does jailbreaking cause network connection problems?

[Ilikeapples87]

I kinda posted this kind of issue in the main iphone forum, and just wanted everyones knowledge. today i got my 3gs replacement from apple, which is a good thing by the way, my previous 3gs had problems with receiving a signal and unstable reception. the reception would go haywire when im outside and i would get "no service" inside. I was wondering if its because I jailbroke it and unlock it or it was just another hardware issue with my particular iphone

I've noticed absolutely no difference in signal strength or ability to connect or anything since I jailbroke.
