I have an Epic 4g touch; I could connect to 4g this weekend and now I can’t. Flashed back to stock and still having issues, even the 3g is giving me issues. Anybody with Sprint having any issues since Sandy passed through? ---

Sprint, At&T, and Time Warner is having network routing troubles after the storm. I am sure they will get it sorted in the next day or two. ---

CO’s in NYC under water. Lot of their traffic must route through those COs. ---

Had a coworker who works with a Sprint representative day in and day out; Confirms that Sprint towers were damaged in this area, there are also Verizon T1 lines that are out as well (which sprint ironically uses). ---

Cellular carriers although bearing the same name, contract out the actual fiber that gets to their cell towers. Verizon’s entire NYC office is under water. They are in emergency mode down there. That is where they do all of their provisioning for all of NY, MA, NJ, Penn ---

They probably just didn’t feel like connecting your call. Shit happens. ![http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/11/01/aqydu8y3.jpg](http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/11/01/aqydu8y3.jpg) ---

As for carriers… Verizon \> Sprint \> T-Mobile \> AT&T…I’ve worked with all four (I managed the wireless account at work and now co-manage it). This is as far as bang for buck and service goes. ---

You were lucky. SPRINT is having major problems for the last couple of days. I am willing to bet they are going to keep having it for another few. Getting contractor repair vehicles to mountain towers is not a priority when almost all contractors are in the City trying to get life back in order there. ---

My apartment guilderland gets 3g fine, speeds are decent…for 3g. Go to work, 3g speeds are 5kbps, 4g is non existent. Depends what location/towers.
