Hi All,
I've been installing a lot of mobile broadband over the last six months or so. I've used a mixture of Three, EE and Vodafone. The EE and Vodafone connections have always been rock solid with few issues. Three caused a few problems as others have already reported with websites hanging during loading. I seemed to have solved this in all cases by lowering the MTU and changing the default DNS servers. I know this hasn't worked for everyone but it certainly has solved the problems on my installs.
I've now got a new problem reported very similar to the Three issue. This time it's affecting EE connections. Almost identical symptoms with good speeds reported but huge lag in loading web pages and often they won't load at all. Streaming is fine with no reported problems. Adjusting MTU and DNS servers has no effect on the problem. However using a VPN completely eliminates the problem and websites load without any delay. This is a recent issue with quite a few reporting the problem. All connected to EE but connected on different masts so it's not related to an isolated mast connection.
Anyone else experienced this and know why it's just a recent issue? I doubt there's any fix for this as it appears network related and, on this occasion, changing MTU and DNS doesn't help. Reported to EE who deny there's an issue - sounds familiar!
Thanks for any info.
