Some weird stuff is happening this morning. Was supposed to have maintenance on the 30th, nothing happened as usual. Just a few minutes ago I was browsing on 4g and everything stopped and I went to no service. After a few minutes I reconnected to 3g but with no data connection.
I'm able to get coverage from 4 different masts at my location, all 4g, yet it's not working. Airplane mode doesn't help, but if I reboot my phone I do get a 4g connection as normal for about a minute. It's usually super congested with highs of 6-7mb and is often around 1mbps. I got a nice 20mbps with -110dBm, I assume because its kicked most people off it. It actually kicked me off to no service during the upload portion of my speedtest. I did check and it's still broadcasting 10mhz. Same thing goes for the other sites in my area. There's maintenance planned on the 6th, but not today. |

It might be the EVR ROM, but my S6 doesn/t have the /carrier/ folder so I can't try this

Downdetector shows outages nationwide for Three.
My data and 4G are back now too. |

Spotted a 15MHz cell in Manchester, no difference in speeds for me still less than 2mbps but I'm right on the cell edge.

Anyone tried switching from the three.co.uk APN to the 3internet one? Fixed things for me in the 2013 outage.

No data in my part of West London, lost it from Clapaham onwards as well. There's a message on the coverage chart that there seems to be a problem. #makeitright

I can get results like that posted, where almost everything is 95-100 (sometimes it goes over, but I put that down to Speedtest not being 100% accurate) and I know 180 has been achieved on uncapped equipment.

Well I've managed to locate a used LG G4 on Three, so hopefully when I get it, I can finally test out the 800MHz network properly. I wouldn't mind using the G4 day-to-day.

Got 80Mbps on a mast today on 3. (https://imgur.com/4VJoH9f), I thought that was pretty good for 15MHz to be honest.

![]() I wonder if the 100mbps barrier will be broken on Three anytime soon. |

Indeed very nice speeds. If I'm not mistaken as of now you've just posted the fastest ever Three speedtest?

EE seems to be taking up 4G+ as being nearer 90, with double speed at 60 and single speed at 30.
Maybe there's a plan to slowly increase speeds, to keep customers seeing improvements rather than everything all at once. When Cat 9 comes, maybe that will be when EE goes to 120. I'm seeing a pattern emerging here! |

How to test if the extra 15Mhz has been added?
I am getting upload speeds over 4mb on H+ which is new for me. |

The S6 is great for testing signal c because I've found it updates ito reading much, much faster than other phones.
