2degrees Christchurch Network Restored

The 2degrees Christchurch network has been restored and the company is meeting the needs of its customers.

Chief Executive Eric Hertz says service is now available throughout the city.

“Our network in Christchurch is operating, including full 2G and 3G services, and we’re meeting the needs of our customers,” he says.

“We’re not experiencing any network congestion and we’re dealing with traffic well,” says Mr Hertz.

The company has sufficient back-­up power supplies and is deploying COWs (Cell Sites on Wheels) to provide even stronger coverage to some areas of the city.
