Smartphone users with Telus can cruise the web at top speed with the launch of the world’s fastest wireless technology in greater Saint John.
It’s called 4G Long Term Evolution or LTE, and Ken Power, the director for Telus’ Atlantic region says the old network is more like dial-up internet, where the new network is like high-speed.
Downloads are approximately 75 megabits a second, making it seven to 10 times faster than the old network.
He says any customer with a relatively new smart phone should be on the network, but there’s no fee for the upgrade.
