Free launches the fastest-ever 4G+ Box

Free has brought out a new 4G+ Box which provides easy ultra-fast Internet access for <subscribers whose wired connection is not fast enough but who receive 4G+.

Free's new plan is designed for people in non-fiber areas where landline Internet speeds are slow but the 4G+ service is good. It's a clear and straightforward plan, with the Free price tag of €29.99/month.

Ultra-fast speeds with AC 1300 WiFi

The combination of Free's 4G+ network and the AC 1300 WiFi integrated in the Box gives subscribers ultra-fast speeds of up to 320 Mbps for connecting their devices. Which makes it the fastest-ever 4G+ Box.

The new Box receives the signal from Free's 4G/4G+ network which offers ultra-fast speeds. Free's 4G network covers over 93% of the French population. Free is continuing to extend its network across France, notably by deploying 700 MHz frequencies, so as to offer the fastest speeds to as many people as possible.
