Another possibility: For whatever reason, JA exclusively uses GSM for access (independent of whatever connection the embassy uses) and this was cut off at the behest of some state actor.

In any case, this is all speculation until we get some kind of evidence of some kind.

If recreations of Julian Assange's room in the embassy (from memory; photographs are not allowed due to embassy rules) are correct, then Assange uses a wireless router just like the rest of us.
