I've noticed that there is a massive speed difference between 3G and 3.5G which I'd like all the time. The phone goes into 3.5 when I'm using it directly, but won't if I'm tethering.

Has anyone had any experience with this? Is there a way to force the N900 to 3.5G?

Also, does anyone use Joikuspot? It sounds interesting, but don't want to shell out for it until I know its alright.

cheers
I use Joikuspot and it works well. I have never see it drop to 3G where there was a good 3.5G

You can get a free trail version which is limited to only http which you try to confirm your phone sticks on your 3.5G signal, then 9 euro for the premium version is worth it.
