Very weak or no mobile signal in Federal Way, WA

I've been Verizon customer for last 6 years... my phone works fine all other places but my home. The reason why I switch to Verizon was the "Coverage" advantage over other networks. Problem of weak signal was existed form the day 1... I thought Verizon will improve the "Coverage" situation in near future. I was wrong...My phone can't even display the single bar(Signal). I can get "3G" 1 bar if I'm lucky to find a spot in Federal Way, WA where I live... I don't make or receive lot of calls but, when I needed to connect with someone, I get frustrated. How many more years do I have to wait to get "Proper" service? Keep delaying "WiFi calling" service when other companies willing to support...Is there anyone out there having the same "Weak signal" problem in Federal Way, WA?

  • Vibration on samsung galaxy 5 is very weak - even on high.

    I just upgraded to galaxy 5 from galaxy 3.  The vibration on the 3 was good and strong.  The 5's vibration mode is VERY weak.  Does anyone know of a way to increase it?
    Thanks

    Have you checked your settings.? Look in Settings >>  Volume there should be some options to choose from in there I'll add in my post a Link to the Online Manual

  • I bought my iPhone 4 open line in Vancouver, Canada last week for use here in my home base in Bangkok, Thailand.  But when I tried using my Thai sim, I get a very weak signal, if not a weak signal, then a no service status.  What do I do?

    I bought my iPhone 4 open line in Vancouver, Canada last week for use here in my home base in Bangkok, Thailand.  But when I tried using my Thai sim, I get a very weak signal, if not a weak signal, then a no service status.  I also have very weak wifi reception.  What do I do?
    I already tried the following:
    a. Turned the phone off and then on.
    b. Checked all wifi connections – no problem given that all our laptops and desktops can connect seamlessly.
    c. I tried restoring the phone to original factory settings via itunes
    d. Tried resetting the phone.
    e.     Tried different microsims from all networks
    f. However, all methods failed given that the network reception is very weak and often reflects – “no service”.  And with regards to the wifi reception It has difficulty in reading even the signal right in front of the wifi router.
    I went to two Apple resellers here in Bangkok and requested that they please look at my Iphone and have it serviced.  I was frustrated when they said that given that I bought my phone in Canada, they are not able to support me and should instead try to contact the Apple store in Canada. 
    I went to apple.ca website and went to the expresslane support and I was said to register and callback.  Tried calling the 1800 number but given that I was in Thailand I had difficulty getting a connection.

  • Very weak signal

    Hello
    I have just moved, and in last home the airport express sent a strong signal to my iBook and my G5.
    Now that I have moved (and I added the connection to my speakers) the signal is very weak (but working) on my G5 but full signal on the iBook.
    I checked Airport Admin and increased robustness also I don't think it's other items that may cause interference.
    The Express is now on the same shelf as my TV, DVD, stereo, but I don't think that should matter should it?
    Please help

    It is very possible that you may have some form of Wi-Fi interference in the immediate area that is preventing you from getting a good clean signal.
    I suggest you perform a simple site survey, using utilities like KisMAC, MacStumbler, iStumbler, or IPNetMonitorX to determine potential areas of interference...and then, try to either eliminate or significantly reduce them.

  • E90 Very weak WiFi signal

    My E90 has a VERY weak WiFi signal, and in places I regularly use a 9500 and my laptop with no problem, my E90 simply will not work e.g. from first floor to ground floor. If I move closer to the Wireless router, then it is fine on both Email and Web.
    So it seems purely that the strength on E90 is far weaker than 9500.
    Has anyone else found this?
    Is there any way to alter signal strength in the various WiFi settings?
    Or is this yet another shortcoming of E90 over 9500?

    Yes I already altered Tx power settings. Thanks for suggestion. Makes no difference.
    It really seems this E90 just has a vastly lower power WiFi rating than my 9500.
    It is very tedious to be unable to connect even within one's own home and frankly renders the phone totally useless, quite apart from all the other problems well documented on here.
    I think I can see why so many are up for sale on Ebay.
    Does anyone at Nokia read these discussion pages and does anyone care that their products seem to fall short in SO MANY aspects?!
    That's right, it seems no one reads these discussion.
    However, if u have ur problem solved, pls advise

  • Very weak WLAN signal on Satellite Pro L10

    Hi,
    I have a Sat Pro L10 that came without a mini pci wireless card so I bought and installed one and fitted internal antenna behind the screen. When I am in the same room as the router I have a brilliant connection but as soon as I leave the room I lose it all together. The router is fine as other people have no problem connecting to it. The card I bought is made by Agere but came labelled as Toshiba, I have updated the driver to the newest I could find which is june 2002.
    Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated as I'm sick of dragging this wire around with me.

