I don't know who Amazon contracted to. Amazing they haven't cancelled.

The electricity Smart meters don't have 4 G, nor the alarms. So which ever Irish operators have the 2G/GSM/EDGE, they can't be turning it off. Though 3G was faster, it was less reliable. It used 5 MHz channels. The GSM (and EDGE) 2G uses 0.2 MHz channels and has no cell breathing. The 3G was poor because it was based on USA CDMA 2G, which was the most common in USA and seriously inferior to GSM, though it used 1 MHz channels.

Three was maybe once the only operator without GSM, but they were unfortunately allowed to buy O2. Three outsource everything. They are a marketing company owned in Hong Kong.

Anyway, it's pointless. The DXG should never have been made or sold. I feel Amazon scammed me. It was only a screen upgrade of the DX. So though released the same time as the Gen 3 Keyboard, it's grossly inferior. The K1, K2 & DX family all obsolete SW at launch. Fortunately the Gen3 etc had later back port of AZW3.

The DXG is junk compared to slightly younger K3.
