    Im not sure how accurate that is on the whole. Sprint users tend to use Sensorly way more that the other carriers. Comparing my local maps show Sprint with WAY more coverage than the other carriers. having come from Big Red a few months ago i know this is not accurate.

    You can throw the fastest and best router at anything but if you have ISP issues its all for moot. Reduce things down to the simplest form and work up from there. In all the years all my issues have been ISP related. i run mid grade older routers Dlink DIR-825 for the dual band and gigabit switch ports. I have 3, yes 3 of these linked together to provide decent coverage over my 2 story Brick house. if you can run aftermarket software such as DD-WRT I would recommend that as well. Unless your running internal gigabit file servers you don't need the most expensive router out there. Your ISP will always be your bottleneck

    Eager beaver blamed for New Mexico Internet outage Published: June 28, 2013 1:47 PM By The Associated Press (AP) -- Officials have finally identified the culprit behind a 20-hour Internet and cellphone outage last week in northern New Mexico --an eager beaver. CenturyLink spokesman David Gonzales told The Associated Press on Friday that a hungry beaver chewed through the fiber line last week. He says the biting evidence was discovered by contractors who worked to repair the outage.

    It would be cool to have a tighter zoom in. Id like to see Apple's Campus and Google's campus to see how many are using the Competitors Product

    The silver line is the Fly wire, looks like the wrap/lashing line is broken. From the size its probably fiber, AT&T and Sure West have been pulling a lot of it in the past year

    Ok since this has popped up take a look at this site. A lot of History of AT&T Microwave and Coax deployment. cool history, cutting edge stuff for the 50-60's. Cool Cool Cold War Hardened bunkers and such. Interesting reading http://long-lines.net/

    I consistently don't expect much from first line Tech Support phone staff. and I am never disapointed

    Will be interesting to see in the roll out here. CA Central Valley, I doubt anything will go live here until after 6/30 to see if they light up 800 by default on site turn ups.
  11. ddimit
    Yep, West Coast, Upper and Lower CA Central Valley, easily over 1000 sites here alone

    As a Civil War Skit, it rates right up there with Col. Angus.

    Pay the $30.00 yr for Lookout and get device/lock/wipe and tracking. Both for IOS and Android, latest release even snaps a pic of the perp who enters the wrong unlock code to many times. To me its not just the cost fo the device but the information stored on it.

    From what I have seen of the LTE Deplyoments they are using Cisco ASR Routers on site and then can definately do QOS , Shaping Policing. just depends where in the network they plan to enforce that, Wireless side or Backhaul side

    All NV towers have 1x-lte some maybe lte is not on yet. 1x handles your vocie/txt side so its important to track you from 1x side for E911 location. Data side not so much.

    Actually coming from VZW EVDO, Sprint has been an Improvment for me. There will always be people that think that their wireless should work everywhere and anywhere. Most of the blame falls on the carriers setting unresonable expectation levels. AT&T, Sprint and VZW are sitting in a car, this is their discusssion.. They just want your wad of big sweaty money lol...

    First thing i do with a new phone out of the box is it goes in a rugged case. Right now my note is in a Ballistic SG series. About $20 on Ebay This has saved my phone more than once. Plus if you sell your old phones you get top dollar becuase they look like brand new. its worth the added extra size for protection. The Note 2 would not survive a fall from any height and survive with all that glass surface area and plastic case

    the only thing that really grabbed me as something I would like, would be the IR remote control feature

    I thought the Note 2 was huge, until you have it for awhile. Problem is now there is no going back to a smaller screen.

    S3 is a lot cheaper on a certain website if you know where to search.

    http://blogs.seattle...t-then-verizon/ Most of this isn't new to anyone. But did prove one thing to me coming from a Big Red EVDO only device. They got rated the worst on speed on non LTE connections. I actually saw a speed increase coming over to Sprint. Looks like VZW is totally ignoring its EVDO Network and putting all its energy into LTE. My Avg VZW download was 100-300k and worse on the upload. Sprint 1.3-1.5 meg down and up

    thats not electrical tape. its either coax seal or a weather boot. Pretty much standard for outdoor RF connectors
