The system can be used with a Net&Roll 4G mobile internet package and an LTE-enabled device in the areas covered. T-Mobile offers 4G USB modems or Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 LTE tablets for the service. In addition, it is also possible to order from T-Mobile’s website the 4G router, which, once connected to the 4G/LTE network, distributes the large bandwidth provided by the technology among wifi enabled equipment. In this way the internet can be used simultaneously on several devices (notebook, tablet, smart phone) in the same household or office, thus benefiting from the advantages** of the 4G/LTE network.

The service provider is rolling out the 4G/LTE based mobile internet service to the agglomeration of Budapest and several country towns this summer and it continues to extend coverage in Budapest as well.

*Outdoor coverage: In the area concerned mobile internet service is available outdoors and, in certain cases, within the buildings situated in the area of external coverage. Indoor coverage: In the area concerned mobile internet service is available also within buildings subject to the consideration that the signal is generally stronger near windows and on higher floors.

***The speed the subscriber experiences depends on the availability of the equipment and tariff package supporting the technology concerned, as well as on whether the network and the tariff package supports the speed at the given point, furthermore on radio and usage conditions.
