There is literally a mmWave node outside the stadium gates. Literally is. Verizon has mmWave all over the athletic areas here. Good stuff to see.

Photos 1-3 are Speedtests from node by field hockey complex/track/McDonalds over there and where I broke my records. Photo 4– A picture of that direct node— Photo 5 is a picture of the mmWave node at the lacrosse stadium at the game I was at— photos 6-10 were Speedtests directly at stadium and photo 11 is a shot of the stadium I was at. I had the opposite experience of what I had at Bellarmine on Saturday. This was in University of Louisville campus area.

Well—— I saw the first 2 fall ball lacrosse games for my team yesterday. It was good to see some more folks I haven’t seen in a while!!!!!!!

Numbers aren’t even close. For real. No joke. Here’s something that drives me crazy. So— I go to games at Bellarmine a lot. So I’m a big Speedtester as you all know. The thing that drives me crazy is this. In areas in the surrounding neighborhood and by or very close to the off campus restaurants that are on either way towards campus all of them have mmWave or a node near them. But on the middle of a university campus—— only Lowband 5G for Verizon. Why would they neglect mmWave on the middle of campus?????? That drives me crazy. I just don’t understand why the middle of Bellarmine’s campus is a LTE/Lowband 5G area only. If I go past campus on either side of Newburg road past campus or past Knights Hall where the basketball/volleyball teams play I regain mmWave on either side. But on the middle of campus for some odd reason for Verizon is low band 5G. Yes, I know the speeds are technically usable for most things but for some people who do a lot of heavy based stuff the speeds won’t be enough. On the other hand T-Moblie is best in that area. I think they’re just faster on average and more consistent here in my cases.

Photos 1-6 are the tests I ran by the football stadium and the tailgate areas— Photos 7-11 were the nodes— except for 10 where I put the area I talked about on here— Photo 11 is a test I ran by some academic buildings where there’s a mmWave node— Photos 12 and 13 are the baseball stadium tests— Photo 14 is the node by field hockey place and photo 15 is test by that stadium where I was watching a game, and 16 is another test I ran as I was walking to my stop.

Photos 1 and 2 were at a Ice Cream place just off campus— Photo 3 is the node outside the place— Photo 4 is a mmWave test at a apartment complex many students live during the school year that is not directly afflicated with the university— Photo 5 is the node by that place I talked about— Photo 6 is another mmWave node that this one is on campus— Photo 7 is test from that one— Photo 8 is a test as I walked by stadiums onto my bus stop. I plan to finish the rest of this area tomorrow.

These were at the Dairy Del today. mmWave there also. Interesting thing about Dairy Del for Verizon— they have a macro sitting on that tower and a node 1000 feet away. I think the macro used to have mmWave but looks like they decommissioned the mmWave and the macro is now just n77 based on tests I ran on the macro when I walked further north down.

Walked up and down Preston to Eastern Parkway. So many mmWave nodes along the way. Crazy what they can do if you’re right by a node.

Friday I tested on Poplar Level by Audubon Hospital and the Plaza— Sunday I tested all over Highlands— and today I was in Jeffersonville and tested there. I did have 1.1 down and n77 not mmWave at falls of the Ohio. The other tests were mmWave tests.

This is at the Arby’s in a busy area of town here. I can not believe in 2026 it’s an issue for any carrier. This is an area Verizon is not good in and T-Mobile is showing its shine here in Louisville. They have some incredible n77 and mmWave here in town but this is an area for example Verizon sucks. I can’t believe they suck this bad. This is crazy bad.

This was near the Audubon hospital and the restaurants and that plaza.

I have been testing Verizon’s network for the past month and a half and their network has improved a lot since I last tested a few years back.

At the McDonalds right by my house. This is in Louisville, KY.

These were in various locations but by a dorm hall/ville grill- Softball Stadium- Lacrosse Stadium- Track/Field Hockey Arena was where these were all ran.

I was doing these and walking around in area today. A lot of MMWave for Verizon in this area. When Verizon works they can be fast!!!!!!!!

These were on Bardstown Road by the CVS- Havana Rubaba- and Greater’s Ice Cream over in that corner.

These were in various parts of town. Various parts of the town. Verizon has improved a lot from last time I was there and had Verizon.
