How is it possible that some providers use the network of other providers? This can be done by the MNO and MVNO construction, in this article we will discuss what MNO and MVNO are and what the difference is between them.

T-Mobile will switch off the 2G network in November 2020. Will you notice anything about this? Yes that is possible. If you have hardware that is only suitable for a 2G network and only the 2G network spectrum of T-Mobile is used, then this hardware can no longer be used in combination with a T-Mobile subscription after November 2020. In that case, a sim change must be performed!

Thingsdata advises on the phasing out of T-Mobile’s 2G network and how this will affect an organization’s IoT strategy. If the hardware has not yet been written off, it is possible to continue with a multi-network M2M simcard that makes use of the 2G network spectrum of both KPN and Vodafone. Both operators have issued a continuity guarantee that 2G will remain ‘in the air’ until 2025!

Thingsdata is specialized in monitoring and managing roaming M2M simcards that use multiple networks. For example, in the Netherlands on KPN, T-Mobile and Vodafone, and also on multiple technologies (2G, 3G, 4G and 5G). The shutdown of both 2G and 3G networks in the coming years could affect device performance. We continuously advise on the state of affairs of the technologies and, for example, one of the options a 4G growth strategy. Below is the current state of affairs:
