And this became possible due to the inclusion of broadband technology in the cellular network. Examples of such broadband cellular networks are 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G and 6G. In this article, I am sharing information about 5G network with you.

Just imagine that you are going somewhere while looking at the direction in Google Maps and Google Map stops showing you the way forward due to poor network connectivity. How much trouble will you face at such a time?

Let's take another example - If we have installed smart bulbs, smart switches at home and the switch does not turn on due to poor Wi-Fi network, then you will have to live in the dark.

To deal with similar problems, the need for 5G technology has increased and now all mobile operators want to provide 5G facility to their customers.

  • With more wireless devices being connected, the chances of hacking personal and business data will also increase.
  • New towers will have to be set up for 5G, which will cost a lot.
  • Till now there are many rural places where even 4G network towers are not enough, it will take years for 5G network to come in such places.
