    Network Vision/LTE - San Diego Market

    in Markets

    Posted

    That is the biggest problem with network vision as a whole, backhaul. I think if sprint knew, that backhaul would slow them down so much. They would have ordered it a lot sooner, also u have everyone upgrading to lte all at one. That doesnt help when everyone is trying to get backhaul, it is great for the companies that provide the backhaul though

     

    The fact that in San Diego, AT&T provides back-haul for itself, Verizon, T-Mobile.  It will take some time because AT&T will take its precious time.  Eventually it will be done.  Most sites in San Diego  that has Cox back-haul has LTE.

    Found another site with 2 data speed upgrades.  This one is in downtown on Ash/10th.  If someone is in downtown, please see if there is any LTE broadcasting there.  

     

    Site with 2 data speed upgrades on Pacific Highway/Ash hasn't been mapped.  Sponsor map shows 4G LTE at that site.

    New Sprint Plans...Unlimited, My Way, My All-In

    hmmmmm...... looks like this will end up being more for me in, not by much though. Currently i have the 1500 minute family plan with 4 lines and the 3000 minute family plan with 5 lines with an 18% discount on the first line of each plan, all are smartphones so before taxes and fees my total is 443.13.

     

    with these new plans, assuming i'm calculating the discount correctly it would be

     

    50+40+30+20*6 = 240
     
    30*.82*9 = 221.40
     
    for a total of $461.40 which is $18.27 more than I'm currently paying.
     
    if i add back in the taxes and fees my current total per line is $54.38, the new amount per line would be $56.54.
     
    So while it would suck that prices are going up its not enough to cause us to want to switch, i'd rather have unlimited data with the better coverage of sprint than switch to tmobile, and us-cellular would still be more per line.

     

     

    How did you get 18% discount?

    This is technically possible but not recommended. Any rep you talk to on the phone that RECOMMENDS this avenue either truly knows what they are doing and can set it up right (very,very few reps can actually do this properly since it is not a supported account configuration), or they are an idiot.

     

    Multiple minute pooling plans can cause A LOT of billing issues, especially if they use the same pooling code (i.e. same exact plan).

     

    Different plan pooling codes don't usually have that issue because it's a different coding structure to determine minute use and allotment, but it is still not recommended due to possible billing issues related to how the system operates.

     

    Thanks for the heads up!  :tu:

    What wireless carriers do Sprint employees use?

    I have seen a mix at the stores. Most use Sprint since I figured they got it for dog cheap.. A few have had ATT when I saw their phones.

     

    They get their phones for free according to a conversation I had with some of the employees at Sprint's San Diego busiest store. Some employees does have Verizon because they are part of a shared plan of someone else's account where they don't want to be paying ton of money for their own plan.  Other than that, free phone, discounted plan.

    I know some areas that are low traffic 100mbps may not be justifyable. Also some remote areas that are not microwave fed it may just not be feasible to run that capacity. And whattttttttt I hope your not paying 1400 for a 50/50 circuit. I hardly pay more than that for dedicated gigabit.

     

    That is the cost here in San Diego from AT&T and Cox.  Have delivered 50/50Mbps to several clients.  Maybe cheaper for Sprint since they ordering wholesale bulk.
