4G LTE & 5G Coverage In Duluth
The table below shows the proportion of Duluth with coverage from different cellular technologies.| Network | 4G Coverage | 5G Coverage |
|---|---|---|
| AT&T | 99% | 98% |
| T-Mobile | 98% | 94% |
| Verizon | 94% | 0% |
| Dish | 0% | 86% |
Don't be alarmed by Dish's lack of 4G coverage in Duluth. Dish has a newly-built network that's 5G-only.
US Cellular And Dish Roaming Coverage
US Cellular does not have native coverage in Duluth. However, some US Cellular subscribers may still have coverage in Duluth thanks to roaming agreements.
The 86% figure for Dish may understate what subscribers in Duluth experience after accounting for roaming agreements.
Duluth Cell Signal Strength
There are 1,838 map hexes within the census-defined boundaries of Duluth. The table below shows the proportion of hexes at various levels of signal strength. Where both 4G and 5G coverage is available, data is drawn from whichever technology offers a stronger signal.
| Network | Strong | Decent | Weak | None |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AT&T | 11% | 56% | 32% | 1% |
| T-Mobile | 14% | 61% | 23% | 2% |
| Verizon | 11% | 55% | 28% | 6% |
| Dish | 7% | 55% | 24% | 14% |
For most purposes, decent signals are perfectly sufficient. Weak or non-existent signals cause far greater degradation in user experience.
Due to data-reliability concerns, 199 hexes in Duluth that fall in bodies water, along rivers, or near shorelines are excluded from the table above.
