New Sprint Site Outlines Sprint’s Network Enhancements

Posted In News - By Mark Hearn On Wednesday, November 23rd, 2011 7:58am PDT With 8 Comments

Have you recently been suffering from sluggish network speeds? Wouldn’t it be great to know exactly what Sprint is doing to make things better in your local area? Well now you can! Sprint has recently pulled the trigger on a new website (network.sprint.com), which gives customers and prospects the ability to search their local area and see what the Now Network has been up to for the past six months in regards to Network Vision. However things don’t just end there!

This new sub-domain doesn’t just let you check on yesterday’s work. It also allows you to see Sprint’s network enhancement plans for the next six months. The site’s information is broken into four different categories: voice upgrades, data capacity upgrades, data speed upgrades, and  new towers.

In its current state, this new tool only details Sprint’s 3G upgrades and is mum on details for their LTE setup. Hopefully as time progresses we’ll see this new website’s reach expand to something a little more next-gen. But considering the growing concern about Sprint’s current 3G speeds, this new resource will definitely come in handy for frustrated customers. However we’re hoping that Sprint’s new map can stay on track and produce more than pretty pictures. If things hold up, we should know something in about six months.

 

Thanks to everyone that sent this in!

    I want an Otterbox for my iPhone 4S, too. Anyway, I looked at this site and there appears to be 6 months of past updates and 6 months of future updates. Apparently there have been a lot of data capacity update in my area and no data speed update.. So sad! The web is freakin’ slow!

    3 towers surrounding my house have received upgrades in the last 6 months, yet I haven’t noticed one difference in download speed. I switched over to Verizon last night and got in on the Amazon penny deal. Hello LTE, goodbye Sprint

  7. Once they fix the capacity issue with your local towers you should expect to have faster speeds even with a lot of people using it at the same time. Sprint problem has always been capacity

  8. Instead of Otterbox, you should check out Lifeproof cases. You can get it at their website http://www.lifeproof. com or Best Buy stores.
