It is noted that independent connection to pilot zones is not yet available for a wide range of MTS subscribers. The selection of the participants in the pilot project will be carried out automatically on the basis of an impersonal analysis of data on their movement, proximity to the pilot zones, the profile of service consumption and Internet traffic.
Such subscribers will receive an SMS inviting them to connect to the pilot network with the “Access to 5G” option. Data transmission in the pilot network is not charged, is not limited in volume and speed, including when using a smartphone as a Wi-Fi access point and working in file-sharing networks.
