en.Wedoany.com Reported - MTS (МТС) has deployed new telecommunications equipment in the village of Kiselevka, a suburb of Smolensk, providing residents of the "Emerald Island," "Alexandrovsky," "New Kiselev," and "Vitebsk Block" residential areas with more stable mobile internet signals. MTS representatives shared this development with CNews.

The new base stations are designed to strengthen network coverage in the suburban residential areas of Smolensk. Kiselevka village is undergoing rapid construction, with new residential complexes continuously emerging, leading to a steady increase in network load. Following this deployment, LTE coverage in the area has significantly improved, allowing Smolensk residents to use digital services, stream online videos, work remotely, and study more smoothly.

The new equipment also supports internet voice calls via VoLTE technology, enabling users to make calls while downloading content or sending messages in instant messaging apps. This feature is free for users and can be activated in phone settings.

"Kiselevka is already considered part of Smolensk. It can be said that it has its own ecosystem: schools, kindergartens, shops, and sports facilities. The area is expanding, and the population is growing, so network load is also increasing, requiring enhanced coverage. Therefore, we prioritize building new base stations in locations under development so that their residents do not experience digital discomfort," said Pavel Berezovchuk, MTS's technical director in the Smolensk region.
