3g goes away and 1x pops up?

I was just curious this usually only does this at my house. But sometimes I look and and see the 3g gone and it has the symbol that says 1x in the spot of the 3g on the main screen?
 
You have a weak 3g signal so it will switch to 1x, this happens to me in the house ever since I got my Droid. Funny though it doesn't happen to my mifi at all, even when I sit it right next to my Droid it will show 3g which is by the way evdo and the Droid will show 1x when trying to surf. The minute I try to go on the web it shows 1x, but today in the house its giving me 3g when surfing.

It happens to me when I sit in my easy chair, but it happens far less with my Droid then it did with my Blackberry Storm.
 
For me it varies from room to room. I see an app in Androlib and scan the QR code. When I do that, I'd better leave the room (or better still, the house) for it to find and download the app. I have a network extender, but that's only for calls.
