New Three 5G user

Hi,

I’m a new user to Three and just got the 5G Hub on Tuesday, overall I’m really pleased with it however every now and again webpages will just hang for 1min before springing back to life.

Not sure if other people have this?

Using the HUAWEI CE Pro 2.

Speeds are 40ms 300MB with 5MB upload.

Changing APN can help, Three have two, also not using Three DNS servers does help, I use Cloudflare DNS. Three get this issue during busy periods due possibly to bad traffic management, using a VPN also works but there is a cost to that.

What is the other APN details to use? I have 3internet at the moment.

Also my router has a VPN section to populate but this looks like it can’t be used for Nord VPN that I have as the protocol isn’t supported.
 
The alternative APN is three.co.uk . Load it as a new APN and then swap between the 2 APN's to find the most reliable one which may change over time. 3internet gives a relatively fixed unique IP address which is good for accessing CCTV from external, three.co.uk is CGNAT and is a shared IP address which will give access issues and double NAT issues and give gamers trouble.
