AT&T Microcell (aka femtocell)

<< < (2/2)

No dice.  Got a new SIM in one of the phones yesterday and it's acting the same.  Moreover, I had one phone that was initially holding onto the Microcell pretty consistently, but now it keeps associating with the regular tower and I have to pull the battery to get it to reassociate with the Microcell.  What's worse is it's a Blackberry 9700 that takes literally almost 10 minutes to cold reboot.  Dumb.  I think I'll be sending back the Microcell.

thats a shame mines been awesome, but admittedly only have tested it with an iphone. i'm guessing the technical support is lacking on them as it is over here. if you feel like looking and you haven't as yet, the vodafone forums seem to be the place for tech advice on them over here, maybe see if there are similar things in your carriers web content. the vodafone femtocell is open source too, dunno if there's something worth googling there

Gray_Area:
GSM doesn't seem to be that mature over here. I'm playing with Sprint (CDMA) and T-Mobile (GSM) phones right now. GSM seems to be a little faster surfing, but I've experienced lack of net connection from within my home, three times in the week I've had it, with no change when I went outside. No such issues with Sprint.

On a side note, playing with these smart phones, both of which run Android 2.2, I can't see using a Black Berry.
