Aboslutely terrible service in the whole house... dropped calls and missed calls frequent. If it werent for text messaging I dont know how I would talk to anyone. AT&T best in jackson.. at least on my side of town.

Calling Verizon doesn't help much, because they just tell you it's a poor reception area. I'd say in a 3 / 4 mile radius from Stop n Shop, I get no bars or no service. But the second I cross into Lakewood off county line rd... all my bars are there. I get nothing in my house, and most of the outside area.

Works OK most of the time (4 bars) but come 5-7 pm every day the bars go from 0-1 with frequent dropped calls. During those times I am afraid to make any important calls, or make calls I know will be lengthy. If I stand near the first-floor kitchen window and thus facing north, reception picks up 1-2 bars, but it is still unpredictable. It must be the tower that's located on Interstate I-195, about 3 miles away. Ferequently the bars will go from 0-5 for no obvious reason. For example, when the phone is still bars will still go from 0 to 5 and back to 0 and back to 5, etc., even if I amo not moving the phone. Going to the second floor of this 2-story townhouse makes no difference in bars. This whole area is sunk in a geographical hole / depression of sorts, so I wonder if that has something to do with it.

This whole area reception comes and goes. Lots of static and interference. May have something to do with the phone model, all 3 of us had it replaced multiple times for numerous malfunctions, unfortunately AT&T will not give us another model. After 1 year, the phones are literally falling apart. Due to the poor customer service, will be looking for another carrier shortly.

When in my house I get full reception but whenever I go back in the school my reception drops to no servince or 0 bars.

VZW is the best in Jackson, actually the best in NJ. I've had every other carrier and travel all over NJ. VZW is the best. I've come to this conclusion here is a list of carriers in NJ from best to worst: 1-Verizon Wireless 2-Cingular(horrible cust. service) 3-T-Mobile 4-Sprint (horrible cust. service) 5-NEXTEL( STAY AWAY )

From the corner of rt571 to almost Don Connor there is little or no reception until you just about get in front of the police station. How ever my wife has a no frills Nokia and she get reception before I do with my Motorola V360 even when were in the same vehicle. We did a little experiment as per the T-Mobile tech guy and took my SIM card out of my phone and put it in to a Nokia 3595 that we had laying around from when my wife had a family share plan. popped the SIM card in and it works in places where the V360 didn't. I know Jackson is some what of a black hole as far as cell phone service but this proved to me it's not always the service. Before I get a new phone from T-Mobile whihc they said they have no problem giving me I might try one of those booster antenna's. The real kick in the butt is that sitting in my house the v360 works great where my Verizon piece of junk No I can't hear you now phone served as a paper weight.

i get perfect reception along w. commodore and alot of streets in jackson, all I have a problem is getting on route 9 I lose all 4 bars

I've had Cingular for 2 years now and have always gotten reception in my house and through most of my town. Friends with Sprint and T-Mobile get nothing when visiting my house.

NEXTEL coverage is non-existent here... very disappointed, will switch when my contract is up... my brother has Cingular and gets a full signal even in the basement!
