It also depends where you are in relations to the cell tower as well to have that signal level, you seem pretty far away to have that number. If that's your house -91 will give you voice most likely but data will be slow, if it exists at all on this phone...
I only have 3 bars at this moment in my office, my signal strength fluctuates from -106 dBm to -91 dBm....

The lower the "absolute" number the better? When you stated the lower the number, I looked at the (-) and thought -106 is lower than -91. lol!
