Two Thirds Of Mobile Traffic Could Be Hit
"The Irish Independent's technology editor Adrian Weckler it means about two thirds of Irish mobile data traffic could be hit."
"It's a particular problem for Three, because Three hosts an awful lot of other operators on it's network."
"These are called Virtual Operators."
"They include Virgin Mobile, Tesco Mobile, LycaMobile and Three's own sub-brand 48 which it's done a lot of marketing around recently."
"So that's five operators that might be affected by this outage."
