I just got this notification: Public Mobile here! We've enabled VoLTE (Voice over Long-term Evolution) on our network. To enjoy uninterrupted voice services while roaming in the U.S., a VoLTE capable device and a VoLTE enabled network are required.Yo...

I think I asked this before, or the answer is somewhere here but I can't find it.But to get into the Public Mobile Self Service, I have of course an email address and a very carefully saved password. The password does not work. It offers to reset it...

Does this happen to anyone else? Haven't used the self serve for a while. Try to log in with email address and password (which I have written down, definitely not forgotten). It says it is invalid. Typo? Try a second time, very carefully. Still ...

It seems the Ontario Police have figured out there's such a thing as a SIM swap attack, which actually reminds me to ask: Assuming one wanted to steal a Public Mobile user's text messages by either of these means: 1. I need to switch to a different S...

My parent's camp is a place with marginal cell coverage. Bell works barely at the lakeshore, Rogers doesn't work at all unless you go to a hilltop with south view. Koodo works best of all. Phones get signal over most of the camp and solid coverage...

It says "Data Network type: LTE" and "Voice network type: LTE". So I guess I'm good, right?

I did try that (force 3G, or rather set it as the preferred connection type), seeing as that's all my old phone could do. Made no difference. No trace of signal anywhere at the camp.

My Koodo SIM got cancelled when the phone number got switched to Public. However, my mom has a Koodo landline replacement gadget, and it works exactly as well at the camp as it did in the past so it is unlikely the network configuration has changed.

Here is the likely cell tower. I have to assume it's a Bell/Telus shared one, since only Bell and Rogers towers show in the area, and view to the south is blocked (no coverage at all on Rogers, so I assume none from the colocated Bell site either). ...

Actually what helped is going back to the computer and browser that I created the account on (and auto-saved the password). It's possible that I got mixed up in the portal/community thing or misnoted the password. Changed it to something else just ...
