Airave: Getting Great Signal Reception At Home - Page 6

Forgewizard · 02/08/2011, 12:08 AM

wow! What a difference! Installed the Airvana airave tonight. It booted up no problems and ZING! FULL BARS in the house! I have used all three careers and none have evr given more than a shifty 2-3 bars while the phone is in standby. Then when on a call coverage falls to 1 bar or gets dropped. With the airvana I get full bars! With full bars I get to see the real speed of my Pre! Yes a simple Pre, non-overclocked, not a plus just a Pre and it even seems faster than the demo models I recall looking at long ago!

I recall doing side by side Centro to Pre comparisons and not seeing much difference in speed. Often the Centro seemed to outdo the Pre. But now with full bars - it's a whole new ball game! Go Pre Go!

I have a love/hate relationship with my airrave. I love that I get full bars but I HATE that I can't talk at the same time with the person I am talking with. This is because of the internet voiceover ip.

I am having issues on Airave Access Point. Sprint is telling me about an outage.

My Airwave is hit or miss. Depending on where I'm at in my house, the signal will be 5 bars or will drop off of the Airwave all together and once it drops off it won't jump back on unless I end my existing call and redial. I just want a good phone and not have to sit in my driveway to finish a call because it will drop once I enter my house due to the lousy signal.

Will I have to buy an Airrave and pay a monthly fee? I get bad signal strength in my house

Go to Sprint's website, and look up your address on their map. If your in 3G/4G good coverage area, then call them.
