Vodafone upgrades 3G network in Manchester

Vodafone has announced a major upgrade to its fast mobile broadband coverage in the city.

A multi-million pound investment will upgrade Vodafone's wireless coverage to speeds reaching 5Gbps, and will offer a simplified billing structure to customers.

The service will be available through USB modems, data cards or plug-and-play software and aims to be up to 10 seconds faster when downloading a 2 MB file.

Alec Howard, head of PC Connectivity for Vodafone UK said "Manchester, along with five other major conurbations, is now the fastest network in UK. We have been heavily investing in the network so that when people are out and about they can get the same wireless experience that they do in the office."
