Yeah, I hate it. I feel so much better knowing my ipad2 has 3g on it. When I lose the net, and I can't jump on neighbors open wifi spot for that hour, I tend to find myself doing offline stuff, or using the 3g on the ipad2.
It sucks losing a skype call, or inability to check for email, etc.
Recently my docsis3 modem has an issue that if the file is over say 200mbyte, it starts the download but after 90 or 120 mbyte it just "halts", speed drops 100% (but everything else works just fine) I stay on skype, i can browse sites, usenet downloads go with 15mbyte/sec no problem. But getting a podcast, something from itunes, or an ftp transfer .. yikes, so annoying. What good is 120mbit when it downloads and stops after 5 seconds. hehe. Very odd, and spend a week trying to figure out why. But I can't come up with a conclusion/assumption that it's the modem itself.
Hopefully I can get it replaced soon. Pressing 'resume' 5 times just to get an .sql dump 100% completed is annoying.
