I have a contract, Huawei K3715 modem and keep getting disconnected every half hour. It reports connection not possible, then searches for network indefinitely. But if I reboot, the network is found immediately. I'm in nothern JB, Cedar Lakes.
 
WTF was up with VC this weekend?

Slow throughput since Saturday, online gaming was horrible with countless lost connections. Right now struggling with 5kb/s download. Connected HSPA with 4 bars.

I also had a problem today with my Blackberry (Sunday at around 14:00, Hatfield, Pta). Did not have GPRS or EDGE service (was on GSM). Tested it on another BB - same thing.
 
I'm in Cape Town and I had random bouts of missing signal entire weekend and my GPRS/3G took forever to connect and would just disappear now and again.
 
I have the same thing in Pretoria East, and have had it for about 2 weeks now. Frequent disconnects, low or no data throughput. I probably had to connect about 10 times this morning before it started working. Once connected, at random times data throughput fails and the reconnect process has to start again.

I also find that my E220 modem looses connection often, and the VC Lite dashboard application simply dies and restarts often, even with the latest firmware loaded as instructed by Vodacom. I know in Northern KZN this is also a issue and have reported this to Vodacom, without any solution provided now for 2 months. In KZN I had the same issue using two different PC's and two different E220 modems.

Any ideas or suggestions VC?
 
Was crazy in Cape Town this weekend ... Happy hour for Timeouts and Disconnects .... CRAZY!!!!!!
