3G

The title of this article should have been "Zaytung and 5G or you can surf the net faster as long as you behave as I want you to." President Tayyip Erdo?an spoke about Turkey's mobile network at an event earlier this week. He said Turkey is on 3G, whereas many countries have already begun installing 5G and LTE networks.

Turkey should skip 4G internet technology and move directly to 5G in two years, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an has said, but sector representatives have concerns about realizing this target, as the 5G technologies have been in the development stage and it might take some four years for the world to get 5G online.

Turkey's telecommunications regulator has set 2.3 billion euros ($2.44 billion) as the minimum price that mobile operators must pay to secure frequency bands for a new 4G network.

Bulgaria's largest telecommunications company Vivacom suffered a major outage on Tuesday, leaving its subscribers without access to their mobile phones and the Internet.

Representatives of Vivacom have announced for NOVA TV that such a problem existed and crews were working on fixing it.
