I don't think I could blame any cellular carrier for not working in the basement. If it was my T-Mobile SIM, it would not work either.

The only time I ever watched The X-Files on the TV, he was trapped in a steel shipping container buried in the middle of the desert

He picked up his phone and made a call

People told me the programme was a bit off the wall, but that was ridiculous

Like the recent movie Battleship. Their depiction of space aliens was completely believable. Their depiction of the US Navy was completely beyond belief.

Yeah but they used Nextel phones. I do remember that scene. It was a metal railroad boxcar buried out in the middle of the desert and the phone worked from inside. Obviously, the series' writers had never lived in the country. I'm in the hills of rural New Hampshire at the moment. No T-Mobile, no ATT, no GSM at all. Verizon is the only carrier with a usable signal and it comes and goes.

P.S. Yesterday I was in downtown Boston and my Telna phone flipped around between working, "No Access to Net", and "Unregistered SIM" at random intervals. Even turning it off and on did not always fix the problem.
