Help Extended Area Data after ICS update

Sorry if this has been brought up already but I haven't been able to find an answer for this. Since the ICS update it seems that the only time I can get 3g\4g is when I'm in my local service area. Whenever I'm in an extened network area I basically get nothing. I've messed around with the new settings and currently the preferred network type is set to global and the global data roaming is enabled. I tried toggling to the other settings allowed under those two but still no connection. I have also done a factory data reset as well (same result before and after). Anybody know how to fix this?

After all that I decided to switch my preferred network to the lte/whatever option and while going outside for a walk (still no mobile network) rebooted and voila now I have data. WTF. Anywho I hope no one takes too much time reading this.
 
Have you tried downloading Motorola's app for restoring connectivity? If not, download and run it. If that doesn't work you might need to try swapping SIM cards. But definitely run the app first. Seems to help out.
