Which mobile carrier has the fastest download speeds in Tocumwal?

No problem., but this kind of information is highly subjective and may change depending on your exact location, the technology used(4G vs 3G) and even weather. As such, there is no concrete answer to your question.

Why would it change because of the weather?

That's a great question! While the effect might go unnoticed, it is not unusual to encounter such issues due to weather conditions. There several reasons why it could get affected by such.
Namely,

1. Atmospheric Interference: Weather can affect the way radio waves travel through the atmosphere and this can cause interference or signal attenuation that can affect your signal strength and quality. For example, thunderstorms or heavy rainfall can cause a phenomenon known as attenuation, in which the radio waves are absorbed or scattered by the raindrops or clouds, resulting in a weaker signal and slower data transmission speeds.

2. Network Congestion: Extreme weather conditions such as hurricanes or snowstorms can cause power outages, damage to infrastructure, and disruptions to communication networks, resulting in network congestion and slower data transfer speeds.

3. Physical Obstacles: Weather conditions such as fog, haze, or heavy rain can obscure the line of sight between your device and the cell tower, resulting in weaker signal strength and slower speeds.

4. Temperature Changes: Temperature changes can cause physical changes to the equipment and transmission medium that can affect signal quality and strength. For example, extreme heat can cause devices to overheat, causing performance issues, while extreme cold can cause the transmission medium to contract, resulting in signal loss.
