EE, a mobile network operator and internet service provider with HQ in Hatfield, England, plans to upgrade its London network using LTE-A technology to support data speeds of up to 300 Mbps, Telecompaper has reported, quoting The Register.

The CEO of EE, Olaf Swantee, in an interview with Mobile World Live, a news site of the trade body GSMA, said that his company would deploy LTE-A technology initially in South London, before expanding it to the entire M25 region, and insisted that voice was still important to EE, and that it was putting 279 million pounds ($46 6 million) into a 2G–equipment improvement.
