Works good in my basement

Have had this through my company for 8 months. my basement I use it a lot because I have a tower about 1000ft from my house. Only had a problem in Ohio going to Indiana and in my sisters basement so far.

Alway get dropped calls when around my house.

Old phone was LG 4400B, Was not great but better than new phone. Customer servicesuppossedly reprogramed but to no avail

Old phone was LG VX4400B. Was not great

Nextell is uselessin the city of St. Clair. I get a signal, stop andg et off the road - start with three bars and lose it during a conversation. I am about ready to stick to land lines..

My reception was fine for over 5 years. About 2 months ago I start receiving complaints from family that my phone was "turned off", etc. when in fact the phone was on and showed minimal signal strength. Now from 12 noon to about 8 pm I cannot receive any calls but can make some occasionally. Cingular told me it was my old analog phone so I transferred my number to a new Samsung SGH-X427 from Cingular. I tried to activate it by phone with customer service and it wouldn't work. I had to drive into Port Huron and have the store activate it. Great reception near Lake Huron and the St. Clair River. As I drove to my home 15 miles SW of Port Huron, the reception declined to zero! Now I do not even have a phone that works part time! If I am lucky I can receive a call if I am standing in the center of my front lawn. Tomorrow I am sending the phone back and reactivating my old analog phone! I really believe this is a recently engineered "dead zone"! No cell phone service can work fine in an area for several years and then drop off to nothing!
