It's simple 1900 facing the Canadian boarder 800 Facing the US. 1900 will be easier to keep from jumping over into Canada (as far at least) and it'll provide just enough coverage. 800 Mhz will go as far as it possibly can in the opposite direction.

Lets hope it doesn't 'cause it's a really horrible platform. I really hope that Apple can f off and stop stifling innovation it's really sad when Apple tries to go after every company that uses Android in their products. Regardless if the reason for going after them is justified they try to kill any company that supposedly infringes on their overly vague and broad patents. I love how they go specifically after the Galaxy Nexus, which is likely to get Jelly Bean first and have a extremely superior competitive feature to their beloved Siri which his been shown to only get things right 62% of the time and responds slowly to every possible query. Google's Voice assistant seems to respond quickly and accurately every time (from the videos I've seen of it being used.) I really look forward to using it as long as Apple doesn't get to it and f it up first.

Probably Q1 next year or later but that's purely speculation. Cleveland has been moved up in the schedule for Network Vision but nothing has been confirmed.

They probably want to have a smooth LTE roll out because people love to complain. It would be nice though, But it really only takes a few seconds to either call Sprint and activate the phone on your account or go online and switch the phones out.

No it's embedded, it's an onboard version of the RUIM (Removable User Identity Module).

I would assume they keep sims internal because the phones you will be buying from sprint won't support any other LTE band classes therefore you can't use them on any other networks anyways so there's no point in having them removable. And it's also likely that they're doing this to keep users from moving sim cards from their phone to their tablet/data card assuming they buy/find one that supports sprints LTE band classes and using tons and tons of data. This could also be being done to cut costs on wasted customer support resources dealing with idiots who think they can just move LTE RUIMs from one device to another and have working CDMA voice. (There may be a work around for that I think I remember verizon setting up some ridiculous system to auth cdma with LTE RUIM which ended up going down and causing a lot of problems for their network but i'm not too sure)

Connect it to your computer and use adb logcat or download a logcat application from the Play Store. Dial something like *#*#000000#*#* and the phone should spit out the msl in logcat you may have to go into *#*#33284#*#* and enter 6 zeros to get it to show up in logcat but either of those should work.

Sprint 3G isn't too bad in this market, I regularly get about 0.30mbit/s at peak and 1.5mbit/s off peak which is more than enough for streaming audio with something like XiiaLive (shoutcast) and YouTube videos. I would hold off until network vision though because the main problem with this market is back haul not spectrum.

does this work

Or use the utility I wrote this morning http://srv.so/sprint/

That work around is quite nice especially if you want to pull a big map from gps coordinates.

Username and password should be admin/c0nf1gur3m3 list of possible combinations admin/cableroot user/user admin/c0nf1gur3m3

Doing a reset won't fix it because the password is set when it registers with the CMTS and downloads the CM boot file.

Try logging in from http://192.168.0.1/

Username: user Password: user Try that.

you need to log in, the username is admin and the password is cableroot

If you would post your signal levels and your modem model I can tell you what the problem is and what you need to do to get it fixed. You can get your signal levels from http://192.168.100.1/ you will see Signal to Noise (or SNR), Downstream, Upstream, and your modem's model number. Please report back with your findings. I'm here to help out, TWC can be a pain sometimes and their "Techs" can be complete idiots.

Don't use Sprint as a home ISP it's a shared system and with LTE you'll be sharing 37Mbit/s with everyone on the sector which in a lot of areas is about 100 people, that's about 0.37Mbit/s dedicated per device. You won't have a good time and you would just end up miss using and abusing the network. Wireless is not a good alternative to wired when available. Go to the URL below and post your signal levels. Signal to Noise or SNR, Upstream power level, Downstream power level. Post your modem model number too. http://192.168.100.1/

PayPal locked my account which has the only card I own added to it which in-turn blacklists my card until the account is unlocked. So I can't donate until the account is unlocked which will be in 2 months.

That's great! I hope they can keep up the good work and get these markets launched soon so they can move on to mine more quickly.

I would love to donate but I can't use PayPal but if Robert could make a WePay account or something similar I could donate with my card instead of having to deal with PayPal's crap.

Is there a total number of completed NV sites?

Right but it'll cost more money and take more time than it will for Sprint.

I'm not too sure, I haven't heard/read much about Verizon's LTE network but from LTE Release 9 to 10 it should just be a software upgrade, but for LTE release 8 to 10 it could potentially be hardware and that's why the other cell companies will be stuck in the past.

If they would have done it two years ago they would have had to replace every single LTE base station to be able to offer LTE Advanced service which enables MIMO on upstream. Currently they're going with LTE release 9 and doing a software upgrade to LTE release 10. They will end up coming out on top with a much better network.
