After i updated i have seen the E , no service, searching... and 3g. I have to turn the ipad off then I'll get a stable 3g connection for a little while but it will eventually disconnect. If i get a new ipad will it effect my unlimited data plan?
I still have the unlimited plan... it has to do with your sim card not your ipad.

Cool. I thought they might just take the old ipad and give you a new one with a new sim, then tell you to register for 3g again.

My 'Pad went back to 3G.
Not sure why, I did let it run all the way down to auto shut off then recharged back to full. Turned it on and I have full 3G connection and speeds. I wonder if Awful Telephone and Telegraph "fixed" something.....

I got my iPad replaced. The replacement came with 3.2. Haven't had one disconnect yet.

Try this... If you're jailbroken and using SBS Settings, swipe finger from left to right across where signal bars and ATT carrier logo are. A screen will pop-up for the SBS options like re-spring. There's also a 3G icon... Make sure yours isn't disabled (red) like mine was. Tapping to make it green worked like a charm. 3Gcame back to life in an instant. Hope that helps

That was my bad... Tried everything I saw to get 3G back (airplane, reboot, shutdown, etc). Then saw your note and wham!. I must have fat fingered the close button and turned off 3G at the same time.

I've driven cross-county with iPad 1 and 2. When they switched to Edge, they automatically kicked back to 3G when I got closer to a tower. That was true the whole way across the county. I never had to do anything to kick them back to 3G. Both of mine are AT&T.
