About 2 yrs ago the ATT towers were ugraded to 3G vs edge and 3G coverage has a longer coverage reach. So my phone on Ash Swamp went from 0-1 bar on edge to 4+ on 3G. The pathethetic part is that Downtown is stil a zero coverage zone and I called ATT and still no plans to fix it.

Had no signal in the house until late 2009 and then one day had five bars, and that's how it's stayed. But... NO AT&T service in downtown Newmarket.

Newmarket is a black hole for cell phone coverage. I can only get 1 bar if I'm lucky, and it's fleeting. I'm lucky if I can send a text.

Recently read the Planning Board minutes from the Newmarket website. There were AT&T antennas on the water tower on Great Hill THAT WERE NEVER LIT. AT&T was paying a lease to the town (until recently) but never turned the antennas on. Verizon Wireless was granted access to remove those antennas and replace them with theirs. Hopefully this will improve service for Verizon around town. I have e-mailed the town planner to confirm that Verizon is proceeding as planned. We'll be switching if that's the case!

I rarely get reception in my house and when I do, it's spotty. Even standing outside, I don't get more than 1 bar. Wish a carrier would decide to support this area, so I could get text messaging at the very least. As a computer systems administrator, I need to get text messages letting me know of server trouble.

I have to use my boyfriends phone (sprint) to get calls inside the house, and I have barely any signal for about 1 mile in either direction from here. Anywhere I travel, every few minutes at most, if i'm lucky, my calls get dropped. Cingular does not switch towers if you are in a phone call. My entire company uses Cingular and all their phones also have basically no coverage and their calls are dropped constantly. When I was with AT&T, I had great service and coverage, but since they've merged with Cingular, I'm seriously thinking of giving up my phone permently.
