Usually none. Cingular also bad. Sprint and T-Mobile are excellent in this area (Taylor Park, Military Rd, etc.)

Constant problems due to poor antenna(s) placement or downtilts. Sorry, I use to work for Nextel years ago. Not much you can do other than to invest in a secondary phone (Tracfone or any of the other Pay as you go ones). I told the Nextel folks (if they bothered to listen... .) to have Micro Cells installed in dead spots and also the Metro tunnels. And it is 'doable'! NYS Empire Plaza has them in the concourses. Hope it helps if people keep posting their issues with coverage.

Upstairs very poor reception, must stand outside or by a window to use phone at all. No reception downstairs. Reception has not improved in the 18 months I have had this service. I will definitely be changing carriers.

Reception inside of apartment is pretty terrible. Calls are usually dropped once or twice per conversation. Outside reception is fine. Not sure if the nearby airport or military installation would be affecting reception.

Along Rt. 50, cell phone drops near Rosslyn, Ft. Myer, Harrison Street, and Arlington Forest Area. Seems to be worse in the last two months. Not the same as AT&T.

Lyon Village Apartments are hard on cell phones, which is too bad because of the free high-speed internet in the apartments and garden style layout making this a particularly good place to ditch the land line. Best reception is near windows; residents routinely use the courtyard.

Signal varies between 2 bars and no bars. Dropped calls are common. The phone is almost useless inside the house and nearly outside for several houses in any direction. A Verizon phone used in the same location has a great signal.

There's almost no signal in the mall... especially not down in the food court. My mom and I couldn't have a conversation ("where are you?") from one end of the mall to the other.

I just moved to River House apartments, and although my phone has worked great just about everywhere else, I cannot make phone calls inside my apartment. I tried calling my roommate when I was locked out, and I had to walk from my hallway all the way outside just to make the call. What a hassle.
