It would help if you tell us which village you live in. A tower down south won't help you much if you live up north. This is a BIG place.
Honestly, what will REALLY HELP is that you call AT&T.

They already do this. At least I'm sure about the water tower next to Turtle Mound. I talked to a contractor who was upgrading Sprint equipment on that tower.

A free app called opensignal will show you all towers

A new one is up in the air at the new Law Enforcement building at Pinellas; no antennas on it yet.

We have great cell service all over The Villages. We have Verizon.

First I have read this in many years.

I have noticed that service (Verizon) is fair at best, the very poor in the Spanish Springs area, I have called Verizon on this with no success so far.

Thanks. It shows that the AT&T signal in the Village of Lake Deaton is weak at best. So, I am not the only one.

Call AT&T and get a microcell for no cost (calls routed through your router). If you have a newer cellphone, you can enable WiFI calling on your cell phone (via your router).

The microcell is not an option as it’s no longer made. And , my iPhone 5 &5s will not do WiFI calling through AT&T. AT&T suggests that I should upgrade both phones to 7 as it will only cost me $1300 to then receive a strong AT&T signal using WiFI calling.

AT&T still offers the microcell on their website. I have one so I know it is still supported. AT&T supports WiFI calling on the iPhone 6s.

You're very welcome. Contrary to what some profess, youth and wisdom can peaceful coexist.

For what its worth, I have an AT&T MicroCell than I am not using anymore that I'd be happy to give away. The only trouble is I won't be back to TV until October. op, let me know if you want it so I can be sure to pack it into the car when we head down.
