State of Mobile Networks: USA (Feb 2016) from Open Signal

OUCH! AT&T!!! I'm embarrassed and they're bare a$$ed

 

Gotta admit, the only thing that stops me from jumping ship at this point is the free Mexico roaming with AT&T which my wife and step-daughter have taken a liking to.

 

Considering neither Verizon nor T-Mobile have reasonable coverage where I need it, their data speeds don't do anything for me.

I will stick to good old Death Star, I get excellent coverage and data speeds from 25-86.

Not complaining or thinking about jumping ship.

Your data will now throttled after that comment

 

Yup, I'm not jumping ship from AT&T anytime soon either. I was with them WAY back when it was owned by the Atlanta AT&T, back around 1994, when I got my first phone at Good Guys in Modesto, CA. Their service is very good where I live and I've traveled up and down the Calif and Ore. coastlines with them. Yes, there are dead spots, but that's true of any carrier along the coast.

 

Here, Verizon has my business, only because of the data plan. Verizon, AT&T are coverage kings. T-Mobile has come on strong with data. Haven't tested with Sprint, but according to their maps, their 3G Coverage has been beefed up.

@KevinJames, AT&T maintains its wireless headquarters in Atlanta, to this day. I think they had to as a part of the Cingular merger a decade ago. I think their building is just north of Atlanta, to be precise.

When AT&T bought Cricket, they created a Cricket HQ in Atlanta for it also.

So fear not lol

@QLR:

I did not know that. I thought they moved everything to Texas after SBC "acquired" (cannibalized their former parent) AT&T.

 

I get good coverage and speed with AT&T, similar to what CDG mentioned, 30-75 normally. I was just at a construction site for 2 weeks in Des Plaines, IL next to their Metra train station and the AT&T data speed was terrible. I was getting 5.49 down and 7.32 up with a ping of 39. That's the worse I have had from AT&T in the Chicagoland area.
