Snobomon 0 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I know that a couple of years ago, Softbank was unreliable to non-existent on Niseko mountains. Has that changed? And if still unreliable, wich provider is better up there? AU or DoCoMo? Link to post Share on other sites
Go Native 70 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Softbank reception is still crap. AU is good. Link to post Share on other sites
quattro 1 Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I have had no problems with DoCoMo at Niseko Link to post Share on other sites
klingon 10 Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Docomo seems best pretty much everywhere. (correct?) Makes you wonder why people stick with others unless it's price though I thought that was pretty much the same.. Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 It used to be price and models, well mainly the iPhone. For reception. DoCoMo -> AU -> Softbank -> Willcom Link to post Share on other sites
cram400 0 Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Generally speaking the SB reception is crap. I was just there in early Feb and at the top of the mountain reception was non-existent. At middle part of the mountain (around the King Bell and Ace Hill) it's still non-existent. At the base of the mountain the reception is good in the Hirafu, Niseko Village and Annupuri areas. Hanazono reception is sketchy at best. Reception cuts in and out and is very unstable. Link to post Share on other sites
