Comment on Millions of smart meters will fail when 2G and 3G turns off
zaphod@feddit.de 8 months agoHow would those microcells be legal? It’s not just that 3G or whatever gets shut down, the frequencies are usually reallocated to something else so you can’t legally operate a 3G network on those frequencies anymore.

It would depend how regulations are written. It’s perfectly conceivable that these can be allowed to operate using a very low power level that wouldn’t interfere with the larger network, especially if the use case is for things like substations that are already isolated.
