I have a Three unlimited sim as my Internet connection at my static caravan. I am well out of contract.
Is a Smarty sim truly unlimited and would thre be any issues sticking it in a 4g router.
I get excellent reception on 3 but the cost will be rising to over £23.00 pm in April.
Thanks
Hi all just an update on my post 8 days a go asking about coverage I've been to the new estate a few times during the past few days and Smarty's partnership with Vodafone is really coming into its own. A lot of my new neighbours have really poor signal with the big 3. I've noticed when driving through the estate there are a lot of very fast transitions between 3 and Vodafone 4G masts. There are a couple of 3 5G masts not too far away but fairly low powered with a Vodafone 4G mast fairly close to the estate. Around the new property I'm getting solid 4G+ via the local Vodafone tower. Speeds aren't brilliant by any means but my Glinet XE3000 is stayed locked onto the Vodafone mast without any of our devices experiencing any lags loading webpages or any buffering even when watching different live streams at the same time so when the contract runs out with my current network the whole household is moving back to Smarty in a flash. My current provider only has half a bar at the new property not enough to make or receive regular calls but texts do go through after a while and of course they aren't interested in looking into improving coverage but want me to switch to home broadband which I'm not interested in. Smarty has 2 bars on an S22 so absolutely fine for watching content and no issues sending texts and 3/4 bars on a Glinet E5800 Mudi7 EU and Glinet XE3000.
I've noticed Smarty coverage is very sensitive when driving through town there are a lot of instant transitions between 4G, 4G+ and 5GNSA sometimes I can be on 5G for literally seconds before dropping back down to 4G but even with a 1 bar signal in certain deadspots the sim isn't unregistering from the network so whatever frequencies 3/Vodafone are using is doing the job as sensitivity is excellent. I am genuinely impressed to see how connectivity has improved since I've been away from Smarty for the past 15 months.
