot of purple for Sprint :-)

    It's a shame too, when I heard that it would have such wide LTE support, I was quite hopeful. Maybe a new Sprint model down the line (he wished).

    Not upgrading to anything without Tri-band support.

    Ericcson was out at the Ocoee water tower today. Progress! Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    I don't even bother looking at the Sprint upgrades, as I have found they rarely mean anything in the real world. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    I've noticed that sometimes at Winter Garden village as well. Don't know if it's peak time lag or testing or what, but certainly can be a pain. Also, who gave our LTE inspector the weekend off? :-) Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    I imagine it's frustrating going from a great Sprint city to one that isn't as great. The question is can you wait for good unlimited LTE. If unlimited data doesn't matter to you and/or you're not worried about pricing, then I'd advocate looking at sensorly.com and the carrier sites to get an idea of who would be best for you. Between the discount I'm getting and how much data I use, leaving Sprint would cost me a minimum of $50/month, so I'm just dealing with it and celebrating each time LTE gets flipped on somewhere near me. In the end only you can decide if it's worth waiting though. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    A few things: the handoff between towers (if you could even find multiple continuous Wimax towers on your drive) is typically not great, so I wouldn't be too surprised if you drop connection between towers. Second, the handoff between 3G and Wimax was never very graceful for me so again, no surprise that it's not great for you. Third, West Orlando's 3G has always varied between acceptable and abysmal. Depending on when you're trying to stream could be a high volume timeframe when streaming of any kind will go poorly. Finally, I believe that Sprint is throttling prepaid users who use more than 2.5GB in a month, so you might have hit the soft cap too. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    Essentially one or zero bars. Definitely not usable. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    This happens to me all the time in one room of the house. Usually signal is -118 to -124 Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    The Pine Hills tower on 50 seems like it's really getting the snot beat out of it being the only 4G tower for a considerable distance. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    Seems like they're still testing as I'm back to 3G. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    First Ocoee LTE tower is live! Don't think 3G is up just yet though. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    Unfortunately Tmo has basically no 3G coverage where I live in Ocoee, so I'll be patiently waiting for LTE. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    Sadly, Disney in general has always had very iffy signal with Sprint. I used to work in AK and couldn't even GET a 3G signal in the trailer behind the Safari, much less have it be fast. Nowadays, if I get a strong LTE signal it's ok, but when the parks are packed like they have been lately, it still grinds down quite a bit. They do at least have free wifi though :-)

    The White road Ocoee tower is definitely showing signs of progress today! Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    This would be perfect! I just got my 5 so I would be more than happy to have LTE all around orlando, and in my apartment of course lol That's definitely what I care about. Give me LTE in Ocoee! Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    Not necessarily new towers, but just LTE on the existing ones. I'm assuming acceptance means they're clear to work on it? Or does it mean they have approval and have actually started work on it? And how long will it take from being "accepted" to us actually seeing a 4G icon on our phones? I'm just saying there has been no additional sensorly LTE locations added anywhere near downtown in 2 months it seems like. LTE acceptance typically means LTE is available but is not always the case. Similarly, I've seen the tower in pine hills broadcast LTE a full two weeks before it was accepted. As for location, Ocoee is in a similar situation with not getting LTE live other than bleed through from pine hills and winter garden. Not having LTE where you want it isn't the same as no progress.

    Lol. There are so many birds that need to be relocated here it's ridiculous. Sent from my Galaxy S3

    Nice to see progress happening even with this weather. When they're done can you send them to Ocoee, please? :-) Sent from my Galaxy S3

    It certainly isn't helping, and remember too, the Orlando market doesn't just mean metro Orlando. Towers well outside the city limits have been getting lit up like crazy, especially in the outlying areas (probably easier to get access to sites here). Either way, they are definitely making progress, even if they're not lighting up towers in the order I would prefer. :-)

    Unless there are some undocumented acceptances, it definitely does not. Goes through parts of MK, very little of Epcot, and some of Studios. I could get a faint but useless signal in the Animal Kingdom parking lot also. Sent from my Galaxy S3
