I drove to Madison and back this weekend. Along the way, I checked every few miles and I found that there was no point between the Twin Cities and Madison (on I-94) where I could get an internet connection with my T-Mobile Nexus 4 -- nothing, ever. In Madison, I had no internet connection -- no G4, no G3, no G-anything, no internet service at all. The phone service seemed to be working at most points along the way, but not always, and it went to roaming at many points. <span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

I was surprised that T-Mobile gives no internet in Madison, nor at any point between the Twin Cities and Madison along I-94. I thought service along major highways was a priority. The phone mostly worked along I-94, but not the internet service. Sprint worked *much* better.<br>

There's limited 2G coverage in town. I ended up getting T-Mobile because I go up there regularly, roaming on ATT's towers doesn't cost extra, and T-Mobile was cheaper than AT&T for my usage.<br>
