World’s fastest 3G hotspot launched by Telstra

It has been reported that Telstra has recently launched the world’s fastest 3G hotspot, giving Australians access to its new Telstra Ultimate® Mobile Wi-Fi.

According to recent reports Australians now have access to the fastest 3G hostpot in the world. This comes after the launch of the Telstra Ultimate® Mobile Wi-Fi, which is a device that is battery powered and is able to share Next G® mobile broadband connectivity with up to five devices at the same time.

The speeds provided by the new hotspot can range from 1.1Mbps to 20Mbps in Ultimate coverage areas, which includes over one hundred regional centres, capital city CBDs and a variety of metropolitan hubs. Businesses are already able to get their hands on the new device and consumers will have access to it from around 20th July.

Warwick Bray, Executive Director, Telstra Mobile Products said: “Australians are now taking a growing range of Wi-Fi enabled devices with them when they’re outside the home and office. However managing separate mobile broadband accounts for each gadget can be a hassle. The Ultimate® Mobile Wi-Fi device makes it easy for customers to connect up to five Wi-Fi-enabled devices simultaneously at speeds up to four times faster than currently achievable using similar competitor 3G Wi-Fi hotspot products in capital CBDs and selected regional areas.”

He added: “Equipped with an Ultimate Mobile Wi-Fi device, businesses can connect teams or multiple Wi-Fi enabled devices wherever there is Next G network coverage. This means businesses can now take their own fast network with them on customer visits, to trade and community events, or to temporary work locations. It gives businesses the flexibility to keep people productive when they’re out on the road by connecting to email and work files at fast internet speeds.”
