New to the Wilmington/Leland area — Verizon has been unusable. AT&T or T-Mobile any better here?
I'm either in Leland or Wilmington most of the time and while I almost always show full bars with Verizon, the data connection is basically worthless. Pages don't load and apps time out. Coverage looks good on paper but in practice it's like using a 3G connection from 2009.
Curious if anyone else in the area has had this experience and switched to another of the big carriers.
A few things I care about most:
- Actual usable speeds day-to-day (not just signal strength)
- Coverage across Leland, Wilmington, and the surrounding areas
- Any dead zones worth knowing about
Would love to hear real-world experiences, not just what the coverage maps claim.
Thanks!
