4G in Skegness/ingoldmells. Great work O2.

[L_W_Ward]

Soooooo. I'm currently in Skegness/ingoldmells with the dog and matesand I was so happy to get 4G signals. Everyone else has E signal. Wahahahahaha. Sadly this means my 20GB of data is being used up via tethering.

Where else have people got signal and been impressed?

This was last night in Crewe Cheshire CW1 in the middle of town.

and just going out side town about 2 miles away its 4G and goods speeds this morning so looking good O2.

Good news indeed. It's certainly rolling out in Lancashire and Cheshire

Sheffield got improvement in last couple of months, Rotherham and outer edges are starting to improve now, Doncaster average and Lincoln patchy. Gainsborough has it now but patchy, some parts of outer chesterfield like Stavely has 4g. But not from a local mast, but it's improved from gprs. Bridlington has patchy 4G and centre of Hull too which is fast compared to there 3G. Got 4G at Flamborough too, although it came and went. Was picking a mast from Bridlington. I'll report more when in car and on motorbike. But 4G is def becoming more and more.

Bring it on I say. Had 63Mbs download and 26mbs upload in Rotherham on one of there brand new masts. I did see it creep to 67mbps before settling at 63mbs

63 wow. I thought they were capping at 50..?

[darrengf]

If they are, they aren't with me lol.

I've had 63mbs, 59.5mbs, 61mbs, and 57mbs too. All different masts. But all in Rotherham.
Sheffield averages 8mbs to 35mbs on a good day.
I get 3G where I live which is poor at 3mbps, but if I walk 100yards I get 1 bar 4G and get 9mbs. It's near me but I need my local mast upgrading to 4G. But no sign yet.😒

Engineers were working on a mast on outer Chesterfield on Friday, upgraded it to 4G 😃.

[MI5]

Here's hoping it's improving all round then

[darrengf]

Yes hope so, I see 4G in more areas now than anything. Traveling in car on Friday to Brid, my friend was waving phone about in back. I said what on earth are you doing, she said looking for 4G. I started laughing.

I said no chance out here, she shouting. Nooooooo I need 4G. How can I live now with out it lol

I said unless they strap a mast to a cow there is no 4g here yet. We were just outside Hull.

That could just be a great idea 

[darrengf]

I can you something though.

My work phone is on EE and there 4G is very good indeed, but I've noticed that 4G from O2 in buildings where EE isn't.

This is because O2 run it on 800mhz and EE 1800mhz

[darrengf]

@MI5 if it has been some one idea already then I want it lol

Cow with a portable 4G Mast. Battery underneath and when they come in for milking you can charge battery at same time lol.

Cows roam too, so coverage would be much better, just remember to remove the masts when the release the Bull lol
