Now that you know what 4G means, let us dive into the different Airtel 4G data plans available. We will also answer a few frequently asked questions in this post.
Airtel 4G Data Plans, Prices & Codes
Airtel began delivering 4G services to its customers to ensure that they enjoy faster internet speeds. The aim was initially to provide special data plans designed for routers specifically so that users can enjoy superfast internet. To enjoy this service, you must be in a location that has 4G internet coverage.
All the bundles under this data category are locked onto Airtel Routers that are on the 4G network. As such, you cannot use this data outside of the 4G coverage areas.
