<p>Do any current students have Verizon? If so, how well does it work on- campus compared to Cingular?</p>
<p>both of them work pretty good on campus....but..cingular has towers actually on campus as opposed to verizon who's towers are off campus in chapel hill somewhere....also cingular has a great plan throught the CWI program... <a href="http://www.unc.edu/cwi%5B/url%5D">www.unc.edu/cwi</a>....</p>
<p>how about nextel? Also when I go to the wireless iniciative site it directs me to the cingular website. Is the college plan different than the plans offered throught the cingular website?</p>
<p>go to <a href="http://studentcentral.unc.edu%5B/url%5D">http://studentcentral.unc.edu</a> and then click on signup for carolina wireless initiative under telecom services</p>
<p>I went to that website, but thereis no CWI listed anywhere.</p>
<p>I get much better reception from Verizon on campus than I ever get in my apartment in Carrboro or many other places in the Triangle area!</p>

<p>verizon is pretty decent once you get north of kenan stadium, but once you get into the south campus dorms, it pretty much is nil. also, it fluctuates in the pit, which can be frustrating. excellent in polk place, mccorkle place, and franklin street, though.</p>
