Crown Castle does work for all the carriers, so it's a lot harder to tell who is who. Same goes for the sites which are already on-air. The only true test outside of working for Sprint is to stand in front of them with a phone in debug mode.
-
Or check the SprintZone app
-
Thx!
-
Can you take a screenshot of your debug menu when you're connected to it again?
-
Yes there are reports across the country where PCS C block is used with G to create 10mhz LTE carriers.
-
Not sure what you're asking?
-
Which stop did you take that screenshot/
-
Yeah try removing the option from both lines from sprint.com and see if it works. I read this somewhere before as to how someone else fixed it.
-
Not that recently, within a year or so.

The best way to troubleshoot HD voice issues is by removing the WIFI CALLING option from your plan on sprint.com, after disabling it on your device. Do the same for your fiancee's phone and you should be golden. I had to do the same for my wife's phone and she noticed the difference immediately.

I have a feeling some of those sites have access and upgrade issues and will probably need to be moved at some point. A great example is the site that used to be located on top of an abandoned bankrupt hospital in Queens. The building went up for auction and access was limited so that area was left with poor coverage till Sprint finally was able to move to a nearby building and fix coverage.
-
Those antennas on the taller building are Sprint tri-band sites (ALU B25/B26/B41), so it appears they replaced the Samsung WiMAX equipment with ALU.
-
Sprint has 15mhz of PCS B block in the NYC market which covers NJ
-
I'm surprised more companies do not have dual SSID networks, even authenticated ones. We recently upgraded our network here and went completely wireless with the APs broadcasting a secure network which only authenticated on corporate assets, and an authorized guest network which required credentials but no device restriction.
-
Primarily street level to relieve the capacity on nearby macro sites.
-
That's great to see! The best part is that without advertising, every customer walking by those areas will benefit from the upgrade. Can't wait to see the rest come on air.
-
Wasn't aware of what market OP was in
-
It's all relative. I'm in a mixed ALU/Samsung market in NYC and it works great handing off between sites and filling gaps. I find my devices usually are on B41 70% of the time, if not more.
-
I believe those will eventually will be replaced with ALU/Nokia.
-
It would cost a tremendous amount of money for very little ROI other than measuring peak speeds to swap out all the perfectly functional Clearwire B41 2CA equipment.
-
You'd have to shutdown all EDGE and everything else and be totally LTE before you get to that amount of deployment.
-
You are aware that Sprint's tiered plans all have unlimited 2G after you use your high speed allotment.
-
No S-pen though.
-
I would say that in major markets where there is an equal mix of Clearwire B41 and Sprint B41 sites, it's better to just leave the 2xCA in place and upgrade the Sprint B41 to 3xCA. The drop in speeds wouldn't be as noticeable unless you're actively using 20+mbps.
-
That was good to read. Curious what the specifics will be.
