OpenSignal VS Mozilla Stumbler

Check cellmapper.net this is the site I always go to ..... Secoond to opensignal.com to get "real device mapping"..... unfortunately both sites are only good as the "users" who have used their respective "apps" around your locale.....though. but through word of mouth the coverage mapping will get better.

I always tell people about opensignal.com as well as cellmapper.net if they are curious "which network is the best" - it can be complicated for some customers! So tread lightyly or you will end up in "tech support hell" with an 80 year old....lol. Source: over 2 years ago

Have you checkd cellmapper.net? or opensignal.com? Unfurtnately the service(s) are only as good as the people that have used the "apps" in that region though....I know when I switched from Virgin Mobile USA to metro years ago, and then to family mobile I used both sites to compare coverage, and it's kinda technical, but interesting....to check your home address, work address, etc.....it's definitely far more...

But I'd defintely play around with cellmapper.net and opensignal.com in your local area and see, but verizon is pretttty solid. Source: about 3 years ago

There are location services that use the strength of nearby wifi, and Bluetooth beacons to guess where you are by comparing what you phone sees with a massive database, such as the Mozilla Location Services (link) but they won't work if you are in the middle of nowhere. Source: 11 months ago

This means that MLS falls back to using the sender's IP address to determine the location. So it being hundreds of kilometers off is definitely in the realm of possibilities. Does this device have wifi? Is it turned on? Source: about 1 year ago

One source of location data are wifi access points. Geoclue sends the MAC addresses and signal strengths of the access points that your system sees at the moment to a service operated by Mozilla https://location.services.mozilla.com/. That service uses that data to calculate your approximate location based on a database of access point locations. So if you're using the same access point now that you used in your...

It ostensibly functions by talking to other providers, such as Mozilla Location Services (MLS) to do the exact same process. So you're just trusting Mozilla (and others) with your information rather than Google. Source: over 1 year ago
