Question:
It is currently 3/29/2024.
What is Verizon doing to improve service in Little Elm TX and is there a schedule?
What is the Verizon owned tower deployment plan for Little Elm and Denton TX, or is Verizon planning on leasing dark fiber to temp towers, or leasing space on existing towers in the area.?
Some Context & Details:
Just moved to Little Elm TX and was surprised to have only 1 (sometimes 2) bar(s) on my brand new Samsun S28 Ultra 5G phone. Makes it impossible to use the data, and frequently calls drop. The entire Highway 380 corridor is undergoing explosive growth from University of North Texas in Denton east towards McKinney TX (as are many of the areas within an hour outside of Dallas TX I see). I don't want to change carriers because for exact opposite reason years ago I left AT&T and went to Verizon because I lived in an area where there were no AT&T towers. I work for a carrier and lots of the work we do is either dark fiber or lit services to Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile towers in middle America backhauling their circuits back to central offices where they can then interconnect back into their main voice network (DWDM transport or 100G ethernet). I am surprised that in 2024 the Verizon cell phone coverage on a new phone is so poor in Little Elm TX.
