Does this work? https://www.dropbox.com/s/xkql6elpul2u3je/Screenshot_2012-10-27-13-31-41.png

Union Square and the rest of Lower Manhattan are 3G heaven. And this is mid day so everyone is one their phone. Isn't NV a blessing. https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/Speed%20Tests/Screenshot_2012-10-27-13-31-41.png?w=b682313a

It'll probably be Queens before Brooklyn. It seems like it is working its way down. I find it funny how no one has mentioned Staten Island yet.
-
I certainly agree. I ride the B46 home everyday from Eastern Parkway/Utica Avenue train station to Avenue L and up by the train station slow speeds are a thing of the past. As well as in south eastern Brooklyn, Flatlands in particular. However, everywhere in between, especially in poorer neighborhoods, speeds are absolutely abysmal. By my house I get upwards of 1.3 Mbps and during my trip on the bus I can see it go as low as 20Kbps. But as we all know, it will get better and that's all that matter for now.

it's getting heated. We need comic relief from AJ!!!
-
That is not quite true being that I know Network Vision sights in Brooklyn that are up and no one I know is connecting to LTE In the area.

Exactly as our friend AndyNYC stated, it will just be a prelaunch. Although Chicago is near 50% complete, most of the Chicago sites are in the suburbs. Little to none are in the actual city of Chicago. Although the 4G will only be usable for 5 minutes, over time, you'll see that amount of time increase to the point where the 4G will blanket most of the city and you won't have a problem anymore. I understand that announcing and it isn't citywide will make customers angry, but I think it will be even worse for them to hold out longer on an announcement for the largest and arguably, most important city for Sprint.
-
I feel like so many NV towers are simply being blocked. For most of the initial launch markets 20% or less was completed. NV production in the city is really starting to speed up and no one said it will be announced day 1. There are 30 days in November. You never know, maybe the tower you are connected to will have 4G.
-
Official launch is supposed to be next month but as for where we will see LTE. I am not sure.
-
It's not how much space they cover, as much as tower density. There are so many towers that your phone will constantly switch, and on top of that, you are surrounded by brick and metal structures which will kill that connection. In my experience much of Brooklyn has usable service.
-
I guess it depends on where in 11234 because I have posted several speedtests where I get over 1mbps. I haven't seen a speed lower than 800kbps in a long time. At least when I am outside.
-
Yeah. Definitely 11234. That's where I'm from. But 3G hasn't been a problem for me except at home. I am directly between the edge of two towers so my phone will switch from 2bars to one bar when I am at home. But then again, that's why I have an Airave.

Seems like Sprint may outperform the #1 U.S. carrier in the #1 city in the U.S.

http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2410861,00.asp You guys and gals, a PCMag author tested the LTE in the Bronx.
-
LOL. I was at 23rd and 8th yesterday waiting for the bus. I didn't run a speedtest but I guess next time I am there I will!
-
Verizon LTE when it first arrived was around 17Mbps. My friend who own an iPhone 5 now gets around 5mbps on his iPhone 5 and when the network is unloaded he gets 30Mbps.
-
Is it just me or are the New York speeds some of the fastest that have been posted so far?
-
Can towers be programmed to certain distances because where I live, according to network.sprint.com the tower that I am.most likely connected to is about 5 blocks away yet when I am indoors I still get a 1bar signal. -
OmgOmgOmg.

Now that T-Mobile is close to closing a deal with Metro PCS what does that mean for Sprint. Will they have to purchase U.S Cellular or could they still buy out T-Mobile?
-
I was reading Sprint Community Forums and someone sent an email to Sprint in which he recoeved a response that the tech team is working on an update to connect to LTE better. http://community.sprint.com/baw/message/480919
-
Thanks so much. I changed the server ans speeds instantly jumped past 1mbps.
-
One more question and then I am done, I swear! When these towers are being upgraded does network performance go down? On all of these eHRPD towers I used to get pings in the low one hundreds and even lower. Now I am getting pings in the 400's and 500's and speeds more similar to 1x than Evdo.
