Best Data Coverage in the Maynooth/Lucan/Leixlip area

    I am a student in Maynooth. I just got a new phone and I may be moving to either one of the three towns above. I was just wondering who the best Network is in terms of Data Coverage as well as Network Coverage. I am looking for a decent network that will hopefulle deliver 4G in most areas with at least 15Gb of data for less than €20. At the moment Lycamobile is looking good with Unlimited calls and texts as well as 30GB data for €15. But I don't know what their coverage is like in those areas.
    Anyone got any ideas? Thanks

    Certain areas between Leixlip, Maynooth and dunboyne (like carton house for example) are complete 4G blindspots for me - on vodafone

    You can see who has masts where here:

    Check each mast as a lot are only 2G.

    GSM = 2G
    UMTS = 3G
    LTE = 4G

    Many GSM-only masts on Three's network were formerly O2.

    You will be stuck on the legacy O2 network only if using Lycamobile (for now, anyway). This is EXTREMELY bad in Maynooth at least. Poor quality voice, no data is common.

    Vodafone has full 4G all over these areas.
