Why Isn't sprint expanging there network....

I know with all of the competition out there especially if the At&tmobile merger actually goes through. Why isn't sprint expanding there network??? If i can tell they are actually shrinking there network....Doesn't make sense to me.


Its really hard telling what is going on with Sprint ATM. If you call and talk to their CSR's/Advanced Techs they will tell you that sprint is going to abandon wimax in favor of lte. But you could read something completely different on the internet.

And someone had posted a coverage map of Sprint from last year, and posted one from a couple weeks ago and their coverage has dropped easily 50% (if not more). So its hard to tell what they are doing now. I was getting 4 bars at work, and close to 1mbps data speeds at work. But since then I barely get 1 bar at work or home, and I never break .50mbps. And they told me that they arent working on any towers here...So it seems that they are just in a holding pattern for now.


It looks like a pretty unstable mobile world through their eyes....
