Anywhere on west 5th street. Anywhere on marine road. Bought the apple iphone couple months ago. Could not make or recieve any calls in these areas. Went to radio shack and bought a $20 AT&T pay as you go cell phone and guess what. Works a lot better,... ... As bad as AT&T signals are, Apple has seriouly dropped the ball with their interior antennas.

wow, AT&T is lucky they have good phones because their service is horrendous. Verizon works much better anywhere in the country, and living in Boston, a big city, I am surprised that AT&T cant pick up their slack

Half of the time, I cannot initiate calls from inside my condo. I don't tend to get many drops when I actually make calls, but still. Appalling.

Cingular's always been good in this area at the top of Beacon Hill, along with Verizon (except sometimes indoors). I just wish someone would post about T-Mobile, which I am planning to move to for a new phone.

Terrible! I had perfect reception with AT&T, then the merger came. First I had a Motorola v551 - couldn't hear a thing - constantly dropped. Cingular sent me now a Nokia 6102i, telling me Motorolas don't work well with their network - DUH - um, hello - why you send me it to begin with?? Anyway - the NOkia is just as bad. Now my fight continues - they said if it didn't work IN MY APARTMENT, they would let me cancel my contract and not charge me the $175! Now I hope this board will help me choose the right carrier for this area! Unreal! Cingular - LOWERS THE BAR!

Massachusetts Ave. / Beacon St. intersection, Boston, MA 02215 Fri Apr 28, 2006

In my apartment I fluctuate between 0 and 1 bars. Definitely can't talk at all inside. I have to go outside and walk around the corner where I usually can get a sweet spot of 3-4 bars. But this is in rare locations and in general outside I will have 2 bars.

Spotty reception and dropped calls throught out the city. I live on top floor of a brownstone with clear view of back bay (no tall buildings around) and I lose signal from front to back of my building.
