Ive had very poor speeds between 6 and 10pm for the last month with a data only sim.
Usually below .5mbps, even though upload speeds say 12-20mbps, yet in the night I get 12-14 mbps down and 20mbps up.
I'm using a TP-link router with the data card, and have done for a few years. I swopped out the Vodafone SIM for an EE one and get 20+ mbps any time of day, so its not the router
I also have a mobile wifi box which doesn't suffer the same speed issues.
Why are my speeds so poor now ? , is it because Vodafone have crammed the network with customers in my area without updating the network to cover it ?
I have 3 phones, an unlimited data only sim card ( £36+ a month) and a mobile wifi box.
Total Bill of £95 a month
Id expect the £36 a month card to give decent speeds rather than .5mbps
I'd be better off going to EE @ £32 a month and get 5G unlimited at 80 mbps, but if I do that I'll have to move my 3 phones over and get shot of the mobile wifi box as well.
Before anyone says go onto 5G , I'm 3 miles form Birmingham city centre and Vodafone doesn't cover my area for 5G.
