Driod X almost never connects to network extender after upgrade

recently upgraded droid x to 2.3.3/4.5.605 and rarely will connect to my network extender now. sometimes if I place the phone beside the extender for a half hour or so it will switch over to it. Have tried power cycling everthing to no avail. Anyone else have this issue?

Have you tried reprogramming the device on the extender by *228 option #1, do this while you are connected to extender... This worked for me in the past..

thx wildman! I gave it a shot - got a 'your phone has been successfully programmed" msg - initially had 3G + 4 bars for a couple mins, then dropped to 1X 0 bars. Now back to 3G + 4 bars...oops, down to 0 bars. Now back up to 3G 4 bars. Now 0 bars/no signal. I'm sitting 6 feet from the extender with the phone on my desk watching it go through it's gyrations - I don't get it.

oh, I should note I have two droid X's - both have the exact same issue, but do not cycle (3G - 1X - no sig - 3G) in sync.

If both devices are doing this then it sounds like you may have a issue with the extender, does the phones only have issues when on the extender, does it work well when using just network..
