Wow! O2 has really upgraded their 4G service! It was half that speed the last time I tested. Pretty impressive.

WOW!

I'm jealous of those speeds! Mine are usually only about 10% of that - the UK has some fast Internet! I bet that's nice if you have to get a lot of information quickly or something (watching YouTube, playing games, and time-sensitive stuff).

The sad thing is that our carrier advertises astronomical speeds in the 50 Mbps range, even though nobody even comes close to that. They make it sound so much better than it is.

My home internet and my 4G. 4G is amazing in Australia, but the landline internet is abysmal. Go figure.

For reference, I'm on one bar of coverage like 30km from the city, on the outer suburban edge.

It really doesn't.



There was a report recently saying that our 4G coverage is abysmal. You don't always get 4G even in city centres.

My coverage is one of the fastest in the UK because we are a small region and it is easy to cover us with the data.

Yeah, it's good but unfortunately my network sucks when it comes to the amount of data offered. At the moment i'm only getting 3GB of data which I can only use for Spotify and emails and some web searching.

I would want a lot more data than that but i've got no choice because that's all they offer.

I've never had a problem with data caps - mine's unlimited IIRC.

The plan I've had the past few years allows 1 GB of LTE data and then it goes to 128 Kbps. I'll have to upgrade to unlimited high speed because it's now the only way I can access the internet, and that's way too slow.

Hey cold lovers, how do you like this one? Especially spring should be pleasing.



The people then didn't like it too much. A lot of people became fertiliser for the next summer.
