EE used to get around 7Mbps at kings cross but its always atleast 20 nowadays so slowly but surely it's improving.

I'm happy switching back to my t mobile 3G for now and in 18 months or so I will go back to 4G. By then I expect it'll be much better.

That's a fair comment. I guess ill have to wait for 3. Im not going to shell out for hardware in the meantime.

I guess the next time I think VM is too high at £30 a month I should consider today the lesson that actually it's dirt cheap!

Please don't say this was in place of your home broadband?

It was going to be sort of.. But ill stick with what I have until I either get a new phone for 3 or EE picks up - which I have been told should happen soon as now they have competition.

I think the issue you are seeing is that currently EE are just trying to get LTE everywhere. This means they are upgrading the biggest masts - usually the 40m high ones. These cover literally miles in every direction, so they can get LTE coverage to an entire area with little upgrading.

As time goes on EE will upgrade the smaller sites and this will ease capacity. Eventually the LTE will be much better. I honestly think though nothing beats a home broadband for internet at home.

£30 for 30Mbps seems a lot though - new customers get it cheaper! I've got BT here and I get infinity for £15.99 now (had it a few years).

Yes the 120 is £30 (£35 after promo) I believe mine is now £22.50 which to be honest is fair. If I had to pay for my sky it would be that for 8.

That's brilliant! I've got 80Mbps via sky for £30 and BT is dirt cheap now I've been with them a bit (work pays that though). I really loathe the virginmedia equipment though especially the superhub. I would rather have 8Mbps than virginmedia 100Mbps with that heap of junk...

Well to it's credit. the SuperHub 2 is actually decent. It's got good dual channel wireless and it's not dropped since I had it.

Well annoyingly it does seem to be where I live. 1/2 a mile down the road I'm getting 26mbps+

So it'll do for when I'm out and about like I am now. So all is not lost.
