I thought moderate on xbox one was like type 3 on playstation 4 or in other words strict Nat, until i test some online games with the xbox one and get in with my mates i wont know.

But its nice having a single router as opposed to the mess and wires when using the previous 2,was not a laugh at the time and once again i thank Frog for his patience, the first hour we had no internet whatsoever and i eventually figured out in the small stupid Sim slot that the sim was actually in the wrong way around.

Had to use a micro sim adapter for this nano sim from EE and the correct way in was upside down which meant as i tried to put this in it kept falling out of the adapter....

Actually Moderate is not too good....

Perhaps it is. Never owned an xbox. Just assumed it was the same across the board. Going by the link, you may have some problems, but they'll be minimal. I've never had a problem with type 2 or moderate nat in games. Well, games that tell you that is. I might occasionally run into a party chat issue where it states nat being the issue, but disconnecting and reconnecting to party chat always solves the issue.

I bet it is. My setup is horrendous. I just sent back my expensive 4g router as the Three's B311 gets the same speed. Might re order it though to take 1 router from the equation to clean it up a bit, as the overall performance of the B311 is poor. And the technical issues i've been having with connecting 3 routers to one another.

Though, i'm hoping for an unlimited 4g ee tariff soon. I get better latency with EE. Three's has been alright but hiccups every now and then. Overall, can't beat the price of Threes unlimited tariffs. Will be sticking with them for the foreseeable future.

I just had to give my router and 4G back to 3 - they had a capacity problem - apparently they have put another 1Gbps on the mast but the speeds are still the same as more and more people gobble up this unlimited deal.

VM uses EE for their unlimited so I am sure EE can and will offer one soon to keep up with them - it looks bad if your MVNO does it but you don't - even 3 do it with their MVNO's now

Sorry to hear that. Here's hoping capacity doesn't become an issue for me. I get steady speeds of 60-80mbps, but given my rural setting, i don't see me being the only one grabbing this deal. I know of a good amount of homes that would sweep this deal up, if they know about it that is. Time will tell.

And i agree. It does look bad. Not much sense in it really. It'll all be about price at the end of the day.

Yeah the prices are a joke ,it was £70 for 200gig when we took out the contract last August but this had dropped to £50 but they will not drop what we pay which i think is a dam liberty.

Had to increase are usage to 300gig a month and we are paying £90 for it, problem is they have us totally over a barrel as I'm to accepting BT telling me we have a fibre line coming into the property but at best we achieved just under 1 meg which was like going back 20 years.

We are rural but i have done some research and we are only about 3 mile from the cabinet,BT are no help whatsoever and continued to charge us for the service 4 months after we cancelled it due to the poor broadband provided.

Did you say EE4G are going to be doing unlimited 4G ?

Yes, it's very expensive currently. Be sure to test a Three sim every now and then. Who knows, might just improve coverage near you.

No, not to my knowledge. Just an assumption considering Three are doing it and Virgin. I would think the bigger carriers will follow suit soon.

Well Virgin is customers only - although I think that will end soon - even the MVNO's are doing it now on 3 and EE
