Well as stated in the other thread, we originally thought ours was static problems. But after trying many many possible solutions, the radio data connection problem jsut sort of faded away after a while.

I will have to try connecting last years modems and see what happens. (Even though it wouldn't be legal to use this year, it would still help find the solution to the problem)
