Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

HSDPA speeds, 3?

What speeds do you generally get on HSDPA with 3? I get no more than 2mbit, but surely the network should be upgraded to 3.6mbit by now?

you'd never get 3.6mbps. the mast is only capable of sending 3.6mbps so you have to be standing under the mast and be the only person connected

Even then you most likely won't get it.

The link between the mast and their backhaul is only 2mbps at best.

Well if your getting 2mb most of the time your doing better than the vast majority of mobile broadband customers in Ireland.
