Nokia 6230 question (manual operator selection)

Nokia 6230 question (manual operator selection)

When I go: Menu > Settings > Phone Settings > Operator Selection > Manual I get a list of networks.  I'm being trying to establish the relative strength of these networks and was wondering if the order has any significance.  I'm pretty sure that the first operator in the list is likely to be the strongest, and was wondering if I can deduce if the others are in order of signal strength.

Can anyone confirm this?

Re: Nokia 6230 question (manual operator selection)

not necessarily, it provides you with the list of operators but you can't use all of them, you can only use the provider that you have the sim card for. click on a option from non provider, you should not be able to have any service as your options are dependent on your sim card/opearator/mobile network provider.

Re: Nokia 6230 question (manual operator selection)

Many thanks for your reply.  I'm trying to ascertain which of the operators will give me the most reliable reception as I'm about to change.  I'm very aware that only my current operator will actually accept a true connection.

 

If the list is not necessarily in the order of field strength, what does the order signify?
