Are Three Having Broadband issues tonight?

[natastrophe]

I've lost signal on my three mobile broadband several times tonight and now its back, certain site wont load, including

fast.com

bbc.co.uk

The sites are back now, but there seems to be network coverage issues and DNS issues intermittently, yet no service update from Three.

Down Detector has a spike in reported outages too.

Anyone else having problems?

My network has been messing up whole day

Hey @Ledgel,

Welcome to the Three Community.

I'm sorry to hear this. How's your signal been today? Have you had any issues?

If so, I'd check out our Network Status Checker, as any reported issues or work going on in the area will be updated here. 

Have you also tried restarting your device or resetting your network settings?

Thanks,
Kate

no internet at all today has cost me numerous problems at work, as I rely on my phone & internet daily....been not internet since I got up at 6am this morning & it's still not working.

They seem to have problems most nights. I am considering getting another ISP, 5 months early, before my contract ends. Never again.

Ive been with three four three years and they have never even attempted to resolve the issues related to the different APNs and secure banking.Due to my location Im stuck with three, the only thing that works reliably is 3g on 3internet APN,  dont get me wrong I can get 4g, the mast is 200m away in direct line of sight, but at  any time between 5 and 9pm the teenagers are rinsing it and downloads drop to less than .9m, even streaming low quality is impossible.Three will do nothing about except advise me that unlucky for me 3g is stopping and my  poor but reliable 1to 2m download speed is soon to be no more.Contract up soon ,so time to look for an alternative.Customer service can be helpful and friendly but honestly they seemingly have no power to do anything at all .

Hi everyone,

Sorry to hear you've been having these intermittent connection issues yesterday. If these are persisting, try powering the router off for a couple of minutes and then switching it back on.

You can also check for any local issues on our Network Status Checker.

Thanks,
Jonathan

Three really need to address the issues with the different APNs and the the issues accessing Google services, and the apps I mention. Rebooting a router will not fix this. Three have a problem with their internet provision.

For instance, why on 3internet APN does Discord not work, it wont load images or update feeds? Why does my Barclays Bank app run painfully slow on 3internet? When I switch to three.co.uk APN, these apps are fine, but then I cannot use DDNS or port forwarding.

There is clearly an issue that needs looking at.

Thanks folks, my connection is back today, but issues (on the 3internet apn) remain, apps like Discord, google authenticator and My Cupra wont work correctly, for instance discord wont load images. Switch apn to three.co.uk and all is good except google stuff. My nest mini too has connectivity issues. I know this as when switch back to my BT internet, they all work!

The problem with the three.co.uk apn is that it does not support port forwarding and ddns.

Glad to hear playstation stuff works though!

Yeah having intermittent issues loading most websites on phone/laptop. PS5 hasn't been able to connect to internet properly since 8 pm.
