I am trying to find the best cell phone coverage in Frisco (around Eldorado & Teel Pkwy). I am sick of dropped calls in my home, and little to no bars. Please tell me what carriers consistently provide good signal strength INSIDE your Frisco home, or which ones don't so I know which ones to avoid. I am so worried about getting locked into a 2 yr contract with unreliable service, and the no-contract phones are the ones I'm having trouble with now. Help!

Not Verizon. Great coverage out and about, but barely 1 bar when I step into my house...

When you get a new phone you usually have the option to opt out for 15 days maybe thirty. I don't know who your provider is now but I live in East Dallas and the large buildings on Central at NWest Highway block almost all the high speed coverage. Yes there are dead spots for all in some places.

Maybe you should talk to someone about the 3G MicroCell. My brother who live outside Bryan,TX loves his, but I don't have any personal experience. Maybe Verizon has something like this as well.

AT&T 3G MicroCell - Wireless Signal Booster - Wireless from AT&T

Thanks everyone! I will definitely check out that 3G MicroCell; I've never heard of it before. I think I've narrowed it down to T-Mobile or AT&T, so if anyone has experiences with these carriers indoors in Frisco, I'd love to hear it!

AT&T is headquartered in Dallas (although not the wireless division itself). General consensus is that they have the best service in the area.
