  1. Sprint is moving tho. Hope the momentum cintinues
  2. Also seen Ericsson at that site 270 and Westerville
  3. Seen the climbers on the tower on morse and sunbury roads look like they were messing with the bottom tier of panels
  4. I've only had my Airrave 2wks. I go from 1x to 1-2bar LTE than 3G. Not complaining at all. Rather have something then nothing
  5. The way sites been lighting up, it may be sooner
  6. Would be nice to have a couple more bars in the home
  7. All I need is that signal to be a but stronger from court right. LTE comes and goes in the house
  8. Agree. Everything Sprint puts out is criticized by unhappy subs. We were all once/still, there at one point. Obviously Sprint knows where they're headed or they wouldn't be doing anything. Who would invest $billions in a company with no future?
  9. Sprint CEO explains why his 4G network is still terrible One of the biggest mysteries in the American wireless industry is why Sprint’s LTE network is still so slow compared to its competition despite the fact that Sprint has considerably more spectrum than its rivals. GigaOM asked Sprint CEO Dan Hesse about why his network is still so far behind the competition and he gave the standard CEO response: It’s complicated. “There’s a complexity to this network build that’s never been undertaken, in my view, by anyone in the world,” Hesse told GigaOM. “We’re playing three-dimensional chess.” In fairness to Hesse, Sprint is still suffering from some of the bad decisions made by his predecessors. Sprint’s decision to buy Nextel and its decision to initially go with WiMAX over LTE as its 4G technology were both disastrous mistakes that set the company back years. Plus, as Hesse tells GigaOM, Sprint’s spectrum isn’t as contiguous as the spectrum held by AT&T and Verizon, which only adds to the challenges of building a high-performing LTE network. “Most of Sprint’s competitors had access to a good 20 MHz of 4G spectrum over which they could build pristine new LTE systems,” GigaOM explains. “Sprint has had to stitch airwaves from across the electromagnetic spectrum.” Even so, GigaOM notes that T-Mobile has made considerably more progress in getting its LTE network up to speed despite facing some of the same challenges that Sprint has in terms of contiguous spectrum. And it doesn’t help matters that Hesse still can’t set a timeline for when his company’s network will be on par with its competitors. “I really can’t give you a magic date because the build will continue through 2015,” Hesse explained to GigaOM. “We’re moving on a city by city basis.” In other words, Sprint customers: Don’t hold your breaths.
  10. What band of LTE is going thru Whitehall on E. Broad?
  11. Does the signal get stronger over time with LTE or does that have to be manually adjusted? I'm right at the tip of it
  12. LTE in my house James rd 70 area. It wasn't there bout 3 hrs ago
  13. LTE in my house James rd 79 area. It wasn't there bout 3 hrs ago
  14. The purple mapped on Sensorly on e. Livingston is real close to me but I'm not picking it up
  15. 70 and James which is 33. Got overexcited
  16. Sweet!!! Now once it can get close to 33 and James I'll really be a happy custy and stop being fuzzy
  17. Are these towers that are being lit all iphone5 bands?
  18. When I'm in 1x I have problems with it all.
  19. Why is 1x so crappy? I need technical explanation. This site sure is better than going to a Sprint Store to get LTE explained. Sprint should train all there reps on the Network...not just the basics.
  20. iPhone 5 says frequency Band 25 if that means anything
