Goodbye 3G, hello 4G

3G Network Switch-Off

3G Devices Need Upgrading Now

One NZ is turning off the 3G network by 31 December 2025.

Everything that relies on a cellular connection – from mobile phones to telematics – must upgrade to 4G or 5G to avoid losing service.

For those managing vehicle and driver safety and compliance via EROAD for Road User Charges and Logbook, your compliance is at risk if your devices lose connectivity.

Time is running out to keep your vehicles connected, and compliant.

There’s no ‘flick of the switch’ – 3G service to degrade BEFORE 31 December

3G network assets are being degraded. Some may be turned off sooner, meaning 3G ‘black spots’ could grow before the 31 December deadline. Don’t leave your fleet out of range.

Choose a convenient time to upgrade

Once you’ve confirmed your upgrade with EROAD, you can work with an installer to find a convenient time. Waiting until the last minute when installers are fully booked with last-minute demand could lead to frustrating wait times and low availability.
