Im in work at the moment but when I return I will post to let you know

I forgot to mention I have noticed that if I had changed or rebooted my router (Ongoing speed issue with my BB and testing different routers and found the 2Wire 2700 to be the best for sync speed) the SS would loose the connection and until I unplugged it for 10 seconds it would not get the connection back.

Many thanks for getting back to me on that - certainly points to a problem at my end.

looks like pure call centre BS. When my Nexus One phone arrived some days after the suresignal it just saw the signal and worked. There was zero 3G signal here to give it a confusing alternative, which may be relevant.

My suresignal is double NATted as it is plugged into a router with its WAN plugged to a modem/router and both do NAT.

Well almost a week later and pleased to report it is stable.

The impression I've got is that a lot of the problems are down to the device not having a very good DHCP client in it.

Amazingly it is not full 3G bars when downstairs, about half signal when going through two floors. When not raining will have to take a walk and see what range is like

I thought the iPhone had a "signal Bars" bug?

Have bumper on, and it would be odd for it to be consistent in full bars in room with femtocell and less otherwise.

Maybe 4.1 on iphone helped

does the phone give you a dBm signal reading ?

mine goes from -51 dBm adjacent to Suresignal to -69 dBm in next room 6m away. 3G is similar frequency to wifi with same issues. Not sure about power output of femtocell though Voda web site says "The power output of the RF fields that femtocells use is less than 0.1 watt, similar to other wireless home network equipment, such as a WiFi DSL router"
