0 Out of 5 (0 stars) | Cinco Terrace | Cinco Falls, Katy, TX 77494 |

Moved to brand new sec. 49 of Cinco Ranch. The smartphone I have is useless. Have to get in car and drive 1 / 2 mi for any coverage. Have tried the signal boosters T-Mobile sent, but useless, so returned them. No other options but to change service after 10 years, but no sence paying so much money each month for absolutely nothing. I despise Cinco Ranch, the hillbilly attitude people have and regret buying out here. Believe me my new home is not a dream home, it's an EXPENSIVE NIGHTMARE!

I used to have AT&T and would get no reception at home and terrible reception in my surrounding area. I dropped AT&T and switched to Verizon and I would get 4 to 5 bars in my home. I was a happy camper. Then, two months later, my reception dropped to one or two bars. Sometimes I get no bars at all. So far, I can still make and receive calls but I wonder for how long.

We had T-Mobil before switching to AT&T in August 2011. The T-Mobil coverage was failing. Since we had good coverage with AT&T when we lived in California, we switched. From the start, AT&T's reception went from bad to worst. The frequency of dropped and blocked calls has been increasing. Now, more than 1 / 2 the calls are dropped or blocked. Calls often take more than 1 / 2 minute to connect a call if it went through. An AT&T microcell did not improve signal strength or call quality. In fact, our two phones did not even register the microcell most of the time. A highly motivated AT&T tech rep helped us to reset the microcell and got more frequent registration. However, with signal strength showing full 4 bars on the microcell, calls are still dropped or blocked. My wife and I both work from home. And, my cell is my primary work number. So, good coverage is essential. Don't think we will renew with AT&T unless signal quality improves dramatically.

Used to live here and didn't have a smart phone. Suffered from dropped calls and poor quality. Moved back this week now have 4g enabled smartphone. Not only is there no wimax even close to old katy, but Android is indicating 1x evdo with poor to no connectivity.

Tech support can't get I phone to work with micro cell. Without micro cell we get one bar or no service (voice quality very poor, with frequent dropped calls). We had to give the phone up and get a blackberry that will work with the micro cell. Without micro cell the blackberry works as poorly as the I-phone 4S.

Singal moves between 5 bars and SOS or X. Can start a conversation, but make it fast. Once the singal drops you will get call failed when you retry. We tried using the AT&T Micro Cell ($250) and only two out of 3 phones could connect to it. Micro Cell gives 5 bars, however, when you get out of range of the Micro Cell the call does not hand over to the tower as promised. Instead the call is dropped when you leave the range of the Micro Cell.

Singnal here is fantastic. Never a dropped call. Why can't Cinco Ranch have this level of service?
