Vodafone, one of the largest telecommunications operators in Romania, supported its customers in the midst of the Coronavirus pandemic, also offering them a series of benefits to help them bear the isolation more easily. Among them were many that are related to television, some that are related to mobile telecommunications services, and the other day the company also revealed some interesting information about what the world is doing at home.

Vodafone reveals the fact that after the imposition of the state of emergency, the upload made by Romanian customers on mobile phones increased by 15%, in the case of its fixed network, it increased by 50%. This is normal because people have started making more and more video calls, or video conferences if they are still working, and this is where the substantial increase in upload traffic comes from, because a lot of bandwidth is needed to use these services.

Vodafone he also says that many of his clients use the Internet to learn, to do their lessons, or to visit online museums that have shared pictures of their current collections. Vodafone also says that the traffic generated by people playing games on computers or mobile phones has increased a lot, but also that generated by people watching movies, which a lot of people have done in the last month .

Vodafone says that after 21:00 the most people are active online lately, which is somewhat easy to understand since many are still working and are busy with work during the day. After 21:00 people have time to relax, at least according to Vodafone, and this generates the highest download or upload traffic through the fixed and mobile networks that the operator currently has in our whole country.

Vodafone has almost 10 million customers in Romania after completing the purchase of the UPC company, and the number will increase because now it can offer complete services for all these people.
