Why does mobile signal fluctuate like this?

2.76K views

I’ll be sitting in the same place with 5/5 signal and 4G internet. Then suddenly no signal at all. Then 2/5 signal and no internet. Then 1/5 signal and E internet. All within 10 minutes while sitting in the exact same spot.

Why? Why does this happen? Thanks!

You are constantly in between multiple cell sites. On average they are only a few miles apart.

1. If you happen to be in an area where the local site is too busy, you might get kicked off that particular tower so that they can service more voice traffic.

2. The local tower may be experiencing problems

3. There may be interference near the local tower, making you connect to a more distant tower.
