Re: For most, not worth it. I would go even further than that.
Since *MY* broadband connection is now alleviating strain on *THEIR* cell tower network, the device should be free and I should receive a credit on my monthly cell phone bill.
Why should I pay anything to fix a problem with their cell coverage? |

| Yeah...its their problem!!! Why should I have to pay..this sucks...I expect to have 4 bars everywhere I go.
Sure, lets put cell towers everywhere. Do you have space in your backyard for one? Do you want it there? Do your neighbors want it there? Lets put them on every street corner (oh wait, there were payphones there at onetime and now they are gone).
Get a satellite phone…oh wait, its cloud outside I can’t use it. I have tree in the line of sight. There is a building in the way. And yes, I have one and we have those problems
Its not perfect. |

Riverhead, NY | Yes - I do want them to put a cell tower in my backyard. You do know they pay something ridiculous like 85% of your property taxes - at a minimum - and will usually give you some other financial incentive ($$) and I personally know someone who has Spring unlimited service - for life.
They can put as many towers in my backyard as they like!!! |

Riverhead, NY | Absolutely not! Would have NEVER bought the house had I!
I know they'd never be interested in a cell tower in my yard, though. My friend a short distance away has a farm and they put one there. |

I know someone who has a US Cellular site on their property and gets $1000 a month to rent it to them! |
