아일랜드 커버리지

아일랜드 수치가 뜻하는 것

중요한 숫자는 두 개인데, 모든 판매사가 인용하는 건 그중 하나뿐입니다. 일반적인 속도는 61 Mbps입니다. 상태가 좋을 때가 어느 정도인지 알려주는 숫자입니다.

읽을 값어치가 있는 건 10분위, 16 Mbps 쪽입니다. 역 위 기지국이 가득 차고 주변 사람들이 모두 같은 전파에 붙어 있는, 하루 중 아래쪽 10퍼센트일 때의 속도입니다. 중앙값이 높고 바닥이 낮은 나라는 정작 필요한 그 순간까지만 훌륭하게 작동하는 나라입니다.

영상 통화나 테더링이 꼭 필요한 여행이라면 일반 속도가 아니라 혼잡 시 수치를 기준으로 계획하세요.

아일랜드에서 망이 붐빌 때 벌어지는 일

혼잡은 고장이 아니라 화요일 저녁입니다. 문제는 그때 eSIM이 무엇을 할 수 있느냐인데, 대부분의 여행용 eSIM은 할 수 있는 게 없습니다. 나라마다 도매 계약 하나, 망 하나, 길에 선 채로 다른 회사 eSIM을 한 장 더 사는 것 말고는 빠져나갈 방법이 없습니다.

여기서 Orbislo 트래픽은 Vodafone 및 Three를 지납니다. 지금 쓰는 망이 나빠지면 여행 도중이라도, 요청하지 않아도 다른 망으로 옮깁니다. 그 순간에 방해하는 대신 옮기고 나서 알려드립니다.

• Vodafone switched off its 3G network in October 2024, which also ended 3G for Clear Mobile and An Post Mobile customers who use the Vodafone network.
• Eir is switching off its 3G network in phases from October 2026 and contacting customers who rely on 3G only services. The change also retires 3G for GoMo and Lyca Mobile, which run on the Eir network.
• Donegal is the first county to lose Eir's 3G, on 1 October 2026, with the other counties following in phases. Eir says calls and texts keep working for all its customers, and options for affected users include new settings, a free SIM or a compatible device.
• Where 3G is retired, phones that support only 2G and 3G still make calls over 2G, but mobile data drops to much slower 2G speeds. A 4G or 5G phone is not affected.
