Once wapda power is down, we do not even get 4g outdoor signals in my village area Tehsil Alipur. All the telecom companies are installing towers in cities. They treat village people not equal Pakistanies as are in cities.
exactly i m also from tehsil alipur.They are not providing proper services here.
Jazz shoud do the same and install as much towers with band aggregation of band 3 1800mhz+band 1 800mhz with 20mhz channel bandwidth for the best coverage possible currently this configuration is deployed but power and electricity issues make it hard to have consistent network results all over city and throughout the day and they should also work for coverage around small villages and tehsils because those areas need it more than cities and also they should install 2ghz band in densely populated areas in city that’ll be a huge benefit to get speeds more than 120 or 100 Mbps also 5G should be delayed till 2025 Q2 till then 4G should be strengthened so that transition can be a very smooth experience
The big flaw of jazz is that Jazz is very expensive than all networks, it is expensive in very high margin, So jazz is highly not recommended, why jazz is too much expensive while jazz has very less 4G footprint and number of 4G sites, and also jazz is not as stable as it is charging on the name of stable network.
Bro it’s the fastest network for a reason even in small cities they deploy their band 3 which is fking expensive and one tower on band 3 can cover 10km if power issues aren’t there and i get speed of 145 mbps in night sometimes down to 120 their actual problem is low deployment around villages and their business cost is very high since they use bands like band 3 1800mhz and band 8 800mhz everywhere unlike other operators who only deploy in major urban cities or only for financial hubs like karachi lahore Islamabad e.t.c
Zong is requested to separate their tower from Ufone at Village Landiwah District Lakki Marwat as the tower is providing 3 networks signals at a time, so the network and tower running is badly effected.
