    A lot of fiber routes by me are on poles, then split off underground when they go towards towers. Unfortunately there will always be outages no matter what.

    Do you mean where vendors have ran new backhaul for sprint? Co located sites already have backhaul that sprint can most likely use.

    It makes sense if they aren't using it, but it would be feasible to get gigabit to run maybe 2 or 3 towers via microwave rather than pay for 3 300 megabit connections.
  4. strumgewr
    At that point they might as well get gigabit.

    Here's a cool video of new panels being out up, thought I'd share. These guys seem to work well. http://youtu.be/asp5nzKB8F8

    LTE advanced is supposed to increase performance at cell edge, which would help.

    Finished my first #5k this weekend. In my sleep. It was tough, but I powered through it.

    What is the clearwire 2500 LTE footprint going to be? Current WiMAX?
  9. strumgewr
    I usually don't have an issue in buildings, but in heavily wooded areas, LTE drops out and I pick up HSPA+ on 1900mhz. That's the unfortunate nature of LTE even on a lower frequency.

    I can vouch for this as well. In my area at&t has many more sites, all which have LTE than sprint has. NV deployment is ongoing in my area, no LTE from sprint yet. At&t has the densest grid where I live in Ohio.

    Just saw these new panels put up. They don't look like any at&t or verizon I've ever seen. Is this t-mobile?

    LTE advanced is actually supposed to have improved performance at cell edge. We will see. http://www.3gpp.org/lte-advanced

    1900 MHz on the loose!? Better go catch it

    This is exciting. I can't wait for them to move further south into the Akron area.

    Honestly 1x is more usable sometimes than evdo is. I think it has a lot to do with congestion. Once NV is running here, I think things will really start to look nice. I had no problem sending mms on 1x the other night. I can't say the same when my att phone was on edge, edge absolutely crawls.

    Leave it to perez to blow the game #indians

    The way I see it, sprint is in a better position for the future than at&t, at least in my area. Right now at&t and verizon are running 10x10 LTE. Verizon has AWS for more capacity, at&t only has WCS which is years away. At&t has no 850 mhz on my area, verizon has it all. They might be able to refarm some 1900, maybe.

    Right at the perkins exit on rt 8, the big lattice tower. It's on your right if you're going south. You can see the exact location if you become a sponsor.
  19. strumgewr
    In downtown akron off rt 8 there is a nv 3G complete tower, other than that I haven't seen any work in the Akron/canton area on sprint towers.
  20. strumgewr
    Of course we do . Speeds may be good now, but won't be for long as more people start using it. LTE advanced will allow for greater speeds, capacity, and better cell edge performance.
  21. strumgewr
    Does t-mo and at&t deploy RRU'S on the tower for HSPA+ at all? Or only for LTE?
  22. strumgewr
    In places like where I live in ohio, where cell sites are much further apart, I would think they would deploy 800 LTE on every site, unless they add more sites, which I don't think will happen.
  23. strumgewr
    You should definitely get better in building coverage after NV. Now in terms of LTE, you may or may not get that in buildings. Due to the more fragile air link, LTE will drop at low signal levels, even on 800 mhz. On at&t for example, I've had LTE drop a couple miles away from the tower outside, with trees inbetween me and the tower and switch the HSPA+ on 1900 mhz. If it wasn't for the increase in efficiency, capacity, and speed; LTE would seem like a downgrade from older technologies.
  24. strumgewr
    I wish the FCC would put limits on now much lower frequency spectrum carriers can own. It'd be a much more level playing field, better for the consumers. For example, I believe verizon owns 100% of the 850 mhz spectrum in my area due to the alltel buyout. Ridiculous!!

    I believe it means you've had a memory leak in Firefox and ran out of RAM. I've had this happen when I've been programming and accidentally wrote an infinite loop.
