Emissary Level Junior Detective. The SIM cards were the same, However the serial numbers were a different string. As such those within certian strings were on 3G and those on different strings were NextG. So when a customer had a problem with the network you would just check there SIM serial number and then just send them out a new card to make it NextG Provided there phone supported it Will update with something clever when the brain starts working!

Both phones are able to recieve the MHz that Telstra is using to roll out the 4G. Weather or not they will im not sure, as im not that technical.

Thanks Emissary. Also I agree that the post is helpful, so a kudos to you Emissary! KrayzeeKev Level Bureau Chief. In response to KrayzeeKev. KrayzeeKev wrote: There is no plural. J-Bellav Level 2: Rookie. Optus' 3G networks operate at Mhz and 2,Mhz, but in the 4G space it presents a very complex picture. Optus' claim is that it covers Back in , TPG announced it would be rolling out its own 4G mobile network to rival the big three sometime in , but there's been little in the way of news on that front since.
In the meantime, you don't have to buy a 4G mobile plan directly through Optus, Telstra or Vodafone if you don't want to. All three companies also sell wholesale access to their networks to other companies that operate as mobile virtual network operators MVNOs. They're virtual because what you're actually doing is connecting to Telstra, Vodafone or Optus' networks, but they're branded differently.
Pricing for MVNOs is usually focused on budget offerings and they can actually be cheaper than the big providers. However, there are a few factors to keep in mind when assessing whether an MVNO is a better choice for you. Telstra's wholesale arm does sell access to its network, but it doesn't typically offer the full 4GX Telstra network. This means that network coverage is often smaller than that of the "full" Telstra network and average speeds are a bit lower. Optus is the most active provider of MVNO services with a number of partners, including well known names such as amaysim , Vaya and Yomojo , all of which offer full access to Optus' 4G networks.
Vodafone has dropped in and out of being an MVNO wholesaler, but recent expansions to its 4G network mean it's a much more competitive player. Lebara , which focuses strongly on attracting callers who want to make extensive overseas calls, is also a partner. It also works with smaller provider, CMobile. As with any telecommunications product, the value of 4G depends heavily on how you plan to use it. If your mobile is there primarily for you to make and receive calls, you won't see much difference moving from 3G to 4G.
That's because Australian telcos are still largely serving voice calls over 3G networks, with only a few offering 4G LTE voice services. Where 4G really shines is in data services. If you're a heavy data user, especially for services that utilise large files such as video streaming, then 4G's speed benefits over 3G will have a greater impact on your usage and enjoyment of mobile networks.
