Extended Coverage Area for 4G

I live in an area that has "extended" coverage for 4G.  On the coverage map I am the color in the middle - not 3G, but not full 4G.  What does that mean as far as getting consistent 4G coverage?  I am thinking about a mobile hotspot and wondered how it might work in my neighborhood.
Thanks.  

I have the samsung hotspot.  I am in 4g extended coverage area and my device switches between 3g to 4g every 1-2 minutes, and never holds the 4g connection longer than 45 seconds.  My 4g signal strength fluctuates between 100-112.  When I have a solid 3g signal I am in the area of 90-100.  I have talked to verizon multiple times, this is my second samsung device, the first one they deemed as defective over the phone and sent me a replacement.  The replacement hotspot immediately did the same thing that the first one did to a tee.  I then spoke to verizon tier 2 tech support for almost 2 hours and they opened a "problem ticket", which I knew would result in nothing since I have experienced "problem tickets" through verizon in the past with no results.  So, now I'm stuck with a device for two years that wont hold a 3g connection for more than 2 minutes (kills internet connection when it switches to 4g, and vice versa when switching back to 4g.)  The real killer in my situation is that I just bought a iphone 4s through AT&T and get a steady 3g signal and can hit 3mb/sec download, and 2mb/sec upload, ping 110-150ms.  Destroys verizons speeds in my area.  With my verizon Samsung hotspot I have never seen download speeds faster than 1mb/sec, .50mb/sec upload, 200-400ms ping.  I wish verizon would do something about my problem, but I feel as though they are just going to sweep this issue under their massive rug.  
"Problem tickets" = No help

  • Does the network extender work in "extended coverage" areas?

    We are going to be at a cabin in a rural area that is in "extended 3G" / "extended digital coverage" according to the verizon coverage map (a few miles east of Arnold, CA).
    As the cabin has internet (we go there every summer), will the network extender work given that it's in an extended coverage area? I usually get 0 bars when I am at the cabin and it would be nice to be able to make/receive calls on the cell phone without having to drive into town several miles away.

        Hello norm_!
    I'd be happy to clarify the Network Extender functionality. I looked up your Arnold, CA location, and unfortunately, the network extender will not work in this area. I apologize for the inconvenence, and I do hope you have a wonderful trip!
    Thank you,

  • Is it possible to activate a new phone in an extended coverage area?

    I recently moved to Southeast Alaska, in an extended coverage later. I would like to upgrade my phone when it is allowed, but want to be sure that I will be able program it here. There is no option for me to just pick up and go someplace in order to punch in the *228 code without getting on a plane to Seattle. Does anyone know if there is a way for Verizon to send you your phone so that it is already activated?

    I too was living in Alaska (Anchorage) when I was eligible to upgrade via NE2.  You'll have to order your phone online and have it shipped to you, but as soon as you get it you can call customer service via landline or other phone (not the number you are trying to activate) and they will help you activate it over the phone.  It is super easy! 

  • Extending work area for fly in graphic

    Hey folks
    I'm new to after effects so please bear with me.
    I have a project where I'm trying to start off with logo that is very large and extends off the stage ( to use a flash term). I want the entire logo to drop down in size so that it can be read and the entire logo fits the screen. The problem I'm having is that the logo gets cropped in the process and when I bring down the size only the cropped part gets smaller and I only have a partial part of the logo.

    Thanks for the reply
    The graphic was brought in as an AI. My question is how do you start off with an over sized graphic and bring it down in size. For instance if I was showing a window in a house on the opening frame and ended up in the last fame with entire house shwing. How is it done in after effects.

  • Can I use an Airport Express to extend coverage for Apple TV

    I hooked up an Apple TV today to replace my Airport Express. Is it possible to use the Airport Express to extend coverage throughout my house for the appleTV, or are they not compatible in that sense?

    Will the ATV work as far as the wireless signal goes? Basically, I can walk halfway through my backyard and them my itouch will cut out. I want to be able to control music (as I do inside) with my Itouch throughout my back yard, and my thought was to put the AX in a location closer to where I would use my ipod outside in an attempt to increase the wireless range.
    I just played with the settings on the Airport and switched it to "enhance an existing wireless network." Tomorrow I'll try to see if this helps to accomplish what I am setting out to do. If anyone has any feedback, by all means share it.

  • No Data Plan for you if you are not in AT&T coverage area

    We have great iPhone coverage here at home, but it is AT&T partner coverage. When I tried to sign up for a data plan on my new iPad 3g, AT&T would not accept the billing address that I have used with AT&T for years. When I called AT&T, they said "We're sorry, you should have known that and not bought a 3g iPad." Although you may use the data service all over the United States, if your home is not in the AT&T coverage area, no data plan for you! Apple has been no help so far either. The only solution I see in the short term is to get a credit card at a relative's address who is in a coverage area.
    If anyone knows a work around, I would appreciate some advice...
    Thanks, R.W. Simms

    Will this work if you live out of the US. Just supply a US address (my parent's condo in Palm Desert for instance) then update to my Canadian Billing address later. Or does the Billing address always have to be American? Kind of pointless if you consider the iPad the ultimate travel device as was envisioned by Apple.
    1. Most credit cards do not allow you to change your address to one outside of your country. Again, most, but not all. (The reason isn't nefarious or anything, it's just that it's credit laws vary by country, and your Canadian Bank might not be able to sue you in the US if you decide to quit paying your bills.)
    2. AT&T Wireless is a US company (thought it probably has businesses in some other countries). Again, for credit reasons and probably Apple restricting markets as they should, it's probably not going to work.
    3. The iPad is the ultimate travel device. It's a US product for US users, so not being able to get a data plan from a US company because you're Canadian, does not lessen it's usefulness. I'm sure it will be launched in Canada soon, and you'll be able to use it with Rogers or whatever network you have up there. Maybe it will be cheaper.
    Go watch some hockey for 3 or 4 weeks, and I'm sure it will be in Canada officially! And I'm not being snarky, because I'm loving the Canadiens right now.

