4G is a technology that enables us to achieve higher speed of Internet on a device, such as a computer, tablet or cell phone through a PC card, dongle or a SIM card. The SETAR 4G network is based on the HSPA+ technology which allows us to modulate the signal in another way and make more efficient use of the frequency. The wireless world is in a huge process of change from a system that formerly carried mainly voice traffic to one that now more and more will be focused on data applications. Back to top.

What is the maximum speed that SETAR 4G can achieve?
SETAR bases itself on a HSPA+ network which will give you a maximum speed of 21 Mbps. This refers to peak download speed. Actual speed may vary based on device, location and environmental conditions, network congestion and other factors. Back to top.
For SETAR all devices that can handle speeds of 14.4 Mbps or more of data is 4G, for example a smartphone, tablet or dongle which maybe HSDPA or HSPA+ and that can reach a maximum speed of 14.4 Mbps or higher. Back to top.
Not only because we have the faster and most reliable 4G network, but we are the only carrier offering 4G smartphones & tablets. Since our 4G network is all over Aruba, you can experience the full power of our 4G data speeds when you're on the go. Plus many of our 3G devices get a speed boost. Which is something the other carriers don't do for their customers. Back to top.
Will I be able to notice the change in speed when I have a 4G cellphone? Or will I see a 4G sign appear on my screen?
For customers to be able to see the difference in speed they have to apply for the Surf & Mail Advanced Plans, either SurfHigh or SurfSuper. Currently the speed for downloading is up to 14.4 Mbps for SurfHigh and up to 21Mbps for SurfSuper. Customers who have a 4G cellphone will not be able to see a 4G sign like on the 3G screens. What the customer will see is the letter H which stands for HSPA+. Back to top.
