AT&T and no problems anywhere, even in a large stucco home. Have lived in 3 villages and no issues anywhere. No extender used.

Once we are outside it is no problem. Just sayin lived in 2 other homes in The Villages and no problem with AT&T, most people in our neighborhood have some type of unit to help with coverage inside because most of us are against a wooded preserve with lots of trees also. We are south of Hillsborough also.

Just a question. Did you say that visitors to your home with other phone plans can hook up to your Microcell unit?

Visitor's cell phones will use the Microcell box if they are an AT&T customer and you add them to the on-line approved user list. This is easy to do.

I live in Bonita and have Verizon. I currently have 2 bars. There are times , even with the extender, I have to go to the window, standing up, to have an conversation. Looking for an replacement supplier.

Our home is on Summerchase Loop which is across from the Savannah Center... north? I haven't been there yet.

AT&T works fine for us in Hadley and all over.

The October POA Bulletin which I just received this AM provides a Verizon update. They report a new site at Micro Racetrack Road was recently added. Another new site at Sumter Landing is due for activation this month. Finally two more cell sites - timing/location TBD - are due in 2016.

Much earlier, the POA had asked for input from Villagers so they could address reception issues with Verizon. Don't know if this was instrumental in the new sites added/to be added, but it does appear that Verizon is working to fix reception problems in the southern portion of the Villages.

I live down near Brownwood and have not had any trouble with Verizon reception.

Dunedin area Verizon 6+ Outside 3 bars but never LTE here, inside CBS home sometimes 3 bars, usually 1-2 bars and frequent complaints. Love Verizon everywhere but here.
FYI interested in whether other Verizon customers notice if they are getting full LTE SVC throughout there area.

had metro with no problems in Jax., moved here and coverage was spotty at best. No problems with our new verizon phones in dunedin

Have Verizon on a iPhone 6+ and have lost calls on 301 and 466 between Morse and Buena Vista. Otherwise good coverage. Sitting in Hillsboro I have two bars as I write this.
