Coverage yo-yo's a lot. Can be a perfect signal one minute and suddenly drop the next. I can go a few days with no drops and then get dropped 10 times in an hour. This area is exploding population wise (I have lived in my house for 6 years now and the coverage has gotten a little better). This is ridiculous that I can't get good signal from any provider.

We can get some service if we go outside, but no service inside the house.

Our house is surrounded by old growth trees and hills. Guests often complain about their cell phones not working, but since we've been with AT&T Wireless for almost 15 years, we've never had any problems. We've even dropped our land line because it's so reliable

I am always amazed at how good my service is out here in the woods. In fact, I get good service almost everywhere I go, be it the city of Snohomish, Everett, Monroe, Woodinville. There are a few spots along Woods Creek road (the road from Lk Roesiger to Monroe) where service drops for a bit, but consider how far out in the woods we are, that is too be expected (Also, I don't think people should be talking and driving at the same time anyway, so really there is no reason for service there since there are no places to stop.)

Was fine at home up until last week when it just stopped. Intermittently will get bars, but "error" when trying to connect.

Signal is very low inside the house and voice quality is suffering.

Sometimes I can carry a decent convo, as long as it's less than 5 min, but other times I can barely hear the person I'm talking to.

1 bar no 3g, Tons of dropped calls, sometimes get voice mail 10 to 20 hours after sent. Can't download attachments and some texts never come through. Call quality is very low. It was good when we first moved here and has gone down in the gutter.

Signal strength varies from 0 to 2 bars. Attempts to use wireless as a serious business communications tool are very iffy. Calls are dropped, garbled, or generally unacceptable. Seems to be equally bad or worse for other types of phones with the same carrier. Our previous carrier was AT&T and it was even worse. There was no wireless service at our house. Our neighbor has Cingular and he can only use his cell phone from the driveway in front of his house. Raining out? Too bad. We are looking into cell phone boosters, but they are expensive ($200-$500) and it isn't clear they always work.

Verizion is the best wireless service anywhere by far! From in my home to the East coast. Bring on the Verizon wireless broadband...
