How to check the Vodafone coverage of the mobile network
Let's start, therefore, with the verification of coverage of the Vodafone mobile network. If it is true that most people are interested in knowing if their phone will surf the Internet smoothly and quickly under the 4G network, the number of people who have purchased a smartphone compatible with the new standard is no longer negligible. 5G, and subscribed to one of the offers already available to connect to the Internet at maximum speed. For this reason we have chosen to divide this section into two sub-chapters, dedicating the first to the 5G network and the second to 4G technology.
5G
At the moment, the coverage of the Vodafone 5G network is limited to the largest national cities. To check if your municipality is reached by Vodafone's GigaNetwork 5G, simply connect to the page Giga Speed of the vodafone.it site, open the link Check coverage in your city and, in the new screen that opens, type your name City of residence. Now wait for the information to be displayed on the map to load: if your area is covered by Vodafone 5G, the green check will appear next to the red 5G sticker, otherwise there will be a red cross indicating the absence of the requested network.

The verification of the Vodafone coverage of the 4G network also requires the use of the tool we have already talked about above. For more convenience go directly to the page Fast Network - Giga Network coverage (click here), then type the name of the municipality where you live in the gray box located at the top left, and click on the magnifying glass to start the search. After a few seconds the system will return the result: the green tick next to the red symbol of 4G indicates that there is signal coverage, the red cross instead it corresponds to a negative result.
If the second case occurs, we suggest you repeat the search to make sure that this is really the case: if the test result is confirmed, it might be a good idea to contact a different telephone operator, for example by considering offers. TIM.
How to check Vodafone fiber coverage
