If your experiences with 5G have been at 2mbps, it might be worth checking the local network using the <A href="https://www.three.co.uk/support/network-and-coverage/coverage?tab=2#tabs-c2d0d12ce8-item-2988999184-tab" target="_self">status checker</A>&nbsp;to see if there's a known issue in the area.&nbsp;</P> <P>You could also try resetting the network settings on your device to ensure the speeds are not being limited by accident, and of course it's always a good idea to turn the device off and back on just in case there's been a bug. If you're still having the issue after that, I'd recommend reaching out to the <A href="https://www.three.co.uk/support/contact-us" target="_self">support team</A> where it can be looked into further.&nbsp;</P> <P>Pete.&nbsp;</P> Sat, 14 Feb 2026 09:42:49 GMT PeteG 2026-02-14T09:42:49Z https://community.three.co.uk/t5/Broadband/Why-is-three-5g-2mbps-speed-Is-there-any-point-to-go-beyond-3g/m-p/67044#M10693 <P>Why is three 5g 2mbps speed?
