3G Network Shutdown
Why are Australia’s 3G networks closing?
∙As more advanced 4G and 5G network services become widespread, mobile carriers around the world are closing their 3G networks.
∙4G and 5G networks are more efficient at delivering greater speed and capacity, which means better service and experience.
∙Similar network closures have happened before. A few years ago, all Australian mobile providers switched off their 2G networks when they upgraded to 4G.
