Re: [apple-iphone] networks?
After talking with my carrier provider, here is some thing I found out.
The bar of the phone represent the signal strength for the tower. This is the 'telephone' network. It has not relevance to the 3G network, other then it will most likely be the same tower giving you the 3G network (Same tower different antenna).
If you turn off the 3G, you get Edge. Now that does run on the same signal at the telephone.
Edge being slower, does have better reliability.
Sometimes I have 5 bars, and no 3G....
receiving text message is on the telephone side of the equation.

Subject: [apple-iphone] networks?
I'm not sure if this is common or not but sometimes ill have 3g and full bars but it will say unable to send or connect to mail and i will also be unable to send or receive texts but when I turn off 3g and i get the edge my bars will disappear and then I can get mail and I will be able to send and receive text messages. To me this is misleading but I wonder if this is normal?
If I have full bars and 3g why am I unable to get anything?
This is only happening in certain spots?
Thanks
Allan
