I've noticed that my wifi is spotty on my new 3gs, sometimes gets full bars and sometimes only the dot when at home whereas my laptop always gets a good connection. I've noticed that 3g seems faster than wifi most of the time when the wifi connection is weak. I did a search online and found news articles and blog entries discussing it so it seems this is kind of common but found no real solution. Annything I can do to make it work good and improve reception? I'm typing this on my phone to test it out and yes right now the reception shows the weakest signal and it's noticeably slow to load pages. Kind of inclined to just not use wifi and stick to 3g which is consistent and impressive but I would like the wifi to work properly. Any tips are appreciated.
Edit: I just renewed the lease on the connection which improved it to full bars and it's down to one bar again now within a minute. Pretty annoying as speed difference is huge. Have my router in the room next door and when in the same room bars show full. Is the wifi chip on the iPhone really that weak that it drops so much just a room down I don't live in a big house just a two bedroom condo. Spotty is the best way I would describe it sometimes it's ok (like now intyping this edit) and gets the full three or at least two bars but sometimes only the one bar and then it's noticeably slow. Thanks in advance.
