Usually good, howevver, my cell connection with Sterling, VA - where my parents are in an elderly care residence = is horrid. When I call there from downtown, it's fine. From here, it's a loss. Have to get the lan line I cancelled years ago.

Adams Morgan / Dupont / Columbia Rd.And Wyoming Ave., Washington, DC 20009 Mon Nov 14, 2011

I live in Gelmarc Towers. I can receive calls but soon after answering I lose the signal. Also, walking up Columbia rd towards 18th street the signal is always sketchy. It is impossible to carry out a conversation. This part of DC is dead zone for ATT service. I have the issue on multiple cell phones.

Terrible phone reception in this area. Data is especially bad. I'm sitting right by a window and still nothing.

To the person who posted earlier today, 10 / 01 / 11, please call Sprint to let them know. I also have called. This has been happening since Tuesday. Check out the "network and coverage" section of the Sprint online discussion forum. (This board won't let me post links.) I have roughly mapped out what I determined to be the affected area. I can go outside the affected zone and bring a call back in with no trouble, though.

Dupont Circle, Washington, DC 20009 Fri Sep 30, 2011

Decent reception walking around on the street, but poor both at work and at home. Phone will show show four or five bars of reception, then drop to zero. Fair number of dropped calls. Often, I can't even connect to call my voice mail.

Lived there for a year and could only have conversations when sitting in my window, and even then calls dropped constantly. Miserable. Moved 1 / 4 mile away and it's perfect.
