Default Cell phone service problems

There was a cellphone outage in the Villages about 3 to 4 weeks ago (early November?). Ever since that time our cell service has been spotty with lots of dropped calls. Anyone else having this problem?

Have you contacted your cell phone service provider, they may not be aware of the situation.

A few weeks ago, my phone stopped allowing me to browse the Internet when not connected to wifi. But, I could still make calls. I took it to the Xfinity store and they recommended taking it to the Geek Squad. I didn't think the problem was with the phone, so I asked Xfinity to replace the SIM card and it was immediately fixed. Lesson learned.

That's to simple a solution

Need more info but try cold booting your phone and resetting network settings.

A Google search can tell you how
