Read That Coverage Map–Carefully

When talking cellular coverage, the map means everything and nothing. You see dark green shaded areas, with blotches of lighter green here and there. Very few people actually pay attention to what the Solavei coverage map looks like nor, what it means. Sadly, this ends up with many people frustrated and upset about their phone coverage, even though it was there from the start. So, is your phone really going to work in your house? Let’s take a look at the coverage descriptions and find out.

Excellent: You can usually connect in most buildings, homes, cars and outdoors.
This means you can make calls from most locations inside buildings and out doors. This is the DARK GREEN area on the coverage map.

Very Good: You can usually connect in many buildings, homes, cars and outdoors.
This means you can make call from inside some types of buildings, but not all. If you have a concrete structure, your signal will be weak. If you have a wireless network at home, those frequencies may block you signal. Overall, you will still be happy, but it isn’t going to be perfect. These areas are a MEDIUM GREEN color on the map.

Good: You can usually connect in some buildings, homes, cars and outdoors.
This is when your coverage really begins to decline. You start having to go out on the patio to make calls, send texts from certain places in the house and your device jumps from 1 bar of 4G data down to 2 bars of 2G data regularly. This is the lowest level of coverage that I recommend anyone consider using. Anything less will just start to get ugly quickly. This is shows with a LIGHT GREEN color on the map.

Satisfactory: You can usually connect outdoors, sometimes in cars and maybe in buildings.
This is where service becomes a bit unusable. Calls begin to drop based on which way you turn your body. Text message fail and picture messages have no chance of coming through. These areas are the ones that Solavei members should try and avoid as home coverage areas. These areas are shown by a MINT GREEN color on the map.

When you get down to 2G only or Service Partner areas, you should just depend on your device for emergency use only. Most of the time going through these areas, your device will struggle to find a signal if moving, it will become very erratic at pulling emails and data and is usually better off just being shut down.

Once you start to understand what the coverage maps mean, and not just look to see if you are in a green area, you will see the reasons for the lack of service in some places. By becoming more knowledgeable about your Solavei coverage, you can probably help your downline with theirs if they need it as well.
