I can currently get around 240Mb down and 70Mb up on 4G. The Three offer was £21 p.m. for unlimited data, including the 5G hub over 24 mths. A no-quibble 14 day return was what convinced me to try. My trial lasted 6 hours! Despite trying multiple but limited positions in my study for the router I just couldn't get a consistent connection. I need the router to connect with my wired network so could not try other rooms. The Three hub only supports 24 devices for wi-fi which is useless, but typical. Speed varied from 0Mb both up and down to 210Mb down and 40 up. The up was more variable. Down varied between 40-300Mb. The inconsistency was the killer. I'll try again in a year's time perhaps! Also… Jeremy Harpham on Using streetlights as 5G masts from last week’s show. Looks like someone heard you, Ted! Link to an article in the register UK.gov spends £4m on 5G mobile mast lamppost project • The Register Kev Wright on my Ookla Speed Test Question I don’t exactly know how to put this into words (or if I am even right!) but I think your mobile internet speed is kinda fixed based on the mast you are on at the time and is variable by a lot of different conditions like distance, and other people on the same mast. I don’t think changing the server (even if you could) would matter as that would be overridden by the mast situation. I think the idea of having the ability to change it in Ookla is simply to allow you to get a test result if the default server is down or flooded. John Carson on Rifles feedback  Ted’s Homework Plugged in the Google TV thingie and it seems completely pointless when a person has a Roku. It has indeed got APV now, but nothing else that the Roku doesn’t do. I don’t get it. What’s the point? What are Google trying to attract people with?
