MTS broke up mobile Internet in the historical district of Mari El
MTS has expanded the coverage of the LTE network in the Soviet district of the Republic of Mari El, where there are more than 50 monuments of history, culture and nature.

MTS engineers launched the LTE-900 range with extended range in the villages of Mikhailovka and Sredny Kadam, as well as in the villages of Kuzhmara and Verkh-Ushnur. Now more than three thousand villagers, even in hours of high loads on the network, can comfortably use the usual digital services and receive public services via the Internet without leaving for the capital of the region. Also, the updated LTE network allows you to comfortably communicate using voice calls over the Internet using VoLTE technology and simultaneously download content.
Improved communication will be noticed by numerous tourists who visit the sights of the Soviet district. The area is especially interesting for history lovers – for example, in Middle Kadam the traditional appearance of the Mari villages has been preserved, and in Upper Ushnur you can look at the object of cultural heritage – the Church of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul, which was built in 1816. Also in the area there are archaeological monuments of the Bronze Age. With improved connectivity, tourists will now be able to explore Mari El’s culture and history with greater comfort.
“We continue to expand the network and build new base stations. Using the 900 MHz band allows us to achieve the best balance between signal range and the ability to connect multiple devices. Features of the network allow the cellular signal to easily pass through obstacles and cover vast areas, so a reliable connection is maintained even in those areas of the republic that are densely covered with forests. In addition, such a network is designed for a large number of connections and is able to provide communication to local residents and travelers, says Dmitry Bobikov, director of MTS in Mari El.
Earlier, MTS strengthened the network in the village of Kuzhener, where one of the main tourist pearls of the region is located nearby - the Stone Mountain reserve.
