Very Cool AT&T Cell Towers

[s8film40]

The website claims that there are 9,924 towers listed and if you download the complete list it confirms this. Supposedly AT&T owns around 50,000. So it looks like less than 20% are listed, this explains why so few are showing up.

No no no no. Cell towers, even GSM, can go as far as 20 miles.

I will accept that as true. But it does not change the fact that I know for a fact that tons of towers are missing off that map. I personally know of 3 towers with in 1 mile of my house that my phone will connect to. Really the closes tower is about 800 meters away.

That chart does not show a single one of those. I am on AT&T.

wow

i have at least 24 towers within 10 miles

No Wonder...

LoL...wow, for the longest time, I thought people were just whiny bitches and loved to hear themselves cry and complain. But seeing some other locations' maps, in contrast to mine, definitely shut me up. Apparently AT&T has some big love for my town. No wonder I never experience crappy service.

Lol... wow, really well covered, then again, Orlando is a tourist town, it has to be that way or people would get mad.

 

[kas23]

Great, there 2 towers in the whole Cincinnati area. No wonder I never get good service.

 

[sp219]

Only one in my town, but it's literally less than a mile away from my house -- had no idea it was an AT&T tower, I drive by it every day. haha]

Guess that explains the 5 mb download and 1.5 mbit upload on 3G.

 

[RMXO]

There are 13 towers in my area but I still get no signal at my apartments, WTFrak?

Oh to have that level of service! Maybe I need to relocate.

according to the search there are no towers in Dallas...ATT is headquartered in Dallas...It actually goes as far as saying there are none in Texas...at all.

See Map Below.

Hmm. That's not what I got on my search. I have 4 towers showing within 5 mile search of my zip code. One of which is less than 1/2 mile from my house. Which is cool, except that in my house I get 2-3 dropped calls (with the ever friendly 'Call Failed message) per day on my 3Gs.....

Interesting by looking at the map, I see the closest tower is 9 miles away from me. I guess that explains why i get great reception here but drive 1 mile and get nothing. Seems like they stopped covering NJ from where I live and down till it hits NY

Again, its important to note that this map only shows AT&T owned towers that have space available for others to use. AT&T also leases space from other providers on their towers, and these are not reflected on the maps (since this isn't the primary reason for this website).

Using the zip code doesn't seem to work right. I was only able to find cell towers by latitude and longitude.

 

[insidmal]

6 within about 20 miles.. and i thought my constant 5 bars was a glitch

Exactly. And I'll note that if that's the real number of cell sites for AT&T in Orlando, I'd be shocked, they need 2-3X more than that for any sort of decent coverage and capacity.

Use the map instead of the search, it works better.

Here's the AT&T coverage viewer for your perusal...

[melterx12]

And keep in mind it only list 20% of AT&T owned towers. This is by no means even close to determining what type of signal you should be getting.

I just did a search for where I am (Corpus Christi, TX) and it came up with several for just here.

 

[cmschmidt]

See Map Below.

weird. I searched using my full address, my zip only, and Texas only and it could find a single tower. Something must have been screwy when i was doing my search.

I live in downtown dallas, and have all those towers around me and most of the time barely get half a megabit....wtf.

 

[dunk50]

Just checked mine and it does not list any within 20 miles.

The AT&T coverage map shows me in the BEST covered area by MILES. I say BS. I've had AT&T for years and I always only get 1 to 2 bars. Phone function verified that. Dropped calls etc but alas I wanted an iphone and left Verizon. Miss Verizons coverage (in my area anyway) but love my iphone (when it works). I'm into blaming AT&T for half my problems with their inflated coverage maps and Apple partially for their antenna. No solution in sight so I will live with it.

 

[itsjared]

Even though this does not include leased towers or towers available for co-location it's still a good idea of general coverage in an area. At least where applicable.

 

[Goaliegeek]

Wow. There's a tower about .8 miles from me, right down the street, and I still get a meh signal and crappy a$$ speeds.
