Which cell provider works best on Treasure Coast? (Orlando, Port St. Lucie: beach, radio)

What works best for you along the coast from Vero Beach down to PBI? Is it Verizon, T-Mobile, At&T, etc?

Thanks

We have T-Mobile and have not had any issues in the Port St. Lucie, West Palm and Orlando areas.

Here is a good independent map that lets you compare all service providers. Looks like all the big names have good service in our area. You only find issues with the smaller companies based on this map.

Thanks, good to know that all work well. What about beaches specifically? Any issues when enjoying some of the less populated beaches?

And maybe boaters can chime in on this. I know that if I go out fishing on a boat, signal will diminish as I go further out. But what service is better in that respect?

Thank you!

Ok. T-Mobile has provided me with service much further out than ATT.

Your coverage is basically going to depend on the towers. All of the carriers are on them. As far as water, there won't be as much cell coverage because the towers are directing to populated areas. Get a radio on your boat.

In SF you had a lot of hills so I'm sure your cell phone took a hit all the time. Here we are totally flat.

I had Sprint for years and was always having problems. Switched to Verizon--not a single problem. ATT I left behind a long time ago

T-Mobile will give you less coverage - although they did just merge with Sprint, but I will never go back.
