DOHA: Ooredoo yesterday announced the completion of its special project to roll out the Ooredoo Supernet across Qatar’s deserts to provide 4G and 4G+ coverage in time for camping season.
The project aims to deliver an intensive upgrade and expansion of the Supernet in desert camping areas and has involved the addition of 12 new mobile shelters and the upgrade of 53 desert sites to 4G+ services.
Ooredoo has made significant improvements to popular camping spots, including Ras Mattbakh, Al Ghareya, Al Mafjar, Al Negyan, Umm Al Zubar, Umm Bab, Umm Al Ammad, Khor El Edeid and Sealine. The upgrade took months of data-gathering, studying and planning in coordination with the Ministry of Environment to fully understand campers’ needs and assess the coverage-related limitations some people faced last camping season.
Waleed Al Sayed, Chief Operating Officer, said: “When we say the Ooredoo Supernet is designed to cover all of Qatar, we mean it. We have undertaken the challenge of connecting desert and camping areas to the Supernet, because we know how important camping is to the people of Qatar. Wherever they travel, customers can be assured of fast mobile Internet speeds and an excellent Internet experience with Ooredoo.”
