Looks like Spark is finally expanding their network around the east cape - this is great! Any idea of when it will be live?

So will Vodafone and 2degrees with colocation and the East Cape is a large area any chance of narrowing it down?

Are you sure it's not just part of RBI2?

Yep, Hicks bay and Tikitiki has never had Spark coverage. Looks like Te Puia Springs are getting coverage too.

Do 2degrees or Vodafone offer coverage in any of these locations?

Cloud spending continues to surge globally, but most organisations haven’t made the changes necessary to maximise the value and cost-efficiency benefits of their cloud investments. Download the whitepaper From Overspend to Advantage now.

I know Vodafone have always had coverage - especially Hicks Bay/ Te Araroa. Spark’s coverage always finished at Ruatoria and didn’t come back until Opotiki. The East Cape is the only place Voda had superior coverage over Spark - looks like that’s about to change.

Pretty sure that's not a rbi site I'll double check when I'm in the office.

Voda and 2d are collocated there. 3g only.

Spark have or are doing 3g and 4g.
