    Well just happened the other day out of nowhere connection dropped and then got stuck on and EDGE connection... 5 bars of signal and it won't move from EDGE

    Really annoying... Is it a cell issue or something on my end I think it's something to do with meteor since it just happened randomly one night without me doing a thing

    Any thoughts or suggestions to fix this?

    It's a Huawei B260a recieving the signal and can't seem to sort it

    really annoyin :pac:


    edit: works fine with a dongle... 5 bars 3g

    ill try a reset of the router... thiis pretty annoyin

    This is the case , intermittent drops in coverage and some bouts total blackout.

    I could not make calls,sms and had no data for a good while this evening

    So it's a thing on Meteor's end!? my phone has been acting up a bit too

    anything to do with more people in Dublin for the GAA match!?

    It goes to 3g every once it a while but still dropouts and stuck on edge... the dongle seems to get a more consistent 3g connection though =/

    weird and very annoying!

    anything i can do about it apart from ring and complain!? it's still goin on!

    dongle still works a bit better but its not goin 3g... a three sim works 3g too on it no probs so its not the router either

    this is happening to me every day for the past 2 weeks now and before that it never happened. I rang meteor and they refuse to admit to any problem on their end and tell me I should just connect on 2g and that would be much better (What?) Funny how these providers still think they can spout any crap to the consumer and we'll believe it.

    Same here, it comes and goes for the last 2 weeks mainly getting stuck on edge, need to do a reset to get it going again on 3g now but this is having a giraffe at this stage

    really annoying and seems to be nothing i can do!

    The problem is on meteors end but seeing as though they refuse to accept this then it'll probably go on for a while. I was told by a call centre rep last week that there was an issue which they were looking into and that it should be fixed within 3 days but now they deny that there ever was a problem and are starting to blame the weather and all the other usual lines that they spout because they believe the end consumers are stupid.

    I thought that Greater Dublin was being migrated to the new O2/Meteor Active RAN shared network called Mosaic.

    I'd google that if I could! Is this what's f'n up everything!?
