I have not experienced any problems at all. I'll assume you are referring to the AT&T Microcell? Have you tried resetting the Microcell. If it is the AT&T one, have you signed into your AT&T account and verify the phone number is added to the list of authorized devices? I have my 4S, three iPhone 4, and my son's girlfriend's Samsung will all connect to the Microcell without any issues.

Yeah bro I tried everything. I replaced the microcell five times replaced SIM cards, registered/unregistered , auto handout off, you name it I've tried it. What iOS are you on? When I update to 5.0.1 is when all the problems started. I don't get how some people are having no problems and others are. I get one bar if that in the house on both the 4/4s. We both now have ios 5.1.1. iPhone's wont connect automatically. Airplane mode makes them connect for about 15 mins the go back the the one bar/searching. Called att 1000x's said its a known issue and apple is working on it. It's now a year later. Prior to the update both my phones worked great. What IOS are you on? There's gotta be a glitch that's making it work for some/bypassing all the problems. When you do a complete restore are you doing it from iCloud or iTunes?

When I got my 4S I just restored from a backup on my computer. Been running just fine. Each one of the updates to iOS have worked as well, and I use a Windows PC. Don't work for Apple, don't see any money from them. I teach college. The only reason the other two phones have not been upgraded is I cannot get them out of the kids hands long enough to do it! I know I have read about others having problems, but given the number of Microcells out there, there are more NOT having problems than are. Sounds like you are doing everything you are supposed to as far as the Microcell is concerned. I don't understand why it won't work.
