  1. Happen to run a speed test?

    Unfortunately I didn't. Sounds like there was better coverage around 78th and Dodge as I see stronger signals there from what I picked up. Hopefully they can get 72nd and Pacific going on 4G as their 3G doesn't work for my device there. It shows signal but no data works (or VERY VERY slow to the point where everything times out).

  2. It scans much more frequent than that, and will usually pick up LTE if you are in range and there is no active data session. That's the key part. The LTE Discovery app actually cycles your phone's data connection for you so long as you aren't connected to LTE. Running that alongside Sensorly makes for great LTE detection. 

     

    That would probably be why I was having problems getting certain 4G towers to reconnect downtown. I was running Sensorly the entire trip.

  3. Maybe somebody can assist me with understanding this but around 2AM this morning I took a drive around Bennington and downtown Omaha with Sensorly. I had 4G for a second around Saddle creek and Cumming Street. That I took for "accidentally" getting that signal even though when I re-drove that street and surrounding streets I couldn't get it again. That isn't my question. When I went downtown I got spotty 4G in some areas such as 15th and Howard. My speeds were about 1.62 Mbps down and 0.49 Mbps up which is nowhere near the 3.97 Mbps down and 7.34 up that I got in Bellevue Sunday morning around 4:30AM (I didn't have Sensorly turned on on Sunday as I didn't know about the app). My question is why is it that when I leave the 4G coverage by going around the block and coming back that I can no longer connect to the 4G tower. Are they blocking access after someone connects to the tower? This happened all night when I hit 3x4G areas.