    Hi
    I think there is no much to do. I think the environment has a strong influence on the Wlan signal receiving. Its the same issue like yours.
    My brother uses the Wlan at home and the signal is strong enough if he is in the same room but in other rooms the signal is very weak. But at my home he can receives the WLan signals without any problems. The signal is strong also if he is in different rooms
    I think the room walls are the reason for the weak signal.
    But you could check the Wlan card properties in the device manager. There you could change some settings in the Advanced tab. For example disable the power saving, etc

  • Airport Extreme (5 Gen) suddenly very weak Wifi signal

    Hello, everyone.  I have a 5th generation Airport Extreme that was working fine until a few days ago.  My power had gone out, and since then I am getting a very weak Wifi signal.  The network still appears and connects on all of my devices.  However, it is dreadfully slow (0.3 MB/s per Speedtest.net), whereas before it was 50 MB/s.  I have tried resetting to factory settings and opening up the option to 5GHz.  The 5 GHz wireless network works just fine on my iMac.  It doesn't show up as an option on my iPhone, though, and that's what's really bugging me.
    I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem and can help me out.  Of course, my phone support expired a few months ago and now they want $19 for a tech call.  Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Reset to factory again.
    Setup again using all short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric. If you were doing this make sure you use different names. Empty all the old names from the clients so they start over with fresh clean setup for wifi.
    Use a different name for 5ghz.
    Use fixed channels.. try 1, 6, 11 for 2.4ghz and try 36, and 150 for 5ghz.. around about.. exact channel is not such a big thing for 5ghz.
    Check the link speed and make sure it is full speed if you are in the same room as the AE.
    Test by copying a file on the local lan.. rather than testing to internet which could be a totally unrelated issue.
    Test by using ethernet only on a computer plugged into the AE to see if the internet link has gone slow.

    Linksys EA6700 very very very weak Wifi signal
    Anybody faced such issue with this immature router? I was using E4200, the signal was much better. I thought of upgrading to latest “high-end router”, unfortunately it is not an upgrade it is a rip-off. This router is not stable at all.
    I will switch to NetGear, any recommendations?
    Thanks & best regards,

  • Very weak wifi signal after i change the battery

    i recently change my playbook battery. everything seems perfectly okay except that i have a very weak wifi signal reception. i need to be very near the router just to have the signal. i dont know what went  wrong during the changing of battery process but everything is okay except the very weak wifi signal received. please help.

    Looking at the photos in crackberry forum it's the white antenna cable, antenna is top RH corner as you look at the screen. There may be an antenna component inside the back (according to ifixit)  but the cable terminates in a little pcb possibly marked 3G.  Blue cable seems to be BT and grey is GPS. The TI chip supports all three functions, single cable for each. That is why 802.11n is only 65mbps.
    Come back if that's not correct.
    Thanks to crackberry and ifixit if it is.

  • Very weak one bar signal on iphone 5. callers cannot hear me. HELP

    Very weak one bar signal on iphone 5. callers cannot hear me. Other iphones work good in the same locations. HELP

    A network extender? Not sure what that is.. Sounds like it might help here at home.. But what about outside the house? At work, the store, or just out on the road?
    I'm hopeing this is something that can get fixed.. I hate to think I wasted all this money on something that doesn't work.. Does apple have a return police?
    I think I'll try getting an appointment at the apple store to see if they can fix this issue.
    Thanks for your help.

  • HT4623 After updating Iphone 4s to 6.0 the signal is very weak and the phone drops calls frequently.

    After updating Iphone 4s to 6.0 the signal is very weak and the phone drops calls frequently.

    Based on what?
    "When Apple rolled out iOS 6.1, its first major update to iOS 6, yesterday, it introduced a series of bug fixes, software tweaks for iTunes and Siri and also added LTE support - but none of that was any use to the disconnected and discontented sufferers of a particular iPhone software flaw: greyed-out Wi-Fi."

    Have brand new iphone 4s. Wifi signal is very weak even when very close to router. I have also an iPod Touch and when both are side by side, the iPod wifi signal is excellent and the iPhone wifi signal is very poor??!!! Hardware issue? or software issue? I was hoping it is just a software issue, but...
    Saw may web sites discussing this same issue; many discussions point to hardware problems but there is no official word from Apple about it, which is disapointing !??  Few discussions point to software problem with solutions based on try and error, and they don't seem to work.

    did not help at all; the problem continues the same
