First of all WiFi is not deployed on 3.5GHz. The 5GHz one will have to be shared with WiFi.

It is low power FCC part 15 unlicensed spectrum which means the same power levels as your typical Wi-Fi

Not to mention that the other three are getting ready to take advantage of shared spectrum in the 3.5 and 5GHz using LTE-U or LAA.

You mean the unlicensed low power same as you get out of your Wi-Fi spectrum

I guess you didn't read the part of where not having enough spectrum will have a bad effect on the network slowing down with a sudden influx of users. Basically just like cable when everyone in the neighborhood fires up the computer and it slows to a crawl.

But they aren't handicapped by spectrum. Where Verizon and next T-Mobile are.

So what I see is, you guys want Sprint to lower it's rate plans while increasing money to network buildout, and you want it done by by summer no later. Oh and while they at it give away free things. Make you guys even more spoiled brat arm chair CEO's and when they haven't done what you guys want, find someone else that will? I guess most of the current generation of people are mostly give me what I want or else, I I'll complain, bad mouth, never feel satisfied, and try to preach orders to a company you don't even work for. It's just like the company I work for too.

Saw, just shut up about spectrum and fix your goddamn network!

And I like to ask you what the hell do you know about frequency and spectrum engineering, and if your so smart about things instead of being some armchair CEO, why aren't working that field.

Yep, and a few wireless carriers with tons of spectrum capacity on a publicly run network with macro and small cells everywhere, giving people over 100 mbps in times of congestion. Everyone has their own opinion and the right to it, as does the person you attacked for their opinion on the south, which they have the right to.

Hate to be the bringer of bad news, but the government owns the spectrum, you have to pay for license to use it.

 

While some don't, I'm granted a license renewable every 10 years that covers certain frequencies right into 300 ghz

Says who? There is no universal definition of the regions of the US. I consider Virginia to be part of the southeast, and definitely part of the South. (I note that Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson, who I would argue help to define the South, both were/are based in Virginia.)

Virginia is part of the Mid- even though it is south of the Mason Dixon line.

Well looks like Sprint won there case against Time Warner and Comcast is next, Vonnage settled for $80 million a while ago.

The reason why I said thatT is because I'm still on the unlimited $70 a month plan with 3gb of hotspot which has no throttle provisions in which I'm not going to switch everytime some new plan comes out. Makes no sense. Look at prices from a single line of service point of view.

Root Metrics wouldn't be affected as I understand they conduct their own tests, not crowdsourced data. However, customer driven data might be affected, but it should still show strong reliability. One of Sprint's biggest problems is the inconsistency of the data speed. Calling is wonderful for the most part, but it isn't 2000 anymore. They have also lost their advantage of being the cheapest (for continuing customers). It would also be nice to finally have simultaneous voice and data, something I have long said what is the point. But recently being on a conference call in a building with no wifi, I could not receive an email that was sent during the call for the call. If I am going to pay the same amount of money to Sprint as I would to Verizon, why wouldn't I switch to the number one network with voLTE, 10GB hotspot, etc? This article sums up my feels pretty well: http://www.tomsguide.com/us/sprint-vs-verizon-network-ads,news-22772.html

Look at it on a single line between the 4 and see who is cheaper, also big stink going on that T-Mobile jack there sim card price from $15 to $25.

Those that don't learn from the past, are doomed to repeat it. That includes arm chair CEO 's

If I were making that call I'd reverse Verizon out of the deal.

They got the price down because all the problems yahoo had with it being hacked, they still going thru with the deal. It was in the news last week

 

Sent from my 2PYB2 using Tapatalk

They are, yahoo

 

Sent from my 2PYB2 using Tapatalk

Verizon is going to have to do a whole lot of cleaning up on yahoo after the deal is final, I wonder how much that is going to cost.

And to add insult to injury, AT&T is going to throttle Cricket users after 22gb now

You can look forward to John blowing his top on twitter and going full ballistic. Can look forward to the root metrics denouncement on twitter soon.

Be careful what you wish for, it will come back and smack you in the face like a Mack truck.

Do a profile update, it might help. Because I have it on my One A9 that updated last week to Nougat.

 

Sent from my 2PQ93 using Tapatalk

Reported on Android Authority that Nougat is rolling out now for the HTC 10 on Sprint, should be about 1.3gb, on my One A9 it was 1.08gb

Why should they be? Existing customers get the shaft once again. Sprint should re-brand as Open Mobile at this point.

Some are never happy, no matter what.

You know what's crazy depressing? Everyone here is complaining at not getting a break as an existing customer, where Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T all came out with newer plans which the VAST MAJORITY of their base switched to already. Thus the newer offers work better for them because they are already on higher plans.

 

No one seems to make an apples to apples comparison, just moving goal posts.

Current customers are leaving.

 

This isn't about new customers not joining... Sprint has been getting positive Net Adds from promos/deals targeted at new customers.

 

This is about what's not being done to keep current customers.... and we haven't seen it yet. That's the problem, and this needs to be shored up quickly. This isn't knee jerk or reactionary.

Yes, being reactionary doing what Verizon wants them to do. Getting you trapped into what you thought was a good thing and then later comes the first bill, sticker shock sets in. Taxes, fees, surcharges, line credits not showing up for 2 to 3 billing cycles and they have you right where they want you

Sometimes you can't match a opponent blow for blow. Sometimes you have to sit back and take it until the right opportunity arises and go in for the strike, have to be strategic instead of being reactionary like some of you people are suggesting. Some of you claiming you been with Sprint a long time. I've got twice the time then most here. Haven't even once considered going somewhere else because they have the faster network. Worked thru my issues with network vision. Tried WiMAX when every one else was on 2g and 3g. Had my NexTel run.

 

Some of you want things to happen overnight, well guess what. A good plan doesn't happen overnight, not does it get telegraphed so that the competition will know whats coming up and can counter it. Just like no one saw what Verizon just released on 2/13 and now everyone is being reactionary except AT&T who hasn't said or done a thing. That is the approach Sprint should take.

What did Hesse do that threw everyone in a tissy and everyone said that he needed to go because people weren't getting it any more. You remember the premium freebies. That went bye bye under Hesse. Guess what people said when Hesse did that. The exact thing you broken records are saying now. Hate to say this but this is start to become like another site for which I don't speak of but some people are starting to sound like those dolts.
