EthanielUK While I do appreciate your difficulty, Smarty will perhaps be able to get info about mast works but will not be able to tell you whether you simply have a poor signal where you are.
Ummmm I jist walked to the mast which is 3 mins away 5 mins walking. And i downloaded at 728Mb a second using speedtest app.
I am now walking into city center walking away from mast 6 streets away and its now 101 MB dl speeds, sooo we have a power issue here the signal is weak

EthanielUK Sp, it is likely to be worse still inside your property - as seems to be the case unfortunately.

Well, thanks for the insight but I am literally two streets from the mast. This isnt a mast as in a upright mast atanding 60 ft up or higher, I think its a building mast stuck on the roof or on the side.
I may just but a signal booster see what happens.
Any insights to signal boosters

Hey,
You will likely experience a significant drop in download speeds as you move away from the mast. This could be due to various factors such as distance from the mast, obstructions like buildings or trees, interference from other electronic devices, or even atmospheric conditions.
When you're closer to the mast, you're likely within its optimal range, resulting in higher download speeds. However, as you move away, the signal strength decreases, leading to slower speeds.
This occurrence is common across all network providers.
