Factors influencing your actual speeds
Data download and upload speeds. The speed you will experience on your mobile device is limited by many factors such as:
- The topography of your location (for example any obstructions of the line of sight to the base station);
- Your distance from the base station;
- The local weather conditions (like extreme heat or heavy rain);
- How many other users are accessing the mobile network from the base station at the same time (i.e., number of concurrent users);
- Whether your device supports the relevant mobile network spectrum bands
- The hardware and software configuration on your device;
- Any speed cap or other restriction applied to your plan; and
- The destination of your internet browsing session (eg a busy web server).
