What happened: A test of onboard wi-fi on the Norwich to London train revealed poor connectivity and frequent disruptions. Passengers often rely on mobile data or offline options to stay connected.
Why it matters:
- Poor wi-fi affects commuters who depend on internet access for work or entertainment during journeys
- It highlights ongoing challenges in improving digital infrastructure on UK trains compared to other European countries
MNN Take: Train wi-fi quality varies widely, and many UK services struggle to provide reliable connections. Passengers adapt by using alternative methods to maintain internet access while travelling.
