Okay, I grabbed some screen shots from my commute tonight. Lte and 800 signal from East Washington and 1st Ave. Second lte screen surprised me. Whitney way and old Sauk rd
-
I am all for complete projects, but I would hope that Sprint would also look at the horrible coverage in Madison and start turning on the sites that are complete. I know, it's a dream, but it would be nice to be able to use my phone outside of my house.....
-
I went walking around during my lunch today. No work going on at the Tokey Blvd site, and network speeds are back to 0.55 Mbps down, and 0.45 Mbps up. I have not seen work in the Tokey site since late Aug. Hope they did not forget about that site...
-
Still nothing in the research park area of Madison. Pretty hard to see anything with the thick fog this morning, but data speeds are in the low 100 mbits
-
I hate to say this, but nothing to report on the West side of Madison (research park area). At least I can get a sprint signal (last week was horrible)! Hopefully I will see something during my lunch walk, if so, I will try and snap some pictures.
-
Well, lets hope Sprint is working on the towers today. Currently at work, and I have 1 RT signal, not even 3g :/ I remember reading on this site that usually when that happens, LTE fires up.....hope that's the case..
-
First of all, thank you Robert for clearing things up! Now, onto the pictures! Well, that makes sense why there's NO signal when I drove in this morning. I was on East Washington last night (coming from and going to MATC) and I was roaming the entire time. Someone mentioned that it's the hardware push getting things finished up before they techs break out the ice fishing gear....lets hope that' the case......
-
Well, there was nothing on 12/18 and Seminole Hwy today (10/23). I was roaming on the US Cellular network. I do have a faint 3g signal at work (Whitney Way), but if I move around the building, I go back to roaming. I don't know if this is a good sign or not. Come to think about it, my service was pretty much unusable today (even in Sun Prairie). I was roaming pretty much the entire drive in. Hope that means they are getting the last bit of work done to flip the switch for LTE.
-
I got 2.5 mbps down and 1 mbps up this morning. Now that more people are on the network, it's back to 0.75 mbps down and 0.07 mbps up. This makes me a said panda
-
The 3g signal is way better this morning on the west side of Madison. I know that really does not matter for LTE, but maybe Sprint is ramping up the testing.
-
I was surprised last night when I was driving on East Washington and my phone flipped over to LTE by Ella's Deli. I had the signal for a few seconds, but that is at least promising. The signal the rest of the way out of Madison on East Washington was normal though (no signal). Hopefully that is a sign that the towers are being worked on and Sprint my actually flip the switch soon.
-
I did not take any pictures (I was driving around for work). I did not get out to High Point road today. I will be out that way tomorrow and can check my phone then. There was nothing going on in the Hilldale area (I was at the radio shack on University and had horrible 1x signal (which switched to roaming). Verona road and 12/18 has nothing for a signal (still), and the signal is still horrible in the research park area. I was on the East side of Madison yesterday (the sprint store) and I was still roaming there.
-
I drove around the west side/near west side today. Nothing being done, no increase in signal, so it looks like no luck on the west side. I'm rather shocked that Sprint did not fire up the tower on Tokay Blvd. That one has been done for awhile now, and still nothing.
-
Well, I don't know what is going on today, but I am not getting any data or signal on the west side of Madison. I called into Sprint to find out, and according to the Cust. Care manager, he does not even see a tower that's on Tokey Blvd or any towers on the West side. According to what they are seeing, everything is fine. How can this be when that tower has been a Sprint tower for years?
-
I just checked the area around Tokey Rd, and still nothing for LTE. I hope Sprint hurries up and flips the switch on..

My Speedtest result for Sprint (CDMA - eHRPD) : 0.00 Mb/s (download) & 0.00 Mb/s (upload) via #sensorly @sprintcare http://t.co/29BwDrNHL0

Holy suprise for my commute this morning. I picked up LTE at the Badger interchange heading south on 90/94-39. Kept the signal until ~2 miles from the beltline exit. The signal was pretty strong...couldn't do a speedtest or anything because I was making a phone call....off course, as soon as I got onto the beltline, I went to 1RTT for signal strength....but..maybe the towers on the East side of Madison next to the interstate are finally in testing mode.....
-
I was in the Rapids area today, and I did not see anything... I'm currently in the Merrill area, and I get the random shot of LTE and then back to 3g, which is huge...I was up here last weekend, and I did not see anything....today, I was able to hold LTE for about 30 minutes...
-
I'm with Dequardo also. The East side of Madison is horrible...I drive through there all the time, and I don't see any work in the area. There's nothing around the Beltline...
-
Well, you have to go with the second option, service is just that bad. My wife goes to school at MATC, and most of the time, she can't use her phone to make calls or send a text...I send messages to @sprintcare pretty much every day because of it.
-
I wonder if Sprint is working on stuff on the East side of Madison. I had LTE in Sun Prairie, but no horrible 3g (speeds around 200). Usually when I see speeds like that, work is being done on the towers. Anyone have the skinny?
-
Those ropes are most likely for the drivers that are stuck on the beltline because of the construction Hopefully they start working on that tower, and start turning on other towers. My phone was unusable last night when I was stuck on the betline going east by Verona Road.
