Driving on Hwy. 14 there's a large dead zone between Hwy. A and Hwy. 59. Dead zone 90% of the time. Don't even bother trying to make a call.

Verizon sucks - My daughter talked me into it because her siblings all have verizon, but none live in Janesville. I had more dropped calls in one week than 10 years with US Cellular. when my contract is up - goodbye to verizon

Rotamer Rd. / Hwy. 26 intersection, Janesville, WI 53546 Thu Aug 30, 2007

Just received this new PPC 6800 Mogul by HTC and there is absolutely no reception, roaming or otherwise in most of the north end of Janesville through to Milton. Service here is horrible and Sprint says they will not do anything about it. Funny thing is I was on the Nextel network prior to this and had excellent service in this area. Basically same company but different signals.

Hwy. 19 / Beuthin Rd. intersection, Mazomanie, WI 53560 Thu Dec 02, 2010

Most of the time, I get no coverage here or along Hwy. 19 though occasionally I get "out of Network". Also had intermittent reception along Hwy. 14 between Cross Plains and Mazomanie and drop most calls. AT&T works well for me when I commute between WI and SC, but around here it's lousy.

Phone Model:
Nokia 6061 - GSM
Weigands Bay Area Along Wisconsin River, Merrimac, WI 53561 Sat Jun 17, 2006

Just switched calling plan yesterday to get GSM and newer phone for the features. I though GSM would get better reception. WRONG! My old TDMA phone at least somewhat worked in this marginal reception area. This GSM phone does not work at all until I drive 5 miles to the ferry, or drive to the Baraboo side of Devil's Lake, or south to Prairie du Sac. Getting rid of this GSM phone, and will probably look for a new service as well. ATT Wireless has been ok, even through the Cingular buyout, but they want to push the GSM, which does not work as well in fringe areas where I live and visit.

Rt. 113 and Rt78, Merrimac, WI 53561 Fri Jul 22, 2005

Three years ago Cingular worked OK in the Merrimac area. Since going to GSM, no service from Merrimac to LaCrosse (except the Dells). Sprint works fine through the same area. I have contacted Cingular for the past 3 years with no improvement in service. Service is 2 bars for Cingular in Lodi wisconsin but 0 across the Lake in Merrimac. Very frustrating !
