Model Railway Forum

If it works for me on mobile data 'H' (low signal level) it should work for you on 4G.

Please try to clear the browsers cache.

Can you try accessing it by using this link... www.modelrailwayforum.co.uk/index.php


If it loads on O2 correctly as per my screen short previously there is no reason what so ever other than a cache issue or incorrect URL, why it wont load for anyone else!

No change, I'll get onto EE again, amazing what happens when you speak to a different person.

To add to this a bit further.. I've just been out and got 4G data signal and the forum loads almost instantly.

But you've just said in a previous post you dont use mobile data to connect?
WiFi will work immediately as its usually so fast. Mobile is just too slow currently. My mobile automatically uses WiFi rather than 4G whenever possible
If the forum works on WiFi on the same device then the only missing link is the speed of the mobile connection (or lack of it)

No I don’t use my mobile at all for the forum but John said EE, I have EE so thought I would try for him, that’s all. I won’t next time.

Thanks WTD. You have explained how now. Without that explanation your original "I don't use my mobile to access the forum" was the factor.

BTW this is all written via O2 network with WiFi turned Off. No issues here with O2 at all.

Thanks Brian.

Same issue on EE for me. Same phone on wifi goes straight in.

I'll probably get flamed for this but I think since the resurrection of the site and/or the change from http to https, the site has become more "fussy" regarding some connections. I started a thread regarding connection via a VPN. I did get it sorted by finding a VPN server that works consistently with this site whereas many didn't.

For what it's worth my mobile connects ok over data using an EE PAYG sim.
