Re: Evo Airave/Handcent/Data connection issue

I had the original Airave and had no issues with multiple phones including my Evo. I got Sprint to send me the Airvana and now I have texting issues with the Evo all the time. I use the stock app and I get message not sent errors when it really has sent so people get the same text from me 3-7 times (depends on how long it takes me to go unplug the Airvana.) I have talked to Airave support numerous times and have been told by them and from 2 supervisors that there are known issues with the new model. One of them being the SMS issue I am having. Last I heard they haven't figured it out and it makes no sense when phone calls work fine and both phone and text use 1x. It was a lot worse when I first got the Airvana and I have been having less issues lately. One of the first days I had it I had to unplug it over 30 times in one day to be able to text. The last 2 weeks have not been as bad, so maybe they did an update. Though last night I had to unplug it 6 different times to get it to stop giving me SMS errors.

The other problem they told me they are having, which I had noticed too, is that I can not set the Airvana to private on the website and restrict it to certain numbers. Every time I do, it says it saved and then if you check again it's right back to public.

Kind of wish I had kept the original Airave instead as I never had any issues with it.
