Telstra’s 3GIS Network Has 30 Days To Live


Do you have your Telstra 3G affairs in order? I hope you do, because the telco reaper is coming for you and your obsolete 3G service in 30 days time.

Telstra is set to switch off the 2100Mhz 3GIS network on 31 August so that it can refarm the spectrum around the rest of its existing 3G network.

The telco will keep 2G, Next G and 4G will remain operational.

The network only covers 9000 square kilometres of the country and the telco hasn’t sold a device on the network since 2010.

Are you going to be caught out?
