EE network coverage via the EE website
This is the main way to check EE network coverage. EE’s tool checks signal strength and flags problems nearby.- Open EE’s mobile coverage checker.
- Enter your postcode, then select Check coverage.
- Review what EE shows for 4G and 5G in your area.
What the results mean
Coverage can look different indoors and outdoors. Your signal might be great on your street but terrible indoors because of the thickness of the walls. Speeds can also vary by location and demand, even with 5G.Via the Ofcom website
If you want a second opinion, Ofcom’s tool helps. It shows coverage on a map, and it separates indoor and outdoor predictions.- Open Ofcom Map Your Mobile.
- Enter your postcode, then load the map.
- Check Coverage first. Look at indoor and outdoor.
- Switch to Performance to see how likely streaming works locally.

A coverage map won’t tell you if there’s a fault today. EE’s service status checker can help with that.- Open EE service status. Log in, then run the check for your area.
- If EE shows planned work, note the time window.