  • Applecare coverage...when can i sign up for the extended coverage?

    With all the trouble with the new macbooks, its looks like its best to purchase an extended coverage of applecare for my macbook. It would be best to buy this at the end of my 1year warranty. Does anyone know if this is possible? Can i buy extended applecare 1 year after my macbook purchase? does it then extend 3 years after the applecare purchase or 3 year after my macbook purchase??
    Thanks!

    AppleCare is good for 3 years from the date of purchase of the MacBook. You may want to consider getting it after 90-days, because that's when your phone support ends.
    Also, shop around for AppleCare. I recently bought mine on eBay for $126.00.

  • Can't make or receive calls or texts in extended network area.

    I have been unable to make or receive calls in the extended network area since arriving here 3 weeks ago. Using a Droid Bionic. Spent an hour with tech support to no avail. purchased a warranted used phone and moved sim card to it. Still no luck. Drove a hundred miles to a verizon service area yesterday and the phone worked fine from there.
    I live in zip code 79834 for 3 months every year and this is the first time I've experienced this problem. I use a Wilson booster in 79834 and get 4 bars. No booster needed for strong extended network signal in nearby 79852 but no luck there either.
    Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Told me to try *228. I told him Verizon Tech support told me not to do that. I'm sooo confused. :-(
    If you are using a Bionic or any other 4G phone, you do not dial *228 to update your Preferred Roaming List ... that is handled automatically by the phone's SIM card.  To force an update, you can turn off the phone, remove the SIM card, wait a few minutes, then replace the SIM card, turn the phone back on, and allow a few minutes for it to re-establish a connection.
    However, as noted by the Verizon rep, if you check the Verizon coverage map, there isn't any coverage in area code 79834.  I've no explanation as to why your neighbor's phone works.

  • Poor 3g reception issue does not come from being in a low coverage area.

    For All of you who keep saying that "If youre in a low coverage area the 3g service wont work you must turn off 3g". That is not a solution. Yes it fixes the problem of not being able to talk on the phone but that is just a workaround that in my opinion is not acceptable. The name of the phone is iPhone 3g. The entire reason for buying this phone is the 3g network. If thats not there and frankly who cares about the GPS as its pretty much useless, then we could have kept our old phones. There are numerous reports of people using their old devices with 3g side by side and getting great reception on their other handset. In my opinion there is a problem with this phone and it should probably be returned until apple figures out what they did wrong. Its not the 3g network and its not a lack of coverage as other handsets are getting great reception. ITS THE PHONE!!!

    I removed all of the interface methods and set those properties and it still
    didn't work.
    I also have a custom skin on this class. I removed that and tabbing started
    to work again.
    Is there any good advise on how to prevent my skin from having effect on the
    group within the container? I've seen a good bit about focus and skins, but
    nothing about skins on a container? all the skin has is replacements for the
    header bar and the close button.
    Thanks!

  • Different sales area for Inter company stock transfer and STO

    Hi People,
                           Is it possible to have two different sales area's for Inter company stock transfer and within the company stock transfer. The problem is in below step
    IMG->MM->Purchase Order->Setup stock transport order->Define shipping data for plants.
    In this step when you define plant as customer, the same plant as customer needs to be maintaind for both STO and Inter company and there is only one entry of sales area possible for this single plant. So, how can the task be achieved.
    I want that STO should be carried out by sales area lets say X/Y/Z
    Inter company should go through A/B/C.

    hi dear,

  • Extended Subject Area is throwing error

    Hi All,
    I am working on consolidation of OBIEE reports and create single RPD.
    We have OBIA as primary repository. One plant is on legacy system. We have created a new schema in EBS database and loaded data to this new schema.
    I created a new Physical layer, BMM and Subject area in RPD.
    I can see this extended subject area in the RPD.
    Whenever I am trying to run a report, I get following error -
    Odbc driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW).
    Error Details
    Error Codes: OPR4ONWY:U9IM8TAC:OI2DL65P
    State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS. Please have your System Administrator look at the log for more details on this error. (HY000)
    But at the same time the standard Subject area work fine and give output.
    Did anyone face such issue? Request help from the group on this.

    Yes. I can query the tables.
    When I update row count then row counts are updated successfully.
    The important part is that the database tables for both the subject area are in same database, just different schema.
    One subject area ( standard) gives results without any issue. The extended subject area pointing to new schema is giving error. The data is in same database.

  • Coverage area and perimeter

    Hello,
    I don´t understand very well the difference between coverage area and perimeter in the WCS Map Editor.
    I only want that APs coverage offer service inside the building and then avoid that a person can connects when he is outside the building.
    To do it, What I have to do? I have to draw a coverage area inside the building or perimeter, or both?
    Regards,

    Hi, thx for your reply. I played with the Planner, defining one large Perimeter and 4 Coverage Areas inside, excluding one Inner Area. The Planner dont worry about that, he plans for the full Area. Regards, Michael
