Traffic sign recognition is from a combination of the navigation map data (loaded via USB) and the forward facing cameras by the rear view mirror, so not affected by the loss of 3G.

Can’t find mention of a specific TCM, could be a function/piggy back on the nav control unit which is a cool £1200 part.

5G dongles are now available, but the price is a bit steep, -over £500! 😳 still nice to have 5G in your ffrr if you can afford it “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that? |

Hi, although 3G services in the UK will terminate as mentioned above it is worth noting that 2G services will be maintained till 2033 at least.

Andy, is a 3G/4G SIM not backwards compatible with 2G anyway? “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that? |

Hi, yes, it should be for EE, i.e. if no 3G service available should default back to 2G, however, that's not going to work for H3G as they don't have a 2G network.
