2G
2G is a legacy mobile network generation sometimes used by older connected devices and chargers. It is normally considered alongside site connectivity, router/modem configuration, signal availability and ongoing remote support.
3G
3G is a third-generation mobile network technology that was historically used by some EV charge points and cellular modems for backend communication. In the UK it should now be treated as a retired legacy technology, with major operators having switched off or decommissioned 3G service and new deployments expected to use 4G, 5G or fixed connectivity.
4G
4G is a mobile network generation commonly used for EV charger cellular data connectivity. It is normally considered alongside site connectivity, router/modem configuration, signal availability and ongoing remote support.
5G
5G is a newer mobile network generation offering higher potential capacity and lower latency than previous mobile technologies. It is normally considered alongside site connectivity, router/modem configuration, signal availability and ongoing remote support.
