Issues with 3g Coverage on Long Island

Jul 15, 2008, 9:50 AM

I live in Freeport (Long Island) and work in Mineola. On the coverage map, my address in Freeport is on the cusp of 3g/Edge but it isn't a big deal since I have wifi. The coverage map has Mineola in all blue so I thought I'd be fine. Not so much. I get to work, I have 1 bar with 3g and within 15 minutes it switches to edge (although I do have full service). Kind of pointless to have a 3g phone if it isn't going to get 3g service. Just wondering if anyone else is having similar problems. I really thought Long Island would have better coverage than what I've been seeing 😢

I live about twenty minutes outside of Center City Philadelphia and the AT&T map shows 3G coverage in my area but it is running on edge mostly. AT&T SUCKS! The IPhone is being returned and I am terminating my account with AT&T. This is beyond a total joke.
