Default [Q] MicroCell and Galaxy Note

I am considering a switch from the ATT Samsung Infuse4g to the ATT Samsung Galaxy Note next week. I use an ATT Microcell at home as we dont have any signal to speak of without it. I have had one hell of an issue with my Infuse and its ability to communicate properly with the Microcell. The issue I am having is with sending and receiving both SMS and MMS messages, about 65% of them fail.
My question to current owners of the Note is..... Are any of you having this sort of issue or any other issues with your Note while being used in conjunction with the MicroCell????


Thanks in advance for any help!

I have a M-Cell at home and at the office and they work good. As good as the M-Cell really works. They aren't great but better than no signal.

Don't complain unless you are willing to offer a solution and participate in the solution. If not then SHUTUP!!!

Our microcell was never consistent.. Doesn't matter which phone we are using the connection shows microcell like only 50% of the time. I'm not sure if the addon antenna can help holding the connection.

I have very consistant signal ..100% for 300 feet of the base. Even with that I have the text issues but only with the Infuse. When using any other phone I have no issues.
I am simply concerned that since both the Infuse and the Note are made by Samsung and likely use the same radio technology, that I will experience the same texting issues.

My Microcell is working well with my IV and ATT Note.

No issues on mine. First day it sucked, but now it is automatic like it should be.

I had the first day blues with all the phones I have used with it too. But all of them worked great but my Infuse.
Looking forward to my Note March 4th can't get here fast enough!
