Anyone know shit about cell phone towers? Sprint is claiming

What do you mean by shit for coverage?
Also, they could just be lying to you so you stay with Sprint
Also, where do you live?

you can buy cell reception boosters, but you need to install an ariel onto you house and will be limited to yout house.

Short of getting Sprint to increase coverage you are fucked.

Used to install towers if that helps :)

I live in NJ. The coverage is literally fine everywhere outside of the area surrounding my apartment complex. There's a shit load of trees because it's by a park, don't know if that's cutting into it, but as soon as I get on the road near my place the signal just drops.

By "drops" I mean from speed tests it goes from 10ish MBPs to 0.5 and less, and the call quality drops sharply.

Again, the coverage is FINE except in my area surrounding my apartment, even outside of it. I can't even use my cell service in my apartment, have to use WiFi calling/data.

Just want to mention, by outside of the area I only mean like 5-8 minutes out. There's a Sprint store that distance from my place and the coverage is stellar.

What provider? My company did 95% Verizon

I just did a reception test and I'm getting like -100 or lower dBm... Just to verify it wasn't the phone's antenna I put the sim in another phone to try and it's about the same.

I'm fucked aren't I?

How is a cartoon mermaid going to boost your cellphone reception??

You could bitch to sprint or throw down 75$ to get a VOIP femtocell, assumming you have good internet.

It basically intercepts your cell communications and routes them through the internet.

I mean I've got a good internet connection and I'm already using wifi calling and shit. It's just horrendous coverage. If my internet or power goes out I basically have no service. I don't know what the fuck I'm paying for at that point.

Is any fucking provider transmitting at that area ffs

I just came over from AT&T and my signal with them was fairly low in this area too. Which prompted me to change carriers. It just got worse with Sprint.

Only problem is I got a great deal on the phone and don't want to fucking switch carriers AGAIN. AT&T is also expensive as fuck for unlimited data.

sprint is garbage

sadly they were the only ones offering unlimited data...on a business account...using 3rd party promotional loopholes

>mfw 9Mb down

Sprint is aids. They always claim they cover your area, but unless you live in a city you get no coverage.
