Alltel just did some upgrading in town I think. They must have new towers because I am getting 4-5 bars of coverage all over the new growth part of town (I-20 - Exit 85-86) (Walmart, Wendy's, Chili's, etc..) However, phone calls seem to go to voice mail way too often without ringing and coverage needs to be expanded where the rich folks live (Stowe Creek, Creek's Edge). Also, why all of the Analog signals when in a Digital area??? Been a customer for 10 years + and about to switch to Cingular.

Even with four bars of reception my phone mysteriously goes to analog a lot of times. I also get calls that I never know about until I recieve a voice message. I've had people tell me they call me 3-4 times before it even rings for me. I'm not the only person that has this problem with Alltel and they have different model phones than I do. I usually don't get any reception at all if I go inside some of the buildings on campus.

Watched other people in Green Clinic talking on cell and we had NO bars at all! Have to go to deck in back of our home to make cell phone call and even then we have to hold our head just right to keep a signal. And we live just north of 1-20 right in the middle of Ruston. Horrible reception. Traveled all over the US and had great reception but Ruston is awful.

Average 5 - 10 calls dropped a day plus numerous calls where you cannot hear each other talk. Recently Cingular admitted that their coverage in Ruston particularly in the north east side is very very poor but they dont intend on fixing it anytime soon

There is great reception across most of the city. Once they merge the AT&T towers in it should be perfect all across Ruston!

I get good reception almost everywhere I go in Ruston. Even in the woods. I almost always have 5 bars. If you are thinking of moving in this area, you should choose Cingular for you wireless service. They're great.

The reception here for AT&T GSM is very good. I either get full reception or 80% reception most of the time.

I've literally had every available carrier in Ruston because the service at my apt was so bad. Nextel seems to work the best there. I usually get 3-4 bars of service in my apartment, all around town, and in buildings. Every other carrier I tried in Ruston had too many coverage holes, or got little to no indoor signal. If you having coverage issues, i'd give Nextel (or a Boost Mobile iDEN series phone) a try.

The T-Mobile service is extremely poor in this area. When I called T-Mobile to notify this they told it was either the fault of the phone set or the sim. But I am not only one to face this problem.
