I use my blackberry pearl cell phone at the house as a wireless modem so I don’t always have to drive over to the office…which has had extremely slow connectivity as of late. My service provider is T-Mobil which basically borrows air time from whoever has service in the area…the problem with using my cell phone at the house is this. It constantly switches between SunCom (Puerto Rican Provider) which gives me 1 bar and super slow internet and Cingular which gives me 5 bars and super fast Internet. The weird thing about it is that it switches carriers by itself. I am not moving around. It sits on the desk right next to me and about every 15 minutes it goes from Cingular to Suncom…which usually means I’ll get a “Timed Out” error and loose whatever work I was trying to upload.

All this should pass soon when we get our DSL installed then the cell phone will just be back up.
