Is 5G secure?
Absolutely. 5G masts and the network are tightly controlled by all bodies concerned. So you can rest assured that they are secure.
Do you have to pay for 5G?
No, just as with 4G and 3G, 5G is a network connection. You don't pay anything extra when you use it.
How does it work?
To use 5G you need two things:
- 5G handset
Not all handsets can connect to the 5G network. Mainly newer handsets, such as the Samsung S24 or iPhone 15, are ready for this new technology. So it's a good idea to check whether your handset is capable of connecting to a 5G network.
Tip: Do you have an iPhone? Then make sure you have installed the latest iOS update!
- 5G-network
5G is not available everywhere in Belgium yet. But BASE is investing to make it available all over Belgium.
No 5G available where you are? Then your calls and mobile internet are automatically routed via the available 4G network.
