How to find Sprint Towers
Www.sprint.com/network
Put your address in and see what towers have been updated. I found 1 by my house i drove to it and did some 3g tests... All of these were done on 3g. This is way better than the speeds i was getting on 3g before. Tests completed with my epic touch. http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...614-194128.png http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...614-182744.png Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2 |
Re: How to find Sprint Towers
Speeds are still crap around my way, they have gotten a little bit better but still not what I would call 3G. The network site says upgrades were performed and completed near me.

Sure its not 4 or 5 mb down like people get on AT&T 3g but I gotta admit its much better than the 122kb I get everywhere else. |
Re: How to find Sprint Towers
And apparently whatever upgrades they're doing aren't helping because according to this report below, sprint is slower than last year.

Re: How to find Sprint Towers
I just ran 6 tests while sitting here at work in Orlando (Sandlake Road/Florida Mall area) and got the highest 3G speeds I've ever seen.
First three were CDMA only: kb up/ kb down 2283/694 1933/732 2185/795 Next three were LTE/CDMA: kb up/ kb down 2299/762 2208/738 1746/806 In the past, I would get download speeds between 700kb-1500kb. This is with about 5 out of 6 bars for signal strength. It looks like some improvements have been made around here. I'll try to test 3G in other parts of Orlando and see if I also notice improvements. |

What phone did you use? I thought LTE wasn't on yet... How are tout getting LTE? Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2 |
Re: How to find Sprint Towers
I have the Evo LTE, but those are 3G speeds. We don't have LTE yet in Orlando.
It looks like my results were better this morning since it wasn't even 8:00am yet. We have a big call center next to us that is full by afternoon and it looks like it has slowed me down some. I just ran a few more tests with the phone in CDMA as well as LTE/CDMA and my results were all over the place compared to this morning. Out of 8 tests (4 with CDMA and 4 with LTE/CDMA) and I saw download results as high as 1423kbps and as low as 240kbps. |
