Anyone know why ATT service is unusable at TS?

Can occasionally get a txt thru but never a call. Simply overloaded network? Can any improvement be made if ATT wanted to do something?

This was one of the main reasons I switched to Verizon. I love being able to use my phone at a game.

Are any of the other wireless services usable at TS on gameday?

When I had sprint a couple years ago I could get decent service in the stadium, at least better than Att

Think about 90,000 phones pinging off one tower

Get off the phone and watch the game.

I had full service in the northeast corner all game.

If you have a LTE device then the internet works just fine. Too many people using 3g

Mine worked great at the North Texas game and I have ATT

Tiger Stadium and the campus as a whole relies on the cell infrastructure around the city and it is not intended for extremely heavy usage.

a couple of years ago, they would drag in a mobile cell tower and set it up around the old alex box...seemed to help quite a bit...
haven't seen it in a couple of years, though...

Cause Verizon is official wireless for the LSU Tigers

I was experiencing the same problem when I noticed the guy next to me sending and receiving text messages from his iPhone. If you have the iPhone 4 you can go to settings and turn 3G off. This will allow you to text on EDGE. It worked for my son but unfortunately it did not work on my 4S. (Hope this helps).

AT&T actually has a cellsite in the statium. If you were to go sit in the stadium alone you would be able surf w/4G w/ no issues. However, once you pack in 92K, you are lucky to even make a phone call.
The best analogy would be the Interstate. The normal speed limit is 70mph. As traffic picks up, your speed is limited. If there is a bad wreck, traffic crawls. These wireless companies have to open up their bandwith pipeline in areas like Tiger Stadium to allow more traffic to flow on a very congested network.
P.S: Verizon is the best!

Because Verizon is the official wireless provider of LSU Athletics.

I have had NO problems using all functions of my ATT Galaxy S3 for the first two games. Must be the LTE.
