I'm on holiday in France at the moment so I updated the reglo section. I've had 2 sims since last year but they never worked with 4G. This year I got 2 new sims and am now receving a 4G signal.

Reglo seems to be the best option for me as some of the places we regularly stay in don't have a good Orange signal (and free is nowhere to be seen). I live in Switzerland so it's convenient to have a sim that can be kept alive at low cost.

All of the plans are now on 4g although I haven't seen any spectacular data rates. I have a solid 4G signal here and measured between 2Mb/s and 0.2Mb/s download speeds at different times. Conversely upload has been up to 10-20Mb/S so I suspect reglo does not get the best QOS on the sfr network.

Tethering is now not forbidden and the new sims even come with an apn preinstalled but for me it did not work. I changed the apn to sl2sfr and then it did work. The same effect can probably be achieved by adding the apn type dun to the main apn.

I did manage to test the reduced data rate on the old 3GB 4G package. I measured 100Kb/s which was sufficient to keep google maps and whatsapp working but surfing is painful.
