@Nguku. I understand the switch between 3G/Edge. My issue is that it happens all the time almost everywhere. Initially it would happen in certain "densely" populated areas which is understandable.

But now it is all the time. I have tried this on different devices to the same effect.

Anyone from safari com technical here?

I have been experiencing the same... so there is an issue

Some android phones only let you set the "preferred network". To force your phone to 3g :

1. *#*#4636#*#*
-> Phone information
-> preferred network
-> WCDMA only

if you go outside of 3g coverage you'll be mteja though .

As far as I know the CCTV is on its own dedicated network

Might be a network planning thing.

Not the case at all from my end, the switch between 2G/3G usually depends on the signal strength of the 3G network that your device is receiving. Should the 3G signal strength fall below a given threshold then your device will switch to 2G and then back to 3G when the signal reverts back to normal.

So it might be that you are either in an area with weak 3G coverage, or something is up with your phone's antenna. You can optionally lock your device to the 3G network by choosing WCDMA only under network mode settings  if you are certain that signal strength is not the issue and that you will not be going to an area with no 3G coverage otherwise utakuwa mteja!

Skunks,

Is it only my observation or is the safcom network always reverting to edge quite often.

Are these effects of the CCTV project being allocated data bandwidth?

Its quite frustrating .....
