Vodafone boosts mobile broadband speeds
A leading internet service provider has enhanced the speed of its mobile broadband network.
Internet service provider Vodafone has announced it is boosting the speed of its mobile broadband.

Areas where demand for the services are the highest, such as London, Birmingham and Liverpool, are to benefit from speeds of up to 14.4 Mbps as the company looks to boost the reliability of its services.

The move will make Vodafone the first in the UK to offer such services.

Jeni Mundy, chief technology officer of Vodafone, said: "Customers trust us to deliver a mobile network that they can rely on – wherever they are and whether they are individuals, or a small, medium or large business.

"Today's network upgrade means customers can be reassured we're consistently enhancing the quality of our network in response to demand."

Earlier this year, Vodafone released a new plug-in system that could be used in homes to boost the mobile signal on offer.

The whole exercise of increasing broadband speed is seriously flawed, as all ISP’s have a limited fair usage policy, even those ISPs who claim to give unlimited download still state a fair usage policy is in place. Hence by increasing the download speed the faster you reach your limit, before you either have restrictions placed on you and at worse loose your contract. Until such time as this problem is addressed, the push to watch TV via Broadband will only hasten the problems occurrence. Signed Carl Barron Chairman of agpcuk
