RCS & RDS managed to force an increase in the quality of fixed internet in Romania, and thanks to their subscriptions, now in our country over 71% of connections have speeds of at least 100 Mbps. Everything is due to the investments made by RCS & RDS, they offered the first subscriptions with very high speeds, and metropolitan traffic, and this forced the rest of the market to adapt and catch up, and all customers benefited from this.

RCS & RDS is by far the strongest provider of fixed internet services in Romania, and although it is very strong here, on the mobile internet side things are completely the opposite for the telecommunications operator.
