we have a problem with a dead spot in our house. Had to buy something called a booster to boost the signal. My husband uses his phone as a hot spot in order to get internet, but even then it doesn't work very well. Any suggestions?

2 Out of 5 (2 stars) | 101 and Rollins Rd., Burlingame, CA 94010 |

Never have 4G reception. Dropped calls and 1-2 bars is the norm. Call quality is excellent but calls do get dropped or just nevr go through. Data is hit or miss. Moved from San Mateo / Fostr City border area where I never had reception issues. Very disappointed about the amount I pay per month (nearly $200 for unlimited text and data) to have such shoddy never 4G service. Considering giving up on cell phones altogether. Other companies don't look that great either.

1 Out of 5 (1 star) | El Camino Real | Arastradero Rd., Palo Alto, CA 94306 |

Almost never had more than 1-2 bars at my place near Arastradero Rd.and El Camino. I went to them a changed the SIM card and still didn't make a difference. Never finished a phone call at my place without it getting dropped. I didn't even have full reception at AT&T store in Page Mill and El Camino. I ended up returning my phone and plan within the first month and switched to T-Mobile.

We got the microcell at home but even with it, calls tend to drop and signal fluctuates. Once we leave the house, the signal drops to 1 to 2 bars and remains that way throughout most of Palo Alto.

I don't recall ever having a problem talking or dropping calls. 3G data speeds and connection was great and reliable. 4G / LTE was exceptionally fast and I FINALLY reliable :) It wasn't a year ago but I don't have any problems staying connected and downloading is fast!

4 Out of 5 (4 stars) | Everglades Dr. | Park Pacifica Ave., Pacifica, CA 94044 |

Chose T-Mobile years ago because a) it works in and around my home, and b) customer service is quite good. Thinking of getting an iPhone when T-Mobile offers it, supposedly in 2013.

I work at Stanford and my reception with Verizon wireless is virtually non existant. Also when driving home I get no service on Alpine road and on interstate 280 / Palo Alto area. I have a use a brand new Galaxy S3. families at the hospital with Verizon service are also always complaining about how they cannot find a signal here.

Sitting in the Whole Foods pkg lot, I received 4G-LTE,strong signal, November. Maybe the tower is close to the nearby San Mateo Police Station?
