Icelandic report declares 2G and 3G network shutdowns largely successful

Icelandic telecoms regulator Fjarskiptastofa has published a report on the shutdown of Iceland’s 2G and 3G mobile networks and the effects on users, services and the country’s telecommunications infrastructure. It finds that the closures have been largely successful and that the migration of services to 4G and 5G networks has been achieved without significant impact on the vast majority of users. It also covers problems that arose with certain mobile phones and their access to the emergency number 112.
