AT&T Cell Service Question

I currently have Verizon and contemplating switch to AT&T but wanted to get first hand feed back about how the cell service is in and around MHK?

Thanks

I have AT&T and it’s excellent. I’ve had no problems with cell service or fiber at the house (except when I hit my fiber line but that’s a different story)

I have at&t for cell and internet and I really don't have any complaints. Pretty affordable, very consistent, never had any reception issues with the cell service.

AT&T service is great pretty much anywhere around town and the county. I had great signal at the Konza biological station/hiking trails south of town . The only place I have ever lost signal in the eastern part of Kansas is one spot on the interstate between MHK and Topeka.

All of the companies will be good around town and on the highways. If you go very rural you'll want verizon most likely as their 4g network is still dominant when it comes to long distance coverage (5g is pretty short range honestly).

You may want to take a look at some of the mvno's (low cost carriers that run on the major networks but have lower costs and generally don't subsidize phones as heavily or at all).

The following is a good way of understanding how they prioritize data and what their tethering policies are.
