Trai will issue a consultation paper to specify the average data speed of mobile broadband
Following complaints from consumers on poor broadband speeds over mobile internet networks, Trai has issued a consultation paper exploring the option of making telecom service providers specify a minimum broadband speed for internet access on mobile devices. Telecom service providers had retaliated that it was impossible to assure consumers of a minimum speed, because of the way mobile broadband works. Although the application aggregates speed information for service providers in various locations, the send to Trai button in the app is not a direct complaint against the quality of service offered by the service provider. Trai will issue a consultation paper to begin the process of regulating the average speed provided by mobile broadband service providers, within a month according to a report in the Economic Times.
