Was able to order a R910 hotspot with unlimited data today. Looked at hotspots online while logged into my business account and plan selection was 10GB for $35 or unlimited for $55.

Sprint's extended LTE in Northern WI and the UP looks closer to AT&T's LTE coverage than it does Cellcom's.

Looks like an Extreme Networks ExtremeWireless AP3965i 

So, WiFi?

Any idea what these white boxes are?

Some is shown but not all if you compare with Cellcom's maps.  I wonder if its true as shown or if it was just a bug in their map data...?

That’s how the old map with “3G and More” kind of looked. Maybe they cherry picked certain sites.

Shows Cellcom LTE roaming in Northern WI.

In Sister Bay, WI which is native for Sprint (but an area where they struggle greatly) my SG7 showed US Cellular LTE and Sprint 1X in signal check pro.

Oh thats unfortunate. It makes sense I guess since the last update was in Nov 2015 on the non premier one. Are the premier maps out of date too?

 

Anyone actually been to Door County with sprint recently? I had ATT when I was there 2 years ago and it was just improving. I have T-Mobile now as my main line and I know it's just throttled and capped att roaming there with them. I wanted to bring my Nexus 6p on Ring Plus and use their native coverage in Sister Bay since it will be better than T-Mobile roaming.

I'm in Door County every other weekend.  The towers in Fish Creek and Sister Bay have been updated to band 25.  It really depends on where you're staying.  I stay near the corner of Cty Rd Q and Hwy 57 near Sister Bay and I can only get 3G which is mostly unusable.  Go a half mile up the road and you'll get LTE from the 1 tower in Sister Bay.  Ephriam is horrible unless you're phone will roam on US Cellular LTE.  The terrain really hurts the signal, it's too hilly.  

What device are you using?

Note5

In Princeton WI getting LTE roaming.

I've been seeing the b41 with a small two next to it in Green Bay, was wondering what that was.

Glad to see that Spark is actually working well. I don't get out to GB all that often, but from what I can tell at least 1/2 of the towers in the Green Bay area should have full builds by now. So speeds should definitely be on the increase as people get shifted on the optimized towers to the correct band.

 

Have you noticed any 3G holes? Or is B26 covering the gaps well?

 

mjs2011, I also want to remind you that I have the premier thread going for our market if you'd be interested in becoming a premier sponsor! Great information in there! 

I have noticed a few drops to 3G.  I can't say I've noticed it a lot in any specific area but it does happen.  

I have seen some pretty impressive speeds as well. Back on the 16th I got 59Mbs down near the airport on 172/Packerland.  I was pleasantly surprised.  I thought it had to be that Tower on Babcock because no other tower is close.  I'm still curious as to how well it will perform during a Packer game.  I will find out on Thanksgiving night!

Seems to be an outage in 54304 as all calls go to voicemail or a rapid busy signal. Near 41/Lombardi

Spoke too soon! On Lombardi and Ridge, pulling 6 down and 4 up. Somebody map that shit!

Getting small hints of it at home hear 41 and Hazelwood. D/L around .80 Meg. Nothing great but at least it's getting closer. Hopeful they fire something up around Lambeau before Sunday so some type of service is useable!

Using google maps, I estimated your distance to that tower at about 6.5 miles.  If it is anything like a tower in Milwauke, that you can get a reliable connection from about 5.5 miles away (granted the signal travels over Lake Michigan), that could be the Oneida tower.  Then again downtilt and all of those other factors for each tower are unknown to us.  How strong was the signal?

It was a hotspot so I'm not sure how to tell. Rsrp was -127

Just caught a blip of LTE on my Netgear Hotspot in the Ashwaubenon Industrial Park near Packerland and Partnership. Did the PRL update and LTE showed up.  Speeds were ok at 3.24 down and .24 up. RSRP was -127 

Is it possible this is coming from the tower in Oneida? That seems awfully far.

Just mapped Hwy 29 East towards Kewaunee and 42 North Towards Algoma on Sensorly.  It was nice to see that 4G icon light up for the first time. Got between 13-16Mbps down and 3-4Mbps up.

In Green Bay- ML15AL018 had large reels of tubing as well as six trucks on site this morning (one truck said Elexco inc. no idea who they are or what they do. ML15AL015 had large reels of tubing and a truck on site this morning as well. These are both water towers and house other carriers so I'm hoping its work for Sprint and no one else.

I noticed this same thing. Seems to happen when connected to the Airave for me. I should have a strong 3G signal when connected to the Airave, instead it's a strong 1X signal. When I leave Airave coverage, 3G pops back up. Not sure if this is related to the topic above or some other issue. I have two Airaves, one at home and one at work, same issue with both units and the iPhone 5.
