Previously id only get 100 MBPS down on a good day.

Now getting this on my 5G with the H112-372.

Close to 300 MBPS. Technically I cant pick up 5G on the coverage maps but they arent always correct as clearly seen here.

Im guessing 3 have sorted their issues with backhaul now and their cloud network?
 
Let's hope it lasts, try also at peak times.
I wouldn't say fhey "fixed it", you are probably an isolated case.

People still having major issues with their B5xx devices on 3 still?
 
Yes, but it's not the devices, it's Three ..
 
😔

That's really bizarre! I used to have the same issues as the others with both my devices but something has massively changed...
 
Was it 5G before (when 100Mbps)?

I suspect that three may have been waiting on a backhaul upgrade before rolling out the full 100mhz bandwidth to your mast (they used to deploy just 40mhz if there wasn't adequate backhaul in place). That increase in spectrum kind of aligns with the speed increase you're reporting.

I figured that might be the case because of the recent Fibre contracts Three signed into for Backhaul.

It was 5G before. Wouldnt surprise me then if they held back the specturm in this case. But would 100Mhz in the range they provide truly give me 350 MBPS?

I say that because since my initial post its peaked even higher.

On EE which has much less spectrum than Three on 5G I peak 550 Mbps some mornings, but usually stays over 300 Mbps all day.
 
With the capacity that Three have the theoretical speeds are into the 1Gbps range - though obviously those aren't going to be seen (much) in practice.
 
Actually erm.. Town Centre near where I live.

RIP my data allowance though...

There are other areas near an airport that I can test with my 2 mobiles devices that I get close to 800 - 900 MBPS.
