4G & 5G Broadband Solutions
IMPORTANT: Depending on where you live in the country will determine whether you can receive 4G or 5G broadband.
Please feel free to contact us to establish which one you can receive.
4G BROADBAND
Accessing the internet via 4G has become an increasingly viable option for rural areas as a broadband solution. With advances in technology, 4G networks have enabled high speed internet connectivity that rivals traditional broadband options. This is especially important in remote areas where laying fibre optics or other forms of infrastructure would be difficult and costly.
4G broadband is the fourth generation of wireless technology, which offers faster internet speeds and more reliable connectivity than its predecessor. With 4G technology, downloading large files, streaming high quality videos, browsing web pages and social media platforms are much faster and smoother. Data is transferred through a network of mobile phone towers to user devices like smartphones and tablets at speeds up to 100 megabits per second.
One of the significant benefits of accessing the internet via 4G technology is its speed. It offers faster download and upload speeds compared to 3G networks, making it easier to access online content, stream videos or attend video conferences with ease. 4G networks provide better coverage for remote or low lying areas compared to its predecessors. Networks such as 3G or EDGE are currently being phased out by the mobile phone operators.
5G BROADBAND
5G mobile broadband is the latest generation of cellular network technology designed to offer faster internet speeds and low latency connectivity. With 5G, users can enjoy download and upload speeds that are several times higher than what is available with current 4G networks while experiencing much less lag time when accessing data in real-time applications such as online gaming or virtual reality. 5G technology operates on different frequencies which allows for greater capacity and wider coverage.
The major benefit of 5G technology lies in its speed. The typical 5G internet speeds in the UK can vary depending on a number of factors, such as location and network provider. However, it is generally expected that 5G will provide significantly faster speeds than its predecessor, 4G. Some network providers claim to offer download speeds of up to 1 Gbps, which is around ten times faster than the average speed for 4G connections. Of course, actual speeds experienced by users may not always match those advertised by network providers due to factors such as signal strength and congestion.
It is worth noting that while 5G is still relatively new in the UK, it is expected to become more widely available in the coming years and could revolutionise the way we connect to the internet both at home and on-the-go.
