Mobile broadband
Our mobile broadband is already fast – giving you a lightning quick internet connection. But we’ve not stopped there.
We’re doubling our network capability this year utilizing 14.4Mbps, 21.6Mbps and higher technologies. This means even more of our customers will enjoy greater reliability and better average connection speeds on their existing devices.
| For example, a customer with an average download speed of 1.3Mbps should be able to download files in these times: | ||
| Large presentation
(5MB) |
Large photograph

Word document
(250KB) |
| 31 seconds | 12 seconds | 1.5 seconds |
| With our extra network capacity their download speeds can be more than twice as fast – and they’ll have the files in less than half the time. Even faster in the big cities. | ||
Our mobile broadband is award winning too. Judges at the ISPA looked at the speed and reliability of our network, as well as value for money.
The judges said they were impressed by our coverage, our range of contracts and the options we give for using mobile broadband overseas. Which is why they awarded it Best Consumer Mobile Broadband 2009.
