  1. On 84 west right after exit 14 the tower closet to the highway had a crane last two days. They put new pannels on it today. I saw them as i drove by. I cant wait for these to go live. I know it needs fiber ran to the tower still.
  2. Depending on the provider and how many fiber counts. Its pretty thin usally about the thickness of RG-11 Coax cable. That may seem thick but most of that is protection of the fiber its self. Yes the orange pvc is usally the new conduit they use a machine to put it underground than use a rope to pull fiber through.
  3. i have an s2 due for an upgrade in 5 days! Im waiting for the s4. The s3 is not to much differ except sbeam and lte.
  4. scub what town do you live in? i live in southern newhaven county. Im due for a new phone but im waiting till the s4 is coming out i have a s2 so i wont notice any of this
  5. This is sweet!!! THere are two towers being worked on by my house. Have cranes and guys climbing. I hope they get non city areas first unlike Wimax is in waterbury, hartford and places like that.
  6. There are currently two out of three towers close to my house being worked on. They have cranes and guys hauling stuff to the top. I was wondering if this indeed is sprint. 214 Russian Village Road and other is 1432 Old Waterbury Rd. Southbury CT 06488
  7. Yea ct is still in devlopment. There were people climbing my tower today service was crappy too. I felt bad for him its windy out. But Many towers dont have fiber ran to them yet. No more crappy T1 lines thats why your 3g is so slow. Its only 1.5mbps. My cable company is doing the fiber to the towers in this area
  8. Business class cable can get fiber optics. I work for a cable provider and we supply fiber to businesses and cell towers
  9. I know ct is being worked on. i work for a cable company we supply the backhaul via fiber. Im sure other cable companys do the same
  10. The back haul is fiber. My local cable company ran fiber for verizon but has lots of let over pairs that there using fir sprint. Or running fiber from the closest fiber splice
  11. In there devolpment they need to add more towers buy my house and in general areas. Theres three towers in my area. One is lower sectoion of a valley that is were sprints is of course. One is at a high school on other side of valley on top of it. Last one is at town dump also up high. Where i live i fall in a dead spot and that airave thing is junk. But anyways i really hope they add new towers lte is not going to help dead spots. When att has full bars and verizon has 3. In my old town there where two towers one on highway side and other, on other side of the hill. Both have att and verizon the highway had sprint. So if you go on the other side your in a dead spot lol. I dont understand why verizon and att took off unlimted data. There have fiber optic cables with the local cable companys wich is a business account and get unlimted data because there a business. Then charge people for data thats a joke
  12. So one tower in town is offline. Its a dead spot use to have full service. Now im roaming
  13. Verizon is launching lte in my town. My work phone says 4glte never did before.
  14. What do the quad pole antennas look like. They nust put new ones up near my house
  15. They are Definitely working on it. Ill say that much launch date is a while. But at least most or every tower will get it. Unle the wimax that cities got and no where else.
  16. Well they have to run fiber to all the towers. I heard on another post that there's ones ready to go. Just not activated.
  17. Sprint is working in ct. I can tell you that lol. I have seen alot of fiber enclosures.
  18. Speaking Alcatel lucent i saw a bunch in newtown. I notced a newer wimax in seymor. What do the new panels look like. I now wimax us longer then 3g
  19. do you know where the completed towers are? I have a epic 4g touch due for an upgrade but i dont wanna loose 4g. I noticed a speed increase in wimax i get on average 12 down and almost 2 up. Also for nextel towers it says. remove 12iDEN antennas; install 3 WiMAX antennas and microwave dish? Are they still doing Wimax?
  20. new milford- replace 6 existing CDMA antennas with 3 quad pole antennas for LTE Southbury- replace 6 existing CDMA antennas with 3 quad pole antennas for LTE Newtown- replace 6 existing CDMA antennas with 3 quad pole antennas for LTE bethlehem- replace 12 existing antennas with 3 dual band antennas but also says 4G/LTE upgrade also Trumble, woodbury. Will these towers be active in near future? Are they just doing one tower in every town. I saw 12 existing antennas with 3 dual band antennas but next to it says 4G/LTE upgrade. So is that true for all the dual ban replacments?
  21. I Have been doing some searching so far i noticed that newtown and southbury will be " replace 6 existing CDMA antennas with 3 quad pole antennas for LTE". I have a galaxy s2 but i will be waiting till its fully launched. And the release of the S4. Also so 4g Wimax towers will be taken down per http://www.ct.gov/csc/cwp/view.asp?a=895&Q=248312&cscNav=|
