signal is so inconsistent and won't download with stalls.

Live on top of a ridge overlooking Park Dr.and Verizon is the PITTS! Updated firmware, reprogramed phone and roaming and still stinks. Get 5 bars one minute and drps to nothing the next and back to 5 bars, at which point the call is already lost. Doesn't seem to matter if I'm inside or outside. My roommate has a T- Mobile Dash and has no problem what so ever getting and keeping 5 bars. Whats up Verizion???

Poor reception out of the house and driving around, almost none inside a house / building. Has been this way for over a year. Verizon has no plans to fix.

Every time I go through here the call will go bad, drop and then hit me with a 5 bar. Updated the roaming 10-20 times but it does not help. I also live above Park. I get 3 different networks in the house but none work. Have to sit on the stairs to talk, usually lasts 2-3 minutes before it drops. Son has T-Mobile with the RAZR. It is awesome everywhere. Phone is better than some land lines.

Severe packet loss, bad connections. Using an old Motorola phone with an extendable antenna, the reception is a little better. New phones have shorter antennas and that definitely affects coverage with Verizon (and probably every other carrier)

It is hard to see the reception bar dropping below 5. Even indoors, i get a full reception. From sacramento to auburn, i get a very good reception and I have no complaint whatsoever. I used to have AT&T TDMA, and i prefer Verizon much more than AT&T. CDMA has much better call quality, and less dropped calls.
