3G Mobile Broadband Coverage Video
There are several tools to help check what kind of signal any location is going to get . To start, go to coverage maps on our site to determine if there is 3G mobile internet coverage at that specific address.
The maps will tell you if there is 3G Mobile Broadband Internet service in that area, but not any specific info on how strong that signal is. For this, a common tool we can use is your cell phone. You need to have the same carrier for this info to do you any good. If you want to check for Verizon Internet coverage, you would need a Verizon cell phone.
For the next step, just look at your signal on the phone to see the bars. However, this is sometimes not detailed enough info. Most phones will have a way to find the dBm level or RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) On a Blackberry for example, go to Options, then Status.
The Signal is the first item, and it will give you a numerical reading that is more accurate that just signal bars. The lower the number the better. 60’s and 70’s are great, 80’s are ok, the 90s are getting poor and anything over 100 is usually going to have fairly poor, bad service, or no service without the help of an Antenna or Amplifier.
