Better mobile broadband capabilities are offered by Vodafone than any other firm, it has been claimed this week.
LCC International said that the Vodafone network is most reliable in terms of loading pages and downloading files via USB or data cards.
Such operational positives were seen across a number of areas, the firm stated, such as both rural and urban areas, in homes and offices, and even in airports.
On average, a 2MB file could be downloaded in 13.54 seconds, LCC International revealed, ten seconds faster than anywhere else.
Vice President of the company Neil Smith noted that the testing was stringent and that it was as fair as possible.
"We have designed one of the most comprehensive assessments of its kind in order to generate a statistically sound report. As a result, we have been able to conclude that Vodafone's mobile broadband network is statistically significantly faster," he commented.
The BBC recently announced that all of its programmes are to be made available online, through the iPlayer.
