Coverage in South of France

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi - I'm new my name's Maureen.  I used to have a good signal here in my holiday home in the South of France but no more....... The network used to connect through Orange but not now for some reason it is Bouygues, whose signal is sometimes non existent. What's gone wrong between O2 and Orange?  I try all sorts of reconfiguring eg switch off automatic select Orange, turn off, turn on etc etc - so frustrating...... why doesn't it connect with orange any more?
