UrBC, Yekaterinburg, February 14, 2019. MegaFon’s telecom engineers expanded the ISP’s 4G coverage by an extra 70 meters in Yekaterinburg, which sped up the local users’ Internet connection by 1.5 times, the company’s press service reports.

‘Kuibyshev St, Lenin Ave, Malyshev St, Vosmoye Marta St, Moskovskaya St, and Mashinostroiteley St are now mobile congestion-free. Both local users and visitors to Yekaterinburg can now enjoy ‘speeding’ online even during the rush hours,’ the press service says.

The improvements were made possible due to the launch os LTE 1 800 at the telecom company’s base stations. 700,000 people in fifty-two different streets in Yekaterinburg have been enjoying a faster 4G connection since the start of the year.

MegaFon’s engineers focused specifically on the locations with surging online traffic, including Bolshakov St, Gagarin St, Gurzufskaya St, Krasnoarmeyskaya St, Karl Marx St, Lunacharsky St, Vainer St, Vishnevaya St, Vokzalnaya St, and Vostochnaya St.

The users’ live streaming experience also got better in Khokhryakov St, Oktyabrskaya St, Popov St, Pushkin St, Serov St, Tekhnicheskaya St, and Turgenev St. Video and audio message-sharing can now be done even faster in Chapayev St, Sibirsky Tract, Shchors St, Shartashskaya St, Sheinkman St, and Tsvilling St. Webinar-watching is now glitch-free in Klyuchevskaya St, Repin St, Surikov St, Palmiro Togliatti St, Yumashev St, and Yeremin St.

‘High-speed Internet connection is the key criterion for a user’s comfortable online surfing experience. We did some major work to make sure our customers can enjoy totally new opportunities. Thanks to LTE 1 800, the average data transfer speed rose considerably, which relieved the 3G networks’ load. LTE 1 800 ensures a stronger, more stable indoor signal and larger traffic capacity. Users can now enjoy top speed connection even at peak traffic hours,’ says MegaFon Sverdlovsk Region’s Tech Director Yakov Pakhomi.
