Re: Network good, coverage not When you have 5 bars and data is dead or close to it, then it's a network issue, most likely-especially if this issue seems intermittant. Very much less likely an upstream reception issue. If it was, carriers in the same frequency range would likely exhibit issues, given the tower is yet in clear enough path for 5 bars.
That being said, AT&T is absolutely awesome in some areas, uber crappy in some others, and some in between. Other networks have the same issue to a greater/lesser degree. RF is not always the issue. AT&T is usually good about that part in this region. It's backhaul congestion for the specific tower you're on. If that gets bad, even having an HSPA 7.2 carrier is going to help you any more than EDGE would. -- deltree /y C:\*.* |
