Rostelecom began to provide mobile services in St. Petersburg

On August 1, Rostelecom began providing mobile services in St. Petersburg. As reported on the company's website, the 3G standard provides speeds of up to 21Mbps. Check it out.


New SIM-cards from Rostelecom



In the office of Rostelecom, the speed of service is not given much importance, but if there is no hurry, then 15 minutes per client is quite normal. Naturally, there were quite a few wishing. If I'm not mistaken, there are SIM cards of different sizes on sale. But I was not offered, and the usual mini-SIM was fine with me. Numbers to choose from, but from the list all the beautiful numbers like 0012345 were removed. Gold numbers of 1000 rubles each, platinum 5000 each.

Unfortunately, there was no network. The device is connected to the megaphone.
It turned out that in the settings I turned off 3G when I was on vacation. And my previous operator, 3G was missing. And without 3G enabled in the settings, Simka was not activated. Connected to the Rostelecom network: RTK-SPB.

Voice quality is good, the signal level in my home is average. So, it's time to check the data transfer rate.
First, the speed was less than 1 Mbit / s, then increased slightly.

From the device, the receiving speed is more than 5 Mbit / s, the transmission is about 3 Mbit / s.

From a computer when using the phone as a Wi-Fi modem, the result is comparable.
