Hi All,
I have a Pixel 2 updated with the latest OS and security updates. I regularly travel for business and a good chunk of the time once I land, I find I cannot easily reestablish connection to the mobile network (in my case T-Mobile US) after I land and turn off airplane mode. It usually takes several attempts at scanning networks, attempting to automatically connect, switching to manual connection, rebooting the phone, etc. until finally I can get a connection. Choosing to automatically connect often shows "connected to carrier" but I'm not connected until I reboot or go through a process that can sometimes take 5-10 minutes. In fact, automatically selecting a carrier is almost useless, even when roaming overseas. I've reset my phone, updated versions, etc. and the problem continues whenever I try to reestablish connection when changing areas. Any idea what might be causing it? It seems to happen more frequently in some areas rather than others, as if a switch of bands is an issue.
Not a showstopper issue but as an often as I travel, it becomes a big annoyance. Could this be a potential hardware issue?
Thanks,
Dave
