I have been using an old Motorola V190 with AT&t since 2003 and I get great reception and I can't remember the last time I had a dropped call. My advice is to check out the specific phone you are using as it is clear that when people complain about a dropped call they are only blaming half the hardware. I have news for you... ... ... not all phones are equal... ... ... sure cell tower location is important, but so is the phones ability to transmit and receive.

AT&T gets good reception all the time outside, not so much inside, but I live in a brick building. I have dead spots in my apt. They have vastly improved over the last year / year and a half. Like the other commenter s - there is a "dead zone" in Ridgebury near St. Elizabeth Seaton church. Also going through Weston / Easton as well as out for at least 5 minutes near the reservoir. And going into Fairfield on Rt 58. But other than that very reliable, hence my rating of 4. My phone may be at fault, my friend's iPhone gets better, if you can believe that.

cannot stand it... zero reception... missing critical calls, dropping calls, etc... . i'm fed up with paying for a service that I absolutely am not receiving... just wish I could find a reliable carrier to ensure I don't continue to miss calls... will likely be dropping Verizon and will inevitably go through the list of providers until I can find something that works even "decently"... best... frustrated

Been lousy for years. Cell tower (not sure which carrier) less than one mile as the crow flies, but hilly terrain. Verizon not much better.

NO service is usually the case while in restaurant. JK's has plenty of windows on three sides and it is located on major throughoufare (RT 53) and is in downtown Danbury... yet poor service. Come on ATT

no service at alll. its ridiculous

Good service everywhere except parts of Bethel where nothing works well.

Service poor off of exit 2 - try to do a 60 minute telephone meeting from home,and phone dropped 5 times. Service very inconsistent. Always drops in downtown Danbury. Switching back to Verizon as soon as my contract with Cingular is over!

Poor service - 1 bar or less.

Good in some places, awful in most

Have to be on door-step - and then sporadic with a single bar at best.

Verizon drops to zippo going up Padanaram Rd. towards the 7/11 & Citgo.

Generally good coverage in Fairfield County (from Long Island Sound up as far as New Milford, CT), but no service North and East of New Milford, until you reach Torrington, CT (on CT Route 8).
