Streaming doesn't affect the FUP. I've had Netflix on nonstop this last week.

That is great news.
Currently have a 4meg adsl line with no prospects of increasing it. Syncing at 2,5meg is the problem.
Sometimes struggling to stream showmax.

Sorry to hear. I signed up on the 14th.

On a lighter note, got called by the courier company, they delivering this afternoon :D

Sorry though. I am the last person to speak but it's a patience game...

Here's my signal stats according to http://192.168.8.1/api/device/signal
<cell_id>14081026</cell_id>
<rsrq>-3dB</rsrq>
<rsrp>-104dBm</rsrp>
<rssi>-79dBm</rssi>
<sinr>8dB</sinr>

Using external antenna and have LOS but best I could get. I'm 1.1km away from the tower. Speedtest:
View attachment 333333

Still much faster than my 4Mbit ADSL that was doing 2.5Mbit. Was expecting much faster but 10x the speed I had is much better.

I'm 700m outside of LTE coverage map, get roughly the same speeds... 2 bar LTE signal on a B593s-601 with no external antenna on a prepaid sim, still trying to convince them to get me the uncapped deal, but they keep telling me about how I don't have LTE.

just apply with an address within the coverage area. ask them to deliver to your "work" address - ie where you will be during the day...
