  1. Thanks. That's where I figured it would end up going. My luck, if I did that they wouldn't let me keep my current plan. I'm on the ED1500 and don't want to lose it.
  2. I would be curious about that as well. I have 4 phones whose plans are up between 5/15 and 7/15. I don't want to lease. Unfortunately, I think I'm SOL to get anything now unless I do a lease, unless what optumummind has done would somehow work for me.
  3. This article's writer has a future...writing for The Onion.
  4. I would have agreed with going toward the Nexus line until the Lollipop update turned my tablet into a paperweight this spring. Now, I'm not so sure.
  5. Haven't seen B41 at all here in Fort Myers. Have seen it in the county to the north of us, and not sure about the south toward Naples. I've been on the phone with Customer Care a couple times in the past month about how poor the LTE speeds are here. I'm lucky to get 1 up or down on B26, and I live less than 2.25 miles from 3 towers. Hopeful that it will improve soon.
  6. Thanks. Probably the areas you mention in Madison, but then may hit some of the state parks out west of the city around Mt Horeb and Dodgeville. Any recommendations?
  7. Good morning. May be looking to travel up toward Madison in the next few weeks, and was curious to know how performance is on the west side of Madison, as well as points west outside the city. From the maps, it looks like once you go west of Mt. Horeb, you're in 3G, or you're off network and roaming. Thanks in advance!
  8. To greencat's post above, do they do B26 and B41 at the same time, or are they independent of one another?
  9. I haven't seen anything for B41 yet via SignalCheck, but that doesn't mean it hasn't arrived along with B26.
  10. Had my first B26 sighting in South Fort Myers this morning. Hope that's a good sign of things to come...
  11. I'd appreciate an invite if someone has one available.
  12. Thanks. Did that. Have sent in issues before, but never have heard anything back. Is there a way to access a log of issues that have been submitted via the Sprint Zone?
  13. Was up at UTC and in that area this past weekend. SignalCheck Pro showed connection to B26, but concur with ty that the speeds were bad at best. Looking forward to the expansion of B26/B41 around SW Florida, and hope they are just working the kinks out on that site.
  14. Great news for the Southeast side of South Florida. Looking forward to seeing B26 in Lee and Collier counties on the Southwest side!
  15. I don't think so. I went back and looked at the sponsor maps and it shows which ones have 3g/4g, and which ones also have 3g/1X800 and 3g/1X800/4g. There isn't anything about LTE 800. Once you cross over Charlotte Harbor, there are five sites that have been noted as 1X800 down to Naples. Agree totally about the burden on the network once the snowbirds come back to roost for the winter. Let's hope they keep working to get things better sooner rather than later.
  16. Am I correct that there isn't really a schedule per se that lists when markets/locations will receive Band 26/41 upgrades? I am hoping that will help with some of the issues that we've been seeing. Also, as it pertains to 1X800, IIRC, there are only about 5 towers that have been noted as live with it in the Naples/Fort Myers area. Lots more to go, I would think.
  17. I have noticed this as well in areas throughout the city. Places where I was receiving LTE earlier in the spring are now getting 3g. However, I have noticed that I am now getting sporadic LTE on the second floor of my house, which sometimes kicks me off of my Airave. Hopefully Band 26 will be coming soon. Have seen really good speeds in Charlotte county with it.
  18. How does one disable a specific band on the Galaxy S5? Also, here is a screenshot of 1X800. I get it sporadically here at work. Will keep my eyes open elsewhere.
  19. I use the Sprint website. According to that, I sit almost exactly in between two towers, with a third off to my northwest. At my house I had to get an Airave because I couldn't send a text or place a call from my first floor.
  20. I have actually been getting sporadic 1X800 service. When I think to, I will get a screen shot and pass it along. I thought that 1X800 was only for voice, and Band 26/41 would be the additions for LTE as we move to Spark. But, I could be wrong.
  21. Thanks. Would there be a timeline on that, or will that just be similar to when LTE was originally going live in that we would need to Speedtest and look at Engineering screens until the Spark market is officially announced?
  22. Has anyone in this market (especially the Fort Myers area) noticed any performance degradation over the past month or so? I thought it might be quirks with the S5 after it's update, but my son said he has noticed it on his Note 2 as well. I'm now getting 3g service where I was consistently getting LTE service before.
