Good to see 4G rolling out in Tauranga. Looking forward to some decent coverage and a speedier network.

Wow, that is fast. Like UFB fast. Will slow down as more people join the tower though....

Okay, I was thinking of taking the vodafone SIM and test if the coverage has improved... I shall wait further and keep using Telecom for now!

Any ideas on how much it roughly costs to upgrade one tower with all the latest technologies? 4G, Dual carrier, upgraded 3G, a lot of new gear going in each one.

Commercial INFO but not cheap cause that's not all that needs to be upgraded, You also have new panels the transmission to the site the list goes on,
