Help daily reboot to fix lost data connection

It seems that almost every morning when I go from my home wifi connection to 3G, I end up losing all data connections which requires a reboot to fix.

I have tried turning wifi on-off, all different modes of wireless modes, and this morning I tried turning on airplane mode, which once turned on, the phone would not allow me to turn airplane mode back off, which then left me no other alternative than to REBOOT!!!

This is almost a daily occurrence and part of my morning commute ritual.

On a side note, phone shows 100% battery life until the reboot, which then it will show as low as 80% and only been unplugged for 30 minutes.

Anybody else having similar issues?
 
I have that problem sporadically, mainly because my house is in a "You are going to be lucky and get 1 bar" location. I just assumed that doing the changing to and from that with my wireless confuses and kills the data. For me, going to Airplane mode and back fixes the issue.
 
I am in a 0-1bar location, and lost WiFi 2-3 times/day. Resetting DSL/Wireless router usually works. My 3G coverage is so poor I may leave it in Airplane mode if that would prevent the phone from being conflicted between 3G and WiFi coverage.
 
Yes at home I have very little 3G, but I never lose signal. On my way to work, within a few miles I get into a full bar 3G area, but it does not say 3G on my phone, just bars. I get no data connection until I reboot the phone.

I have been rebooting to fix this problem. Airplane mode is much better. Thanks!
