Your Vodafone coverage just got a big boost in the arm today
Vodafone has more than doubled the coverage of its mobile network from 400,000 to 1,000,000 square kilometres, with the expanded network going live today.
Heading outside the populated metropolitan areas of Australia has always been a gamble for mobile coverage. While all three of Australia's telco networks claim they deliver services to over 95% of the country, that number reflects Australia's condensed coastal population.
Australia is a lot of land, with the vast majority of its people clustered on the coast.
Telstra has long-been the best option for rural coverage, but a deal announced last year between Optus and Vodafone means that regional coverage for both telcos is set to get a lot better.
