M2M build time; new Raspberry Pi3b+ came in today! AC wifi, Bluetooth 4.2 and low power. Ethernet still runs over the USB interface so tops at 330 but better than the 100 fast on previous builds. I have to plug it in to my M.2 LTE radio to see if I can get top speeds. We have one Triband antenna site (total D: ) in our CMA that has progressively improved from just a few days ago to my first 100+ test evAr! on the n6P, and in our market. What are other users machine to machine or um, IoT projects and what are your results on the Sprint network? I have a few locations running these for connectivity, security and A/V operations over cellular and/or load balanced DOCSIS 2.0 with some edge routers, one location has fiber as main, a couple are all LTE/WIFI. Band 41 is new and brave here market wide, but great where it is so we use a mix of carriers. What are your experiences with plans? I simply purchase as many lines as I need and do the work to make them work with whatever network works best where I have to setup and do my work. I have seen some low power/low data plans for battery devices and such, seems like a way to prime subscribers, but they can just keep selling me UDP's and we are all happy. Any one use the Magic Box to help power projects? I have seen Boxes relay to hotspots, we made one directional beam from yagis, ductwork and punished a 2.5 wave through a forest for LTE push to talk between 4 users. Super users could attach apps to an LTE radio or use a phone to open doors or kick on a camera! Imagine if Gramma rolls in and Her Chair meets her at the door when her mac id hits your load balancing with the magic box? You just won the family picnic son. I tore mine down (like a dick, don't do this) put it in the car, in our attic, on a pole, and next week in the air. What do your projects work towards? Long time listeners will note LTE connectivity is our main bag here in the not so sticks, we like some netsec, and putting in the time will yield a device that is convenient yet doesn't serve you ads based on surrounding conversation, search content and >9000 metadata fed into some Dale Gribble based conglomonstrosity. http://newsroom.sprint.com/sprint-iot-factory.htm https://business.sprint.com/solutions/internet-of-things/ Bonus: Your previous content has been restored. I love this feature when I x when I should have not. 2012 Belusnecropolis appreciates this and donates 2018 accordingly.

Our whole CMA received 10x10 centered at 1990 last week to widen the OG block. Pretty sweet, no second carrier yet. This and 6 band 41 upgrades added in the last year after no network additions for the previous 2 years is great.

This isn't how you create or bring back 5,000 American jobs. http://investors.sprint.com/news-and-events/press-releases/press-release-details/2016/Sprint-Announces-Commitment-to-Create-or-Bring-Back-to-America-5000-Jobs/default.aspx

The timeline everyone is saying seems like new radio 600MHz will be in a flagship by end of year and L600 should have aggregation and be available in mid range phones then as well.

Next year. The em7565 I just picked up supports all the current bands and has 5GHz LTE, Cat-12. I am gonna wait for new radio 600MHz before I go dump 200 more bucks on a chip.

Yeah, so far no stand alone radios have it either. I don't have one I can build into a modem.

I am waiting for band 66 here. I am not sure when an embedded 600MHz radio will be available but 5 channels will be pretty impressive for the network experience.

3 channel aggregation is live in 29527

Lots of talk about 4 and 5 Gee layers. Sounds like more radios, paths and sweet battery death. I wonder if it will have a lame toggle button on first wave phones like airlink rollouts of yore. The disclaimer was 299 words short of the article length in whole. That sure says something.

Rural user here, all LTE connectivity except the POTS line. I used the savings from dumping CableCo -(that went out when it rains) to buy LTE equipment that is capable of (aggregated) 2 Gb p/s. If I add em all up I get actual about 60 or 70 Mb p/s. This is without any company CPE or "fixed wireless" dedicated frequencies. Shooting for 5/1 or 10/2 in a certain swath is lame and essentially make-work for air DSL when we have actual GHz of spectrum becoming available and software defined networking adaptive to a wide range of frequencies. The equipment is already there for much more, the carriers would like you to think having a dedicated, deprioritized channel coming from one site on one antenna is an actual effort at deploying good home service. Ffs just let people connect to your network in these areas and it won't be brought to it's knees, many do it every day. If you can deploy in publicly leased, licensed or even unlicensed spectrum in the hundreds of MHz you can service rural areas fully. Why would they spend millions and lobby for such large geo tracts?

Does anyone know the manufacturer of the new 64x64 antenna? All I can find is KMW and they do not respond to email.

"If you’re a news organization and would like to experience a network test drive, please contact Sprint at media.relations@sprint.com for more information." >Belus here at the Myrtle Beach Daily Necropolis Times, tell me more about this test drive . . .

Since we have seen so many folks in the vendor/carrier alphabet soup collaborating, this seems like a great time for the smaller base carriers to get aggresive in competition. I like it. This may keep them honest on rollouts or worse, at least provide some dramady to distract us when they both light up two sites each in rural Montana on January 15 and call it a success. Also, >twitter I will save my super hot fire gif's once we see a reply back. Until then it is Yaass girl, 100% emoji, and fake news gifs.

Thanks! You are the best.

Did we get an @RedSpark update of the earnings call yet?

Not sure whether to MAGA or F A K E N E W S tag this. The idea is great to motivate the out building of networks, densify or have the government haul out some Five Gee to cover rural areas. Make em compete on top where they wont build or create new competition. This could be part of an amazing infrastructure package. We get a sweet national network(under budget and ahead of schedule); plus we all get awesome jobs installing radios, fiber, antennas, towers and connected cars, telemedicine and the future is now etc inf. The government being the backdoor sure sounds lame. They could also spend 2T dollars on this and have anything from a huge hole, a unique view to your usage, and misuse and abuse. Let alone the implications of all that spending, unprecedented corporate take overs, and how it all shakes out for security. Hey if it comes to a vote and works out, hope we all get some sweet futurenet speeds.

That was a very interesting read, thanks for that.

Yeah man, what a time to be alive.

Absolutely.

CBRS is 3.5-6GHz Dan. Millimeter is much higher.

It would make a great fit on my roof.

Thanks for the info Mr Tim. What a great toolset they have built for the network.

That airpole needs a splash page on Sprint dot com, like the magic box. I would thoroughly enjoy having one of those.

I enjoy the new grid style roaming area key. This is much better than experiments in yellow we saw a few months ago.
