Shared Rural upgrade

Will Langholm be getting a well earned upgrade 

the net work is currently very poor and underpowered see screenshot - translates to 1 bar strength and 18mb download and 2mb upload - very poor service

Hi @Ianclimb8 

Have you checked EE coverage and network status checker?

Can you make and receive calls. Do you have access to EE WiFi calling service.

Thanks

I have checked frequently  open to complaints and had engineers visit - I have even checked mast maps used high gain outdoor aerial  ended up on broadband because it better than  rubbish 4G to date.

id like a date when we will improve service here fiber to the house should be possible - why is it not here ?

5G would be great but a stronger signal would be nice too ? 

quite frustrating to know that fiber is at the green box in the town square …

Signal strength has no direct correlation to data speeds.

Out of curiosity, what do you want to use your phone for, that 18Mb/s is insufficient?

Both sites serving Langholm are single-carrier B3-1800Mhz alongside B20-800Mhz. So a total of 25Mhz bandwidth that would drop to 5Mhz in poor radio conditions.
