Thats a good sign.....I get those type of speeds....but early morning and late night.....when the network is quiet... Sent from my Epic 4G (WiSuck) using Forum Runner

I have not experienced it as much as I have now during the upgrade process.

I get all my information here. The only upgrades that are not going to be NV are ones that are done in non major metros.

Furthermore greg, if you have noticed an HUGE increase in dropped calls, data not working right (which it sounds like you have) thats usually a sign that upgrades are currently being done in your area. These conditions will last about 2 weeks or until upgrades are completed in your area.

Looks like NV upgrades are going on in NY NY. More information on what NV is here.

Do you know the Tower number....? I can check for you. *EDIT* duh, nevermind, Forum Runner didn't say you were a sponsor.... Sent from my Epic 4G (WiSuck) using Forum Runner

AT&T messed up with the iPhone, their network was great, but it wasn't built for the amount of data that came with the Apple hipsters.

LOLOL!!!!! I didn't need to read any further. Absolutely great.

All this makes me think about is a possible monthly bill increase.....

Well if its like any of the other markets, they will activate all towers but BLOCK LTE access to all but a select few users that are testing the service. Then they will unblock them in clusters. I don't know this for fact, just based on everything I've been reading on this site.

Right? I would be dying to contribute if I was in a position to do so.....

I think Chicago is going to be up and running full speed by the end of August. Crews are moving really fast. Sent from my Epic 4G (WiSuck) using Forum Runner

Cant do screen captures. Havent taken the time to root my recently replaced phone. I get 3x better connectivity in Sycamore than I do DeKalb though.... Sent from my Epic 4G (WiSuck) using Forum Runner

Antenna 1 is CH60XC008 Antenna 2 is CH33XC900 and the cabinets pictured (Antenna 3) is CH33X046 The NV LIVE tower one town over I was talking about with the crazy 3G speeds is tower CH60X007

I will get the antenna numbers off the map for my area when I get back to a computer. Sent from my Epic 4G (WiSuck) using Forum Runner

I went searching at the 3 known towers in my town to see if I could spy some NV cabinets. Just a thought, since DeKalb isn't slated for work until June....so off I went. First antenna..... .....15 story retirement community....no cabinets for me to look at.... MOVING RIGHT ALONG.... Antenna 2 even worse, right in the heart of campus....6 story apartment building. Cabinets were not even above ground, all conduit went into the ground. Well what a large waste of time....on to Antenna 3.... !!!!!!!! MAYBE? new flexible and rigid conduit, is it possible that my town is ahead of schedule??!!! One thing I can tell you, the 3G speeds in town are still slow, so if these cabinets do hold the new equipment....its not running just yet, but it kind of made my night. Another set of eyes would help to, if anyone can confirm what I'm seeing....that would also help. The 3 towers that are pictured above, I did speed tests between 6:00pm and 7:00pm in the evening right below each tower, average speed was about .60Mbps down and .30Mbps up.....not exactly what I would think NV would give. There is ONE NV active tower according to the maps shown in the Maps forum for Sponsors one town over that I went and visited. I was not able to take pictures as it is on a persons private farm property, but I was able to get 1.35Mbps down and .75Mbps up at about 5:30pm. So....... Anyway, just wanted to share my nerdy evening with everyone.

Take it easy man. There are enough helpful people on the boards to help out while youre away! Be safe!!! Sent from my Epic 4G (WiSuck) using Forum Runner

A friend of mine who has a few towers and provides wireless broadband to farmers in my community, shared this with me this evening. Amazing what we don't think about when we make a cell phone call....

Thats pretty detailed for someone to be just BSing you. Unless (like some salesmen) hes good at stretching the truth. For your sake, I hope hes right!!!! Sent from my Epic 4G (WiSuck) using Forum Runner
