I had predicted 88k back on September 23rd, based on their public statements. My guess is they fell short on their 10k site rural expansion, but they could have cut more Sprint sites.

Starry has not been running ads for a long time, Word of mouth/social media was likely taking too long given their dire straights.

During the same time as this AT&T has expanded their fiber footprint, especially to large condos. T-Mobile home internet would also be a factor. Seems harder to get Verizon WISP than T-Mobile thus may not have been a factor. AEP must have seen it as hopeless otherwise they could have taken it over.

For those using Verizon and/or AT&T networks, the Samsung Band Selector app now says it has a workaround to all it to work (was firmware disabled in June 2022)

Perhaps a status page is needed.

S22+ system update applied. Sent diag for nsa not show n41. Counter on screen was showing significantly higher number than web upload.

8th breach in 5 years.

AT&T has typically gone with DSS, so wouldn't going NR for the 10x10 be a change in strategy? (They might have a few iirc, but cellmapper.net appears to be down since I can't login.)

The other advantage of Verizon is you could use bridge mode on some of their devices, which is great for corporate style VPNs using IPv4. Unfortunately they have been eliminating some of this.

My peak speeds have dropped as well, even at 3 to 5am. I assume this is PCs downloading things like Microsoft and antivirus updates over home internet.

https://www.mobileworldlive.com/featured-content/top-three/starry-internet-cuts-another-100-jobs/ 25% of remaing workers cut. Line of credit canceled. Sounds like a zombie corporation at best. Sigh. Still hoping for a sale so the spectrum gets used.

https://www.fiercewireless.com/tech/t-mobiles-5g-network-gets-capacity-boost-mu-mimo-report It sounds like the T-Mobile Home Internet is forcing them to change the TD down up ratio to favor more download speed. Yet another reason for n25. Wonder if some of these advanced features will require a s23? Sometimes lately I have noticed my n41 SA gets stuck (no download) despite good signal. If I switch to wi-fi and the back a few minutes later it is fine again. Any one else noticing this?

https://www.fiercewireless.com/5g/dishs-prepaid-losses-grow-q4-ahead-infinite-postpaid-launch Personally not certain about postpaid for Dish. They have not shown they can execute prepaid yet. Postpaid customers typically have high expectations.

I added another diag on s22+factory unlocked n38 issue. I lasts for a short period of time. Hopefully got it in this diag.

For SEC filing for raising funds: DISH Network also announced that, as of December 31, 2022, it had started construction on over 15,000 5G sites, which, if completed, are capable of providing broadband coverage to over 60% of the U.S. population. Construction starts are continuing at a rate of approximately 1,000 5G sites per month

I think the whole phone issue has them flummoxed. VoNR likely still not working properly and almost zero interest by phone makers to add n70. Would have thought a lower tier phone brand would have a phone with all their bands and VoNR. Hopefully they will shed some light in their next quarterly report. All focus might just be on their n71 rollout. 70% of the population must be covered by June 14. Edit: US Cellular puts reliable VoNR at two years away. https://www.fiercewireless.com/tech/uscellular-sees-no-rush-deploy-5g-voice

https://www.fiercewireless.com/wireless/dish-raise-another-500m-pay-5g-network Wonder what their burn rate is.

In case you don't have one, I keep an iPhone for the sole purpose of the American Tower app which gives their sites along with a few details such as height and lat long. I can share some sites for all of you to look at if needed. Just let me know the area and I will get back to you within a few days typically.

Testing the dual sim on a s22+ unlocked, fully patched. Suggestion #1: instead of [2] on the right for the second sim, use 2) or #2 on the left, which should generate less confusion. Glitches observed: 1) Normally see n41 for T-Mobile, but rarely see n38. 2) Sometimes seeing a third line which is either my #2 Verizion repeated, or less common, my #1 sim repeated in #2 slot with the real #2 below it. Also possible this happens when the #2 sim band changes. *** I likely captured some of the above two in a diag I sent. 3) Sitting in one spot, my Verizon band changed, yet my record count stayed at one. Verfied by uploading which also showed only one. Should have been at least three imo: T-Mobile n41 (maybe n38), Verizon b5, Verizon b13. Wifi shows up fine with two carriers listed. All of this is on a phone where I have limited access. My own s21 ultra dual sim phone is held up by T-Mobile and US Mobile in terms of getting esim working. When my T-Mobile account gets migrated off Sprint billing it finally should work.

My two cents: The timestamp at the top fits nicely with the IP address, otherwise the location accuracy/timestamp overwrite the IP address. Maybe just have the second timestamp with the second SIM which should also make programming easier.

The carriers typically don't own their own sites anymore but rather lease space from tower management companies like Crown Castle or American Tower. However these companies will build new sites if desired for carriers, but with permit and construction time and costs, that is much less frequent these days. Much more common to use an existing tower. Sharing is typically no problem The tower management companies have lots of data on their clients preferences, thus will often build speculative towers so the carriers can move quicker.

Hearing rumors of a Rainbow SIM: Any confirmations?

Samsung tweet today: .@Samsung welcomed @dishwireless to its Headquarters in Suwon 🇰🇷 to discuss its #5G partnership providing cloud-native #vRAN and #OpenRAN radio solutions for #DISHwireless’ nationwide #5Gnetwork rollout. #CloudRAN Dosh followed up with a picture and list of all their people there. It would be lovely if they could get Samsung to support n70 in their phones as part of an antenna MIMO deal.
