Sprint

Calls ok, poorest unusable data ever.

US Cellular

Consistently have NO reception when at Packer games. It shows bars of coverage but no text or data whatsoever.

Verizon

One of the only carriers to get reception during Packers Game at Lambeau.

Verizon

Horrible coverage here. Moved from nd and it worked great there. Good luck with customer service

Sprint

I hate Sprint service so much I'm on the verge of paying an early cancellation fee in this is my second different phone with Sprint so I know its not the phone.

US Cellular

Always have good service and RARE to have a call drop (never at home) When we go down south in the US we are roaming, but my plan covers that. Only complaint is that emails will only be sent a couple of times a day unless I am reading a previously sent email- then new ones will come in. But if I have read all of my email I can't get new ones till they decide to send them. Basically though, I am VERY pleased with quality of coverage.

Verizon

The closest thing you'll be able to do is get at least two to three texts out to friends and family. Good luck.

Sprint

5 bars in back yard. 4 out of 5 bars in home. 3 out of 5 bars in basement. Good coverage and never dropped a call within Green Bay city limits.

AT&T

I consistently get very good reception in the whole Green Bay area. The 3G data speed is fast and the call quality is great. I used to have Sprint and I get much better reception with ATT. ATT 3G speed blows Sprint data speed out of the water in Green Bay.

Sprint

No issues placing calls in this area or around Ashwaubenon.

AT&T

I Just purchased service on 7 / 2 / 11, brought the phone home to test it out because I was going from a pre-paid net10 phone which had no service in my basement and maybe only 1-2 bars max elsewhere in the house, well when I got home after getting the AT&T plan, I thought sure with an Android i'd have no problems, but I kid you not, I have absolutely no service in my basement, it's almost worse throughout the house, customer care moved me from 3g to 2g because they said the 3g network in this area is bad, well I dont' want a 3g phone if I only get 2g service for it, I can't even use all the apps because 2g slows up and freezes, Very disappointed, I'd much rather pay 50 bux a month for my net10 again and have crapppy service, instead of paying an extra 30 every month for pretty much even worse service, but only difference is, I can use facebook on this AT&T phone, but with the service here it isnt worth it.

Verizon

Little to NO reception... especially in the house. Neighbors complain as well. Makes me want to drop Verizon because of this.

Sprint

Constant dropped calls, choppy reception. I have to call people back all the time due to a poor connection. It is not the phone since this is now the third phone I have with the same problem. Sprint's attitude is an we don't know and we don't care attitude. After 10 years with them, my contract will be up soon and I will be leaving them. It is too bad they couldn't take a better customer service attitude and help to solve the problem.

AT&T

Inside the house is 1 or 0 bars. Brand new phone and no bars? Outside between 2 and 3 bars. My old Spint phone was 5 bars at all times. AT&T Tower located at US 41 and Lombardi Ave. "Should" be fine. REALLY dissappointed in AT&T.

AT&T

Visiting my grandmother and have poor service all over town.

AT&T

Both at home (Allouez) and at work (east Green Bay) my phone goes between no svc and one bar of EDGE. Dropped calls all the time. AT&T is LOUSY in this area. I had a Cellcom plan before and I could get reception - RELIABLE reception - even in my basement... . Thinking that switching back to Cellcom is my only option -- ALL of the major carriers here are lousy options -- either they are bad here or bad where I have to travel for work. Cellcom gave me good everything everywhere...

AT&T

No reception in a couple block radius of our home also poor / no reception in many areas of Green Bay. I never had issues with previous cell phone carriers but I have had so many dropped calls with AT&T that it is just embarrassing. Switched to Sprint and it works beautifully - even in our basement.

Verizon

Very poor reception in region. May get lucky and be near a tower, but typically 1-2 bars at home, whether it's on a Blackberry Storm or Curve. Tower penetration in this region is horrible. Calls to customer service are, as expected, pretty worthless. Need to call them more to make sure more towers are put in. Long-time locals say Cellcom is the company to use locally.

AT&T

I could not get any bars inside my house, in the mall, or really anywhere that had one or more walls between me and the outside. Cingular / AT&T's coverage map showed a big empty space right over my neighborhood. Switched to Cellcom a year ago and get FABULOUS reception all over Wisconsin, even up north where the towers are few and far between.

Sprint

sprint is an overall good company. the network doesn't work very well inside though.

Sprint

Very good reception in most NE WI areas, get decent coverage in lakewood, townsend, wabeno also, better that cellcom!

AT&T

Coverage is way too spotty. Signal strength fluctuates from very good to NO SIGNAL within a few seconds making it impossible to carry on a conversation. Get used to the phone reading "CALL FAILED"

US Cellular

Have US Cellular for many years. There is no cell service within 8block-1mile radius of my home. I cannot get cell service in my home. US Cellular has promised to put in new towers but this has never happened. It is not the phone I use, as anyone who comes to my house with a different phone but still on US Cellular service cannot use their phone in this area.

AT&T

I purchased two phones in hope of cancelling my land line, said they were building a tower by NWTC this past summer, so reception should be good. I can't call out or receive calls in my house or yard, which is 1 / 2 mile from nwtc.

US Cellular

the range of reception in this area is all over the board. it probably doesn't help that the area is somewhat hilly. there are dead spot on I-43 just North of the Greenbrier overpass and Just west of I-43 on Mason between the highway and Alpine... often dropping calls or being unable to hear my side of the conversation. USCellular insists the problem is mine, but it holds true for my phone as well as my fiance's. furthermore, my phone receives a great signal on Cellcom towers... i wish I could always be on Cellcom towers... i wish I had Cellcom service maybe.

US Cellular

I drive all around Green Bay and never have problems making a call or losing calls

Sprint

I've had great luck with my Sprint PCS phone after being fed up with Cingular / ATT dropped calls on the 172 bridge. I now get consistent signal all over Green Bay.

AT&T

Dropping calls, getting error messages and failed call message, very hard to be heard when you can get through. The reception is AWFUL!

Verizon

Was told after purchasing the phone that my office location was at the point of intersection between two towers, and thus weak.

Verizon

Service has been quite good here over Cingular's Service, which drops calls all too often.
