Looking for opinions about best cell coverage in Wentworth, NH. We will be relocating to Wentworth, NH this Spring. The cell service in that area is not very good. I know that ATT and Verizon have the most towers but when I check coverage maps it looks like T-Mobile has coverage in Wentworth better than either ATT and Verizon. Thank you!

Verizon is the best option, but is on the pricier side.

On my drive through there last Summer going from West to East through Wentworth to get to Plymouth, I don't think I picked up strong ATT coverage until I hit Rumney. Somewhere in Wentworth is where I picked up coverage again. This was on my cell phone playing Pandora.



My Ipad has Verizon, but I didn't check for coverage in Wentworth.

The last time I drove up the 25 through Rumney, Wentworth and Warren, I did not have cell reception the entire drive. There are many places in Grafton County where it will not even eke out a text message. I have Verizon, which is the best coverage for NH.

Cell service in that whole area is terrible, and the coverage maps are all overly optimistic. You'll have service in Plymouth, but it drops off once you move away from the I-93 corridor. Verizon is your best bet, but I'd plan on getting a landline at home.

Yeah, the mountain effect is more noticeable, and that is a very low populated area northwest of Rumney. Better signal areas are far more common in lower elevated areas of adjacent Carroll County that don't have the hills blocking reception in more populous areas of the central or southern Lakes Region.

Many other services use Verizon towers. Straight Talk, Net10, Tracfone, etc. So it can be a low cost as one wants.

One can get one year of service using Verizon towers for as little as $69.00 and that includes an Android 9 smartphone.

Verizion prioritizes network use. Highest priority are Verizon costumers who are on monthly plans. After that it's Verizon prepaid customers. After that, it's third party carriers who use the Verizon network. With how crummy cell coverage is in NH, I chose to be a monthly Verizon customer because every little bit of better service and coverage matters.

I live in Warren full time. AT&T works flawlessly everywhere from Warren to Plymouth. It drops out in Bradford, VT, until Corinth / Topsham area. I have a Verizon cell for work that has no signal within 20-30 minutes of Warren. I would recommend AT&T for sure.
