4G LTE & 5G Coverage In Fremont

The table below shows the proportion of Fremont with coverage from different cellular technologies.
Network4G Coverage5G Coverage
AT&T98%96%
T-Mobile97%90%
Verizon99%98%
Dish0%68%
Don't be alarmed by Dish's lack of 4G coverage in Fremont. Dish has a newly-built network that's 5G-only.

US Cellular And Dish Roaming Coverage

US Cellular does not have native coverage in Fremont. However, some US Cellular subscribers may still have coverage in Fremont thanks to roaming agreements.

The 68% figure for Dish may understate what subscribers in Fremont experience after accounting for roaming agreements.

Millimeter Wave 5G

Parts of Fremont have millimeter wave 5G coverage. This novel celluar technology offers extremely fast speeds, but the coverage potential is limited. Millimeter waves aren't well-suited for traveling long distances.

Millimeter wave coverage in Fremont is likely sparse (mostly limited to dense, outdoor areas like popular parks or sports stadiums).

Fremont Cell Signal Strength

There are 1,868 map hexes within the census-defined boundaries of Fremont. 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.

NetworkStrongDecentWeakNone
AT&T9%48%41%2%
T-Mobile25%56%17%2%
Verizon21%74%4%1%
Dish1%32%35%32%

For most purposes, decent signals are perfectly sufficient. Weak or non-existent signals cause far greater degradation in user experience.
