Do the cell towers reboot?

I have just hooked up my system to replace dial-up and have been getting a solid rev A signal (-79 to -83). NO issues for two full days of testing and then the internet dropped.

RSSI went to -100, then no signal at all. I checked my modem, wiring, ap and antenna all seemed to be fine. Then about five minutes later I was receiving 5 bars of signal @ -79 and everything was fine again.

Is this something that I should expect out of the towers occassionally or is there possibly something wrong with my setup?

Hiccups like you experienced do happen occasionally. Where are you (Michigan)? There's been a lot of network testing going on recently as Alltel tests Rev A. The testing really makes things erratic!

I am in the mountains of San Diego.

Unfortunately, this post was supposed to be in the Sprint forum, but I guess the same basic issues apply. Thanks
