So I've been experiencing a weird problem with my iPhone 4 lately.

I've been having some trouble making/receiving calls and sending/receiving texts with my iPhone even though I have medium to full bars of signal. It says it's connected to 3G network as well but I don't get any data on it either (i.e. internet). Sometimes, I get "Unable to activate cell data network" error when I try sending a text.

It's been working fine for a month and a half in Calgary but now that I'm back at school in Ontario, it's having some problems.

One thing to note, it's only having problems when I'm on campus. When I'm at my house, it seems to work flawlessly without any errors.

Do you guys think there could be something wrong with the iPhone itself? I'm starting to think it's more of Bell's cell tower problem, maybe too much traffic since it's on a university campus but looking at the cell tower map, it seems like the same tower is being used when I'm at my house as well.
