It might be some other device being turned on or off at that time of day 
and it's changing the RF environment enough that you need to get on a 
different channel.  That device may not even be in the 3G frequency band 
to affect your situation.  Even stranger, it could be a multi-path 
reflection from a door nearby - think about warehouse loading docks.

You need a friend with a spectrum analyser to find out for sure what's 
happening.
