dang. I had an N80, european one.

every time I walked into a local Indian Casino here in California, (black oak casino) it would say 3G. it's just some kind of F-up in the network / frequencies they use.

Can you post the cell tower APN when you obtain 3G connection. ?

That should solve the mystery :) IMHO

it looks like i was data roaming so what is the difference with regular 3g which gives us 2g-2.5g and then cingular wireless dataroaming gives us 3g-3.5g so does that mean cingulta roaming is on other band freq other then regular att 850

Yes, because it means that you were using T-Mobile's cell tower and T-Mobile uses different 3G frequencies.

yep, this has been posted before. Rarely an AT&T user will roam on TMo and get 3g, and then post here that AT&T works w/3g speed on the n900. It doesn't.

Re: AT&T 3G Works? (Domestic roaming on T-Mobile 3G)
 
how is it even possible to roam in area that att covers? and wouldnt the ip show up as tmo instead of att? the ip belongs to cingular which is also att. i could be totally wrong but if iwas roaming on tmo tower shoulldnt it show tmo ip instead of att?
