No cell phone works good on base, but once you get out into town this phone has GREAT reception. VERY pleased. And the great thing is that if you do roam while your on base you get fairly good reception, even inside the house.

Quote: Alltel works pretty well. The only problem is that there are a lot of trees in my neighborhood and that tower at the intersection I described is only 1.5 Miles away and I get zero bars in my house and one bar outside. :Unquote. This is the actual location of the that rating. (yes I am the same person who posted it) and Alltel just bought out Western Wireless (The CDMA division of Cellular One) and then today I upgraded my phone's firmware and it gets two bars there instead of one before. I sure hope it stays that way.

Had the mytouch3g for about a year now, I had 3g for about one week and then it went away and I haven't had it seance. They need to put a tower in Beaufort so we get 3g and 4g. I would rather go with Verizon.. so much better.

Reception on Lady's Island is terrible. I've never had a problem with AT&T until I moved here and I refuse to get rid of them. I've had them when they were originally AT&T and then changed to Cingular and then back to AT&T... Beaufort is temporary, but for the rest of the country it works the best, I just wish since this is a military town they would do a better job at getting us some 3G service along with more bars.

AT&T is so horrible here.. Even being next to an area with a tower, it drops signal. Ladys island, St. Helena, everywhere is spotty. Little to no signal unless in middle of Beaufort. 3G? You can hang that up. It's not phone either, picks up and handles fine all over Georgia where I originally got the phone. If you live here, don't bother with them, get Verizon.

It seems that good reception with an AT&T phone in the Beaufort area is hard to come by. My phone reception on ladies island is nil. My phone reception on the bases is very poor if not nil, and it is worse inside. My phone reception in my own home is poor. Occasionally I see up to three bars in town, but that isnt very often. AT&T coverage in this area is VERY BAD!

Intermittent reception if you stand at a window. Slightly better if you go outside.

I cannot use this service at work or home without first searching for a bar or 2. Inside a bldg forget about it. At BestBuy looking at the AT&T phones I get... ... you guessed it no bars. Summing it all up standing motionless with no wind I get 1 to 5 bars in some places, if I move my head, talk, or fart signal is dropped. On a positive note I believe AT&T is adding towers in Savannah, and every other place other than here. ps. I moved from TMobile, and service was just as good. Hmmm maybe I'll try Verizon next... ...

In most places I get one or two bars. There are a few places on base where there are power lines where I get no signal and drop calls. Also inside any buildings I have no service. Rarely have I been able to talk for more than 5 min and the call wasnt dropped in this area.

I purchased a phone from the alltell network and receive very limited service in the all of beaufort. The area where I live has zero service and the area where I work about 10 miles away has a very limited service.
