Often drops calls in Olathe and along I35 north to Omaha, but the phone works well most other places.

I'm not entirely sure what to make of it. My wife and I have lived here for about 2 years now and our ATT service is pretty spotty. We can't hardly make a call in our house even though the phone ranges from 2-5 bars. Once we hit about Lindenwood and Sante Fe it goes perfect. Not to point any fingers or anything but I wonder if the big Garmin site here has anything to do with the spotty coverage. I'd like to switch to Verizon or Sprint to compare the coverage.

Reception is horrible at my house at 156th and Mur-Len. Calls care dropped constantly, and when calls do come through the voice quality is poor. Text messages failing to send. Data service fluctuates from 3G to Edge to "No Service... ". Service bars on the phone will fluctuate from 3 bars to "No Service... ". I've had to keep my landline because my cell phone reception is completely unreliable. I love the iPhone, but AT&T's coverage is crap in this neighborhood. Hopefully Verizion's will be better...

I have great coverage through the entire area. no dropped calls or other troubles. I also get great coverage in my building at work in Gardner. When I had Sprint and T-Mobile that was an issue.

What's the deal?? Suddenly (past 3 weeks or so) everyone I know with AT&T cell phones is having trouble through Johnson County, KS, Wyandotte County, KS, Douglas County, KS, and Shawnee County, KS! Dropped calls when sitting perfectly still after several minutes of clear conversation! Calls just drop while dialing even though full-signal bars showed! Thirty second delays in calls connecting even when they do go through! Some folks have been told it's a problem with their phone, but one person is on her 4th phone and still having the same problem! Another person was told there are 15 towers down in the area and unknown when / if they will be fixed! Something better change or they are going to face a class-action-law-suit for their commercials misrepresenting the "less dropped calls" misnomer! I've always been thrilled with AT&T / Cingular service, being a customer for about 5 years now, but this really is ridiculous!

I just moved to this area 7 months ago and reception is horrible. Reception is crummy and I have tons of dropped calls. When I lived at 85th and Antioch Cingular was awesome. Very disappointed and I'm dropping AT&T after trying to wait it out :(

I have had Sprint for several years and experience great service always! I travel to TN, MS, LA, GA, and Fl frequently, and my service never misses a beat! As with the reception, sometimes you just need to update the PRL in the phone. I get great voice service and have only dropped 2 calls in a 4 yr period. With the A900, I have clocked my downstream speed as high as 900K, but average 700K; my upstream averages 100K.

I have tried 3 diffrent networks and none of them work very well. The best seems to be sprint. I have a work phone from Cingular and the reception on it is not as good. The phone itself does make a diffrence.

The reception in most areas of Olathe is good, only if you are outdoors! Go inside a building, and reception drops to poor and switches to analog and roaming, or no signal. T-mobile, Cingular, and even Sprint phones I used in the same areas get better reception
