I've discussed the cell phone issue with the site owner. I wish it could be made as simple as 'this works, that does not'.
There have been reviews of our camp that say cell service was great, with this carrier, the next its not, same carrier.
In a hilly camp like ours, signal strength varies greatly if you are under or on top of the hill. Carrier seems to make little difference as much as the phone itself, as the carriers here have reciprocity on thier towers.
I do not think there is any fair way to travelers or camps on rvpr to place this in a simple box, just like wifi, There are too many variables of equipment, some camp responsibility, some carrier, some weather, some provider, some yours within the walls of your unit. Research 'faraday cage' to learn of this limitation in your unit.
How could a camp be reviewed fairly on these many factors they have no control of?
