Hi I for the life of me can't figure out why the voda reception in Dunners is SO BAD (we're talking 2G at dial up speed) apart from CBD outside buildings where you can get 4.5Mbps down 2.8Mbps up.

In many outdoor places I get at best 2g!

I used XXKI4, and now on XXLP6 which is marginally better ... any thoughts?

Are you actually getting a 3G signal? What do speedtests say when you're getting "dial up speed"?
