Have you downloaded iOS4? If so, the signal showing on your phone should be more accurate.If I've helped you please show your appreciation by using the "Thanks" button

Is your daughter O2 PAYG as well as you?0

Is your daughters network the same as yours or different? It might be a bad signal area for O2, I know at my sisters home my O2 signal gets cut off sometimes but my sisters vodaphone signal is quite strong there.0

Ironically, the whole issue with the signal strength indicators being inaccurate actually started with the 2g. Reception was so poor - allegedly - that Apple "tweaked" the calculation on the 2g to make it look better than it actually was. That part of the OS stayed the same through the release of the 3g and 3gs as Apple (according to some blogs) "forgot" to correct the calculation and iPhones continued to show better reception than they were actually getting. This was finally corrected with the release of either iOS4 or 4.0.1 (I forget which).If I've helped you please show your appreciation by using the "Thanks" button
