  1. 1280 West is where I am at as well. I had been getting signal consistently since the market launch in July, but it disappeared late October for a week or two which is what led me to inquire here if anyone else was experiencing the same. As expected from Roberts’s reply, the signal came back last week mid-week and is a bit stronger now. I am seeing ~-95 to ~-105 on average based on the field trial menu which is resulting in 4mbps-10mbps downloads depending on how deep into the building I am. I see with the new weekly update on the sponsor map a tower was added directly across 75 from the building about 300ft away. I would almost expect a stronger signal as I am directly facing the tower on the west side of the building and even outside on the balcony it maxes at ~-95. With other towers about the same distance I have seen as good as -75 signal and 32mbps downloads. Of course the signal at home doesn’t really matter too much with Wi-Fi available. Does anyone know if this is the normal signal range for being ~300ft away?
  2. Great thank you for the information. I was hoping it was a positive sign for the area and not a tower taken back offline. There really has not been any towers added since the first week or two of launch in the midtown area so looking forward to another tower and a little better coverage. Based on the sponsor maps; I believe I was connecting to AT03XC069 about 2mi away, but directly in line of sight of my living room windows before. This would seem that your downtilt suggestion would make perfect sense. Looking at the map again it looks like tower AT03XC675 is now listed as accepted and is less than 500ft from my building. Maybe they are working on getting the signal from it live. I will report back if I see any new signal, and thanks for all the hard work on these forms.
  3. Has anyone else lost 4g LTE signal in Midtown Atlanta? I live 15 stories up in a high rise at the corner of the 17th street bridge and have had weak LTE (110-120 signal and 2-6mbps down) service since day 1 of the market launch. I have recently (last week or so) completely lost signal even with the LTE only setting enabled which would always pick up signal before. I am wondering if they took a tower down or if something has changed with my EVO4G LTE which is rooted running mean rom 5.7. I was running meanROM 4.8 and the loss of signal happened about when I upgraded to 5.0. Clean flashing 5.7 yesterday didn't change anything.
