I live in the Village of Lake Deaton, just east of Brownwood, and have ATT. The overage is marginal - 1 or 2 bars. In our previous home (not in The Villages) we tried the ATT micro-cell box. I found it to be poorly engineered as it consistently dropped the 5-bar micro-cell signal for a weaker cell-tower signal. Second level support at ATT told me they work best when you have no cell-tower coverage and not so great when you have poor cell-tower coverage because of the issue I experienced. I sent it back. Perhaps they work better now. For those who aren't familiar with it, it creates a small cell zone in your house and routes the call through your broadband internet connection.

I received a credit for a micro-tower and now have great coverage. I'm not sure they are still giving the credit but it's worth a try.
