The maximum speed in september was increased from 300 to 450 Kbps, said NS spokesman Erik Kroeze Monday against Telecompaper. Because the rail together, one connection need to share, is the praktijksnelheid usually even lower.
Exact figures on the wifigebruik indicates the spokesman. So it is unclear how many people daily use of the treinwifi.
Since the first Dutch train was equipped with wi-fi, in 2010,, there is a lot to complain about the quality of the connection. According to Kroeze, people are slowly more positive about the wi-fi quality, but “unfortunately, the sentiment is still more negative than positive.”
“That is partly explained by the fact that in the train of the same quality as is expected home,” he says. “Our commitment is to ensure that people can work in the train, browsing, e-mail and use of social media. Use of video is unfortunately not in, because we need to connect to distribute it to passengers”
4G
as of 2015, the wi-fi connectivity in trains to use the 4G network of T-Mobile. This allows higher speeds to be achieved than on the older 3G network, that was previously used. In the past few years the 4G coverage is also improved, giving passengers in more places can access the internet.
The NS calls upon travelers to be on the official serviceforum their experiences with the treinwifi to share, so the company can identify on which routes there are still any problems.
