In the UK, there is a way of finding out if the area you are traveling to has a decent signal from various providers, and although I have first hand knowledge of just how crap the information they provide can be (even the latest ofcom one), I was wandering if there is an equivalent for France or Spain?

By the way, we are on mid Anglesey at the moment and it's the first time in 75 days of travel throughout the UK, that we have 5G.

I would be happy to settle for decent 4G which in too many places is still woeful.

Cellmapper.net plots the positions and coverage of masts you just need to know your location and service provider.

HERE for example are the 4g masts for 3 on Anglesey, if you click on a mast it should show you estimated coverage area. They don't list 5g that I've found, I believe that's due to "conspiracy theorists" wanting to destroy the 5g masts.

Google searches will give options such as this one. Also operators such as Vodaohone or EE will give coverage information based on their coverage or partners coverage. If you buy a local SIM card that company website normally gives the coverage information.

None of which provides and answer to the question in the OP.
Hopefully the OP may “wonder no more “. Google comes up trumps. 👍 But it’s probably not much better if at all than the signal maps in UK. You get what you get.

In Europe you will rarely if ever be without a signal as your phone or mi-fi containing a UK SIM will roam freely across the available infrastructures .
