Signal : 0%, Frequency : 0 KHz, Basestation : 0

On the modem itself, the signal strength is between 0 - 1 bar.

On the Wireless Broadband Status Monitor, it displays as follow:

Signal : 0%, Frequency : 0 KHz, Basestation : 0

Available Networks: 00000 [ONLY!!!]
I'm in Illiondale and I beilieve that the modem is trying to connect to the tower in Hurleyvale (approx 3.5 KM away)

In fact I can get connected and can use internet.
But the speed is spiky and not constant as noticed in Flashget transger graph.

Any suggestions to improve this situation by any setting??

How do you guys finds the signal strength and towers?
With the information on the status monitor, I don't have any information on actual signal strength and tower number (or name).

for better info, use MySignal in stead of the standard dialer

simple... you need to disconnect first to see any info in the signal strength meter

Thank you for the useful information and the link!

I will give it a shot.
