flag Telstra and Optus plan to shut down 3G networks on August 31 and September, despite concerns raised by a Senate inquiry.

flag Telstra and Optus plan to shut down their 3G mobile networks on August 31 and September, respectively, despite concerns raised by a Senate inquiry about potential risks to public safety, business continuity, and essential services. flag The telcos argue that switching off 3G will allow them to repurpose spectrum for better 4G and 5G coverage, including in regional and rural areas, and have committed to providing equivalent coverage after the closure. flag The inquiry recommended an urgent meeting between the federal government, Optus, and Telstra to potentially delay the shutdown to allow for an extensive audit of affected devices.
