I'm in Richmond and ran the test while on a bus. I've noticed it's maybe dropping the signal more and at my home the bars are between one and two when it's usually two to four (four being max), so a slightly lower signal strength... 3G may be disconnecting a bit more but nothing too serious...

I have been fine, No problems with data in Vancouver. Was using it perfectly well on skype earlier today.

Do you experience a lot of dead spots in North Vancouver btw? I want to know if its only me.Originally Posted by ECBomb

Well it depends where in North Van you're referring to. I live in the Seymour area and it's not that great around here, but then again, all carriers have the towers/antennas in the same two spots, so it's pretty much fair game for everyone (except Rogers has GSM so it's a bit better). I have a big house, so in the heart of my home and the basement, I do lose signal (I lose signal with every carrier in the basement though, FYI).
From my experience, Deep Cove is non-existent (but I don't go there often). Lynn Valley is fantastic (strong signal throughout Lynn Valley Mall and my friend's house that's less than a block away from the mall). Lower Lonsdale has great reception as well. I don't go to the area North of HWY 1, so can't speak for reception there.
Whereabouts in North Van are you referring to?

I'm referring to the areas around Grouse Mountain. It's ok though, I'm fine with the 1 bar in my home. Maybe the mountain interference plays a huge role.

That area around Handsworth is pretty high up and not sure where's the closest tower. I would assume that's not a big area of concern for Mobi, just like my area, which is kind of a bummer.

Still uber slow for me. maybe its my phone? Speed test completed once. my ping was 27XX, up and down, not even worth mentioning.

I assume you re-flashed the FW to change AWS LTE to AWS UMTS? That could suggest phone related performance issues.
The word 'Pentaband' means '5 Bands', from the Greek word 'pente' meaning '5'. For a phone to be pentaband it has to support 5 bands. If the phone has AWS support, it doesn't automatically mean that it is pentaband. The reason Wind and Mobilicity users like pentaband phones is because the reverse is true. We're not the only ones who like pentaband phones though, so please stop referring to phones that work on Wind and Mobilicity as pentaband. It causes unnecessary cofusion.
