Three has launched its 5G service for the home, initially available to residents of certain areas of London only But, in a trial by the BBC prior to the public launch, the signal was found to be flaky

CCS Insight analyst Ben Wood said the launch marked a"tentative step" into the 5G market for Three in the UK.

"The 100MHz of contiguous spectrum is the optimal package when it comes to rolling out 5G technology. I haven't got a landline telephone in my house and haven't had one since I moved out of the family home, when I was 18. Three let me borrow one of its new 5G routers over the weekend to try out its wireless home broadband service.A test suggested I could expect download speeds of 250Mbps, making it faster than my current broadband.To help with that, it comes with a bulky router. Big by modern standards, it is, after all, a massive antenna.It worked best on a corner table, balanced on top of its packaging, with the back of the unit facing into the room.
