(iTers News) - AT&T has turned on the nation’s fastest and most reliable 4G LTE network in Twin Falls and Burley, bringing customers the latest generation of wireless network technology. 

Faster speeds. LTE technology is capable of delivering mobile Internet speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G. Customers can stream, download, upload and game faster than ever before.

Reliability. AT&T not only has the nation’s fastest 4G LTE network, but now also has the most reliable 4G LTE network. Based on our analysis of Nielsen data, AT&T has the highest success rate for delivering mobile content across nationwide 4G LTE networks.

Cool new devices. AT&T offers several LTE-compatible devices, including new AT&T 4G LTE smartphones and tablets.

Faster response time. LTE technology offers lower latency, or the processing time it takes to move data through a network, such as how long it takes to start downloading a webpage or file once you’ve sent the request. Lower latency helps to improve services like mobile gaming, two-way video calling and telemedicine.

More efficient use of spectrum. Wireless spectrum is a finite resource, and LTE uses spectrum more efficiently than other technologies, creating more space to carry data traffic and services and to deliver a better network experience.

“We continue to see demand for mobile Internet skyrocket, and our 4G LTE network in Twin Falls and Burley responds to what customers want from their mobile experience — a faster and more reliable connection on the best devices,” said Jenifer Robertson, Vice President and General Manager, AT&T-Rocky Mountain Region.

“We welcome the investment in wireless broadband at speeds as to give our residents the service and speeds they deserve to run their businesses and everyday lives,” said Senator Lee Heider, R-Twin Falls. “Our community will greatly benefit from increased investment in broadband infrastructure and embrace this investment in Southern Idaho.”

In the first half of 2013, AT&T invested nearly US$35 million in its wireless and wired networks in Idaho.
