A new YouGov survey of 4,328 British adults, which was commissioned by mobile operator O2<\/a>, has found that 36% of Brits currently working from home (1,351 of the respondents) are regularly switching to mobile broadband (4G<\/a> \/ 5G<\/a> data) to stay online and 61% say it’s made the working experience better.<\/p>\n

The aforementioned results are said to reflect those who are working from home and have “experienced issues with their broadband router<\/em>,” which meant they ended up connecting to mobile data instead as a backup (an example of casual network resilience in modern domestic connectivity). Sadly, the survey doesn’t examine what kind of “issues<\/em>” have caused this (e.g. slow ISP speeds, local network congestion, poor WiFi<\/a> etc.) and thus it lacks some context.<\/p>\n

The survey itself was conducted (between 22nd-24th January 2021) during the latest COVID-19<\/strong> lockdown, which has naturally forced more people to both work and play from home at the same time. The results state that this has led to 47% of respondents experiencing increased stress due to connectivity issues in their homes since January, while 28% have also considered switching to mobile data for that all important business call.<\/p>\n

Summary of Survey Results<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

— 45% of 18 to 24 year olds say they are more likely to use their mobile data for browsing social media.<\/p>\n

— 44% of all O2<\/a>’s data traffic went to streaming services, such as Disney+, in January.<\/p>\n

— 67% who are working from home and have been using mobile data agreed that access to it will be an important factor when choosing where to live in the future, which rises to 76% for 18 to 34-year olds.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Emma Evans, O2<\/a>’s Head of Network Experience, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Covid-19 has demonstrated that reliable mobile connectivity is essential, helping families across the UK home-school their children, stay connected to loved ones, and keep businesses across the nation up and running.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s because of this that O2 is committed to its role in rebuilding Britain, and why we are investing more in our network in 2021 than ever before.<\/p>\n

We are pleased that the use of mobile data is able to support families and households to get through this difficult, unprecedented time when connectivity is crucial for daily life.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

On the flip side various studies tend to show that O2 often trails EE<\/a> and Vodafone<\/a> for 4G<\/a> based mobile broadband speed (here<\/a> and here<\/a>). Nevertheless, modern 4G<\/a> (and if you’re lucky, 5G<\/a> too) based mobile data networks are significantly faster and more capable than past generations. On top of that many of the major operators are now offering “unlimited data”<\/em> style plans, which removes the worry of excess charges.<\/p>\n

In short, this often means that mobile connectivity, while not perfect and still highly variable in performance terms between locations, can increasingly be used for internet tasks that would have ordinarily been more the preserve of fixed line services. Indeed many people will also find that they can get better speeds over 4G than a lot of FTTC<\/a> lines, but experiences do vary.. by a lot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
