PPCGeeks - Reception problem

OK... so I recently moved to a new apartment. What trips me out is I can stand right outside my door and have 4 bars... but inside I get NOTHING!!!!! And that really sucks because I may just be sitting here and my phone doesnt ring but out of nowhere the notification pops up and I have like 4 voicemails.](*,) What really annoys me is that I can send and receive texts with no problem... hell i'm even tethered through the phone right now and I still get pretty decent speeds.

What I REALLY dont understand is why when the phone is downloading/uploading data there are 2-3 bars on the phone... but when there is no data connection im right back down to zero bars and no reception. Am I pretty much just screwed or what? Sucks to have a phone I cant even send or receive calls on inside my apartment without literally hanging out of the patio door. It's getting too cold for that lol:angry7:
