New Nexus One on AT&T ok EDGE poor 3G
I have been pretty frustrated with the very intermittent 3G service I've been experiencing on the AT&T Nexus One I received yesterday. The status bar at top always says 3G...I have never seen EDGE. Even so, I am more often than not unable to connect. It seems when connectivity is there, speed is adequate, but despite showing 3G up top, the the upload/download bars showing activity, I am frequently not even able to load a web page or refresh Facebook.
Just for fun, I selected the option 'Use only 2G networks' and what do you know? Consistent speeds and no loss of connectivity. While I'm not happy to be getting only EDGE speed, the alternative is lousy 3G service. Any ideas why EDGE would work well and 3G would perform so poorly? Could the AT&T phone be plagued by issues similar to those that the T Mobile device experienced (or experiences)? |

Highlands Ranch, CO. Using SIM that was in my iPhone. Hadn't experienced any 3G issues with iPhone which is why this is concerning me.

Sorry to hear that others are having problems. I live in the Maryland Baltimore area. I Switched from an iPhone 3GS and my N1 is currently getting better reception than my iPhone was. I have not noticed it drop or switch from 3G to Edge yet and I live in a crappy 3G area.
Hope you guys eventually have your problem resolved. |

Orlando here with a AT&T specific 3g model just released and everything seems fine so far. It is a slight learning curve moving from the iphone 3gs as the touch screens are slightly different.
