There's apparently a big difference between what Android devices and an iPhone 5S see with regard to the various LTE bands. I've a 6 plus on order which is supposedly enabled with more LTE frequencies, i.e. Sprint Spark capable.

Thanks for the reply.

 

I should clarify that at each of the stores, I would notice that on rare occasion a phone would pick up a single bar of LTE signal. That is not true in Lakewood where I work. Is this an indicator that LTE is in fact turned on for that area, but just not optimized or tuned yet?

 

Again, not entirely sure how much I can expect it to improve. Hmm.

I live in Lakewood and have yet to see any LTE except Green Mountain in limited areas and occasionally along 285. In fact I was on Kipling south of Alameda today and had 1x data. Not even Pandora could work with that. It's usually 3G along that route so I'm taking that as progress that changes are being made on that main thoroughfare. I've been on this forum for over a year following the progress and would otherwise be agitating at work for a different carrier. It would appear that Lakewood will be the last neighborhood in the last major metro area to receive Sprint Spark.

Picked up LTE out by Morrison Rd and Bear Creek Blvd yesterday for the first time (iPhone 5S, so unforced)

Absent data coverage on Hampden/285 from Sheridan to Kipling and then up Kipling to Morrison this afternoon. I've always had decent coverage there previously.

Colorado Mills, specifically the Caribou coffee shop. First LTE I've seen inside the I-70/C-470 beltway.

Putting my modem into bridge mode helped me when my Airave kept going offline despite everything else being online. Google how to if interested - it's what I did and I don't remember the how at this point.
