Sprint is executing much more quickly on the marketing side.  However they are in a hyper-competitive arena.  The immediate litmus test is whether they can start stealing non-data hog customers from T-Mobile. 

 

CAx3 small cells/upgraded Clear sites are the key.  Will the new legal counsel be able to reach an acceptable resolution in the judge-shopped WiMAX case?  It is most important that they just more forward -- with or without these frequencies.

 

Sprint is making much better use of its existing frequencies for LTE 1900 in many markets with refarming CDMA.  A few markets may have 20x20 1900 LTE sites given spectrum purchases awaiting FCC approval.  15x15 may also appear along with more 10x10 and second carrier 5x5.  Sprint now appears to be focused on bandwidth needed per site rather than band coverage, which I see as operating with more business acumen.

 

Hopefully they are able to complete 1x800 and B26 LTE 800 issues -- even if they must use B26 LTE 800 3x3.

The top post will be updated only periodically now. Additional LTE carriers are no longer big news.

Additional LTE carriers are quite important to those who benefit and do encourage member participation. Point taken that they not as unique. However just the process of looking for them may result in finding items like 3x3 b26 LTE or 15x15 or 20x20 b25 LTE, or even third carrier b41 and beyond.

Seems like on the last one, these fields shouldn't be NULL.

Agree that last ones should not be null. Strikes me that it may need reprovisioning or reactivation. Point that out to customer service, or someone knowledgeable on this may reply.

What bands does nTelos use?

 

Sent from my N9518 using Tapatalk

 

Others in this thread will know exactly. 

 

Besides being licensed for the three above, they are also licensed for AWS (1710-1755 MHz and 2110-2155 MHz - band 10 I think) in at least part of their possible operating area.  Licensed does not mean used, but is rather the first step (through purchase or lease approved with FCC).  Subsets of the above bands are also possible: 2 for band 25, 5 for band 26, 38 for band 41.

What is the best band priority for LTE connection? Mine is currently:

25

26

41

2

4

5

12

In that order.

The network can always override your choices, but often does not. For everyday use with Sprint, I keep mine at b41 then b25 then b26 plus the others. If you are hunting, eliminate all bands except the one you want. Put any other bands nTelos uses above those three.

Oh no... They've gotten to you too. Ads everywhere. [emoji38]

Yup: websites, TV, radio, church. The alternative is subscriptions or [emoji33] taxes [emoji6]

Noticed this morning on my account that there was a LG G4 $50 Credit. Anyone else receive anything like this on their account?

 

 

Not on mine, but then I have have nine more days on billing cycle.  Did you do the LG G4 recall or report any issues?

Just gave $30, so it is down to $90 or less to be fully funded.

 

edit: Are these donations tax deducible if you itemize? (I think so, but not certain)

Wonder how much is left to go?

Your plan likely has 300MB limit per line for roaming versus 100MB with current plans, plus phone subsidies every two years per line.

I can connect in NY, PA, and North OH...

Ok, you should be good, assuming these connections were very recent.

 

Edit: I have often had issues where hunting in an emerging LTE area caused problems later. A reboot was all that was required to fix it.

Like I said, Boost must not care. I had Sprint up until February, was able to connect with them, not now...

I would reload profiles, prl, and reboot. Your phone could be having issues.

I would also try the signal detector app:

I had connected to US Cellular LTE at Black River Falls WI this summer, but did not authenticate.  (I-94 next to WI-54)

Not sure if Huntington has it... Nobody here can even get US Cellular. I tried to activate one for my sister last month.

 added map outtake to US Cellular post.  Crosshatched areas are Sprint.  Same Color without crosshatches is US Cellular LTE.where you might get LTE Roaming.

Be on the lookout for LTE roaming on US Cellular, which I know is in your area.  http://s4gru.com/ind...nt-lte-roaming/

 

U.S. Cellular coverage map now shows LTE roaming, appears to be Sprint's network [Reported first on https://www.reddit.com/r/sprint by petarmarinov37 with this image: http://imgur.com/KwCe3Co]     It does match the Sprint coverage map in Ohio, specially the unique coverage in Crooksville OH and many other places.
