Alltel's PRL's do not allow EVDO in florida, but using Sprint PRL's programmed into our phones it works pretty well. Speeds vary depending on which site your phone is registerd on at the time. Coverage is usually never a problem for me either, well atleast for all the areas in central florida where I travel.
The voice service is fairly decent throughout most of Orlando, FL, however Alltel doesn't cover the area yet -- you're roaming for free on Sprint and Verizon which doesn't include high-speed EvDO. If I had to live there for more than a year I would be forced to switch mobile providers due to the lack of EvDO.
Indoors non-existent Outdoors 2 bars Incoming calls never ring, always go straight to voicemail. Been this way for 15 years but have no choice to leave ATT because of corporate standard for my employer.
Never a problem. Anywhere in this area. But... I've also yet to have any signal loss or dropped calls in the majority of Orlando. My only drop-out or "missed calls" are when heading to Cocoa Beach and about midway through, in the middle of nowhere, there's a temporary and small dead zone.
This is an ODD problem.. the longer my phone has been stationary here the less bars I get.. If I reboot the phone I get 3 bars not even good, sounds very hollow and within the first hour after being rebooted I dont get more then 2 bars
Once inside the convention center the reception is sporadic at best. I usually have no reception or 1 bar at best! According to AT&T, this area has the "best" covergage. If this is their best, I'm glad I dont have their worst. A friend that I work with has Verizon and consistently has 3 to 4 bars on the same RAZR model.
