Most Reliable Wireless Network Just Got Better in Stark County, Ohio
Integration of Verizon Wireless' and Alltel's Networks Delivers Increased Wireless Voice and Data Coverage to the Area
CANTON, Ohio, May 20 -- Verizon Wireless today announced it has completed the integration of its network with that of Alltel in Stark County to provide customers with clearer reception, fewer dropped calls and more coverage, including stronger in-building coverage.
Verizon Wireless' voice and high-speed 3G data network combined with that of Alltel creates the largest wireless network footprint in the United States. The integration in this area enables more customers to use their wireless phones concurrently to make calls; send and receive email and text, picture and video messages; access the Internet; view high-quality videos; and download music, games and ringtones on the nation's most reliable wireless network.
Coverage areas directly affected by the network integration include Alliance, Atwood Lake, Canton, Cairo, Harrisburg, Navarre, North Canton, Paris, Robertsville and Waynesburg.
"The addition of Alltel's network to the Verizon Wireless network provides our customers with unmatched coverage in the area," said Mark Frazier, president -- Ohio/Pennsylvania/West Virginia Region, Verizon Wireless. "Now our high-speed 3G broadband wireless network is the largest and most reliable in the United States, and network reliability is the No. 1 reason customers choose and stay with Verizon Wireless. We are committed to continuing to perfect our network so that our customers in Ohio know they can depend on us every time they use their wireless devices."
Verizon Wireless has been preparing to integrate Alltel's network since completing its purchase of the company last year. Alltel's 3G data network has been upgraded to the latest revision of wireless broadband technology to enable faster delivery of data applications, including email and browsing the Internet.
Verizon Wireless invests more in its network than any other wireless service provider in the United States. The company has spent more than $59 billion since it was formed -- $5.7 billion on average every year -- to increase the coverage and capacity of its premier nationwide network and to add new services. During the first quarter of this year, the company invested nearly $62 million in its Ohio network.
