Unable to make / receive calls. I fear cell tower companies have simply given up on this town. We're not heavy cell users but it is certainly an inconvenience. Cable landline phones are also limited during power outages as they need power to operate and only have 4-5 hour battery backup.

Bought the Verizon Network extender on ebay for 79$. It is a Godsend - worth every penny - now we get 3 bars all over the house where we would have none to one. Easy to install and use.

Upton is well known as a dead zone for most carriers. Nextel has some coverage but spotty.

Upton is notorious for lousy cell service with most carriers. Nextel has some coverage but it is not that great. Attempts have been made to put more towers in the town but the local bylaws seem to drive the companies away or tie them up so long in zoning reviews that they withdraw the applications. It just does not make sense when the town has so much undeveloped space where a tower would go unnoticed. God forbid we put a tower on a big ugly water tank and improve service while bringing in some much needed revenue for the town. Come on! I now use a Verizon Network Extender via my high speed internet to get coverage in the house. It works pretty good.

Only get 1 bar in one very specific spot in the house. Other than that, it's a 10 minute drive to Hopkinton to get service. Friends will call my cell and then accuse me of screening my calls when I don't call back. Was hoping another service would be the answer. Guest seem to have no problem with their service and their phones at my house (?) Still waiting for FIOS, too.

I just moved to Upton and now I have no phone! I can only use my Verizon phone when I drive several miles away from my new apartment and am into Hopkinton. I live alone and am not safe without a phone while at home. I have Verizon wireless. Does any other company have a signal in this town? Please help. This is a serious problem.

Go to your local town meeting and support cell tower development, when cell tower construction companies try to build a tower the only people who show up at town meetings are the people who oppose them.

Verizon has admitted that my neighborhood is not covered, and will drop my contract BUT my whole extended family uses Verizon (free), AND I use its DSL and land lines... the package deal. Need a new package deal but no such animal... haven't even figured out WHAT cell carrier does cover my home neighborhood. Anyone know?

If I'm lucky and place the phone near a window, I can sometimes hear it ring. I can never answer the call (it's always immediately dropped) but I can at least see who it is and call them with a landline. Incredibly frustrating

Normally no service. Sometimes 1 bar. Visitors with Nextel seem to get 2 or more bars. Most of Upton has poor coverage or no service.
