Unhappy [Q] Question about signal and baseband

Hi all
I am in Germany Dresden.
I‘ve flash XXKL1 for two weeks, wifi works perfect but when I used 3G the signal sometimes drops and speed seems slow.
I find the signal strength in the setting, it is -101dBm 6asu. Does it means the signal isn't so good?

sorry for my bad English.

-120 is the lowest signal the phone will display. It can still stay connected at values less than that, but it won't show you the reading. Voice will work great, but data will be intermittent and the data connection will drop often.

-60 or less is pretty much the strongest signal you're going to see in real life.

-100 is not great, but should still be useable. I'd expect data speed to be about 75% of what you'd get at full strength. The phone may keep switching from tower to tower every few minutes if you have several nearby.

Former AT&T employee. They suck. You have no idea how much they suck. In fact, I should probably change my s/n, since I haven't even used them in 3 years.
