"No Service", "Searching" errors on iPhone only when connecting to AirPort Extreme
The title pretty much sums it up.
I seem to be having a problem and I can't tell exactly what is happening.
I have a Verizon iPhone 4. For the most part I always have 5 bars and it showing Verizon 3G connection. Strong connection and doesn't go up and down. Other cell phones in my house are fine too.
When in my house, I usually have my iPhone connected to wifi through an AirPort Extreme router.
I noticed a problem about a month ago where all of a sudden, my phone would go from having full bars to then showing "Searching"...it would stay in this mode for quite a while draining the battery. Then would go to "No Service" for quite a while too. I normally have to power off the phone and turn back on and it will go back to 5 bars for a while, then eventually will go back to the "searching" and "no service" messages.
I go through a full "reset network settings" and it seems that as long as I don't connect it to my wifi, it seems to be ok.
Do you all know of a reason why my wifi connection, would seem to interfere with Verizon's Network and cause disconnects?
By the way, I just recently got a "new" iphone from Verizon and it's doing the same thing on it so unless I got two faulty iphones I don't think it's a hardware thing.
Thanks all!
