Signal strength varies during the day. Few if any dropped calls and good voice quality. Data speeds are slow however with avg of 550kbps down and 75kbps up in what should be a 1400 kbps network.

Very good signal: did not experience any dropped calls issue even through the iPhone hardware I love AT&T in this area!

What about AT&T Reception around Riverside Dr. in Sandy near that River Oaks Golf Course. I was thinking about getting an Iphone. I'm on Verizon right now and it's fine there.

Had a Motorola = crappy reception. My new Samsung is leaps and bounds better. Even in my basement I can still get 4 bars of service. Dropped calls?? Come on, this is Cingular we're talking about... . fewest dropped calls of any carrier! BUT, there's always room for improvement!

Cingular works really well when I am traveling on business to Southern California but doesn't work well in my home or on highland drive. Every time I drive by the Pinnacle appartments on 7600 S. Highland Dr.I drop the call. Every time without fail!

I get no signal in my home. I have to go outside and hope the call dosen't drop.

I switched to Cingular about two weeks ago. Calls from approximately 800 E. and 10800 S. are very poor in quality - even when outside. I cannot get a signal most of the time from the basement of my home at that address, and when calling from the main floor the person on the other end of the line often complains (if they haven't been dropped prior to being able to complain). I spent an hour on the phone with Cingular customer service yesterday. Their solution: Have more customers log complaints to Cingular and after they get enough complaints they might be able to send out a technician to check out the area.

In our experience, Cingular GSM has the worst reception / transmission of any carrier in the Salt Lake market, and their customer service is equally dismal... don't waste your time with these guys; it's not worth it for all the dropped calls, garbled conversations and 30 minute wait times with customer service...... their attitude is best summarized "we're too big to care" We'd highly recommend TMobile, Verizon and Qwest, in that order, for transmission / reception and voice quality superior to Cingular...

Coming up to redwood road on bangerter HWY I get poor reception around the river bottoms. I also get poor reception around 10600 So and 700 E. I use to love AT&T wireless. But there new GSM network sucks!

GSM coverage is poor to nonexistant throughout east Sandy. From what I can tell the only tower in the whole area is by Altaview Hosp at 94th South, 13th East. Our only hope is that AT&T will beef up the coverage in this area. If you've also had problems with this area go to this link and report your difficultly. Strength in numbers! Otherwise, I've found the remainder of the SL valley GSM coverage to be great.

AT&T GSM network what a joke! Just plain poor with no hope of getting better.

AT&T TDMA / AMPS provides very good coverage in this area including up the Cottenwood canyons and the ski resorts. The canyon reach may be due to AT&T phones ability to use the AMPS analog network which has greater range than the digital nets. However, AT&T TDMA / AMPS is being discontinued by 2006 and may degrade between now and then as Cingular converts the AT&T TDMA and AMPS 800 MHz to GSM 800. So TDMA customers accustomed to excellent coverage have to switch to something with inferor coverage. From what I read and hear, Verizon offers the next best coverage and theoretically does provide AMPS for rural area coverage.

Rotten reception; none indoors. As soon as you turn off of 9000, you're dead. Too bad, because everywhere else is great reception.

I have lived at the mouth of Little Cottonwood Canyon my entire life and started using Verizon first. Verizon never had service anywhere from little cottonwood to big cottonwood on wasatch blvd. I switched to Sprint about three years ago and usually have at least three bars no matter where I go.

Terrible service in this area. Most calls drop or are garbled to the point of not being able to understand one another. Previous residents said they had no problem with Verizon here.

I usually get good reception. My phone only dropped calls maybe two or three times in the almost 2 years I've had it. When it dropped calls it is usually while driving 700E and 10600 S. Gateway, Crossroads, Downtown area seems to be fine. I don't go up the canyons very often, so I could not tell about coverage in those areas.

No reception in store and school which are all in this area. Outside reception is below average.

I've tried Sprint in Salt Lake and service was okay, but nothing too special. A few dead spots I found with Sprint in the Salt Lake Valley: Union Middle School (no service in most part of the school), Hillcrest High School(very weak), Gateway Mall (all or nearly all stores are dead), the ZCMI Center has lots of dead spots for Sprint, drving on 7th East from Fort Union towards 6600 South calls drop nearly every time right before you cross I-215, Big Cottonwood Canyon is totally dead right after you enter the canyon (Verizon's digital service reaches much further into the canyon), also in Millcreek Canyon Sprint service is gone right away while Verizon reaches in very far (and so does AT&T TDMA) and there are many more. Sprint coverage in the Salt Lake Valley is all right, they have a lot of room for improvement though! I'd recomend Verizon for Utah, Cricket, though, is also quite strong here in the Salt Lake Valley. I never had a network busy message when using Cricket. Only thing to be carefull of is that they do not work at the ski areas and don't even provide continous service along I-80 to Park City.

I have had T-Mobile for 3 years, and am going to sign in again for another 2 year contract. In this area, and while driving around Utah and Idaho (As I work ALL OVER) T-Mobile rarley lets me down. There are a few spots and times when I can't get good reception (Like in Sandy Costco, 1300 W 10000 S, 6200 S 700 E)), but 99% of the time, I'm good. My friend had Sprint and it was always dropping calls in the area, but not that bad, but my cell phone always won :)

Despite getting 1-2 bars of reception call are never dropped and the call clarity is still near perfect. When the phone is on 3G is it extremely slow. When 4G is switched on I get 1 or 2 bars and the internet is very fast.
