Works in front rooms of the house. Loses signal in kitchen. Has 1-2 bars in the front yard. I can drive all the way down HWY-40 from Dunnellon into Ocala and never lose signal with Sprint. I've had Sprint for over 10 years so I figured I would try a few others. Recently tried At&T (iPhone), T-Mobile (blackberry pearl and 8320), and Verizon with the Blackberry Storm (doesn't have voip capabilities). Verizon had about the same signal, but the phone was buggy (a known issue). AT&T was spotty in the house, it worked outside, but occasionally dropped calls. T-Mobile is USELESS up here. The T-Mobile phone do have wifi (voip) capabilities, I'll give them that edge. Have to go into town (near Walmart) to get a T-Mobile signal. Good luck if you live in or near Tropicana Lakes!
calls dropped all time I can see 2 cell towers from my house phone goes from roam to home just sitting on table Alltel gives no good answers tried other types of phones also. T mobile and verison work fine here
Drop calls all the time and choppy when at others. Only safe place to make calls in the house are in the kitchen, driveway (sometimes) and backyard odly enough. Inconsistent coverage.
Totally variable on any given day. Which way are you facing, and what is the color of your shirt today? Three different basic phones haven't worked, and a friend's expensive $200 one does! I'm looking for a new phone now!
If I can get a call to go through, it usually is terrible reception and drops within 30 seconds or so. Horrible coverage and service with two supposedly Alltel towers within 3 miles! How come??!
There is a tower just east of Hwy. 41 and the corner of Hwy. 328 (Marion County, FL - Dunnellon zip code) and our farm is 1.5 miles west of this corner. Coverage is typically 1 bar or no reception - but if you stand just right you can actually go from 5 bars to NO SERVICE by moving your feet slightly. Truly amazing. And these clowns have the nerve to bombard us with those disingenuous full of crap commercials. From my own experiences and visitores to the farm + what I have read about coverage in this part of Marion county we are all out of luck. And broadband wireless is a dream.
