I actually have a few questions:
I guess if not done already, I would like to submit my suggestion to VZW that they create a "Network Status" lookup page where you can enter in a State and/or City and see if there are any issues via interactive map or RSS feed or something.

- Is there a place to check Verizon Network Statuses online easily, and if so, what is the URL
- Anyone know of an app or setting that will let you know if your phone switches from 1X/3G/4G connectivity? (I have a Tbolt)
- If there is no network status page/lookup, has anyone else in the Syracuse, NY are been experiencing 3G/4G "throttling" over the past couple of days? (Or can a VZW rep. let me know if this is an issue?)

1. I am not aware of VZW allowing public access to a network status page. If you are having issues, your best bet is to call VZW (611 from your wireless phone) and talk to Tech Support who can look at network status in your area.
2. The Thunderbolt does have an icon next to your signal meter that will show you what network you are connected to (1X, 3G, 4G). If you'd like to force your phone to a particular mode, you can use an app called "LTE Switch".
A network status page would be nice, but I doubt that will happen. What I would like to see is true street level coverage maps and not the current maps that don't show signal strenght/quality.

jlallier,
Hi there!
At this time, we do not offer service alerts online. However, I did look at the Syracuse, NY area and found no outages/alerts. If you are still experiencing issues, feel free to PM me so I can assist further with your concerns.
Thank you!
