에스토니아 커버리지

에스토니아 수치가 뜻하는 것

중요한 숫자는 두 개인데, 모든 판매사가 인용하는 건 그중 하나뿐입니다. 일반적인 속도는 95 Mbps입니다. 상태가 좋을 때가 어느 정도인지 알려주는 숫자입니다.

읽을 값어치가 있는 건 10분위, 30 Mbps 쪽입니다. 역 위 기지국이 가득 차고 주변 사람들이 모두 같은 전파에 붙어 있는, 하루 중 아래쪽 10퍼센트일 때의 속도입니다. 중앙값이 높고 바닥이 낮은 나라는 정작 필요한 그 순간까지만 훌륭하게 작동하는 나라입니다.

영상 통화나 테더링이 꼭 필요한 여행이라면 일반 속도가 아니라 혼잡 시 수치를 기준으로 계획하세요.

에스토니아에서 망이 붐빌 때 벌어지는 일

혼잡은 고장이 아니라 화요일 저녁입니다. 문제는 그때 eSIM이 무엇을 할 수 있느냐인데, 대부분의 여행용 eSIM은 할 수 있는 게 없습니다. 나라마다 도매 계약 하나, 망 하나, 길에 선 채로 다른 회사 eSIM을 한 장 더 사는 것 말고는 빠져나갈 방법이 없습니다.

여기서 Orbislo 트래픽은 Telia 및 Elisa를 지납니다. 지금 쓰는 망이 나빠지면 여행 도중이라도, 요청하지 않아도 다른 망으로 옮깁니다. 그 순간에 방해하는 대신 옮기고 나서 알려드립니다.

에스토니아의 이동통신사

• Telia Eesti: Telia opened Estonia's first public 5G on 11 November 2020, on a handful of streets in Tallinn, Tartu and Pärnu for a few thousand customers, using its existing frequencies before any 5G auction had taken place.
• Telia Eesti: Telia has said it will not start closing its 2G network before 2029. 2G still carries a small share of voice calls and serves card terminals, meters, alarms and cars, while more than 80 percent of Telia's mobile calls already run over 4G.
• Elisa Eesti: To prepare for its 3G switch-off, Elisa added more than 250 new 2G base stations across Estonia and moved most customers onto VoLTE, so older phones keep voice service on 2G while data needs a 4G or 5G device.
• Telia, Elisa, Tele2, STV: The regulator classes four communications companies as providers of vital services: Tele2, Elisa, STV and Telia. In 2025 it recorded nine significant incidents disrupting call or internet services, but no complete communications outage.

• Telia switched off 3G county by county through 2023, starting in Läänemaa in March and ending in Tartu County on 20 November and Tartu city on 21 November. Its 2G network stayed on for calls from phones without VoLTE.
• Elisa began closing 3G in Rapla County in May 2024 and finished on 25 November 2024 in Tallinn and Harju County. Customers kept 2G, 4G and 5G.
• Tele2 was the last Estonian operator to close 3G. After starting in Rakvere in February 2025, it switched off Rapla, Järva, Jõgeva, Viljandi, Lääne-Viru and Ida-Viru counties on 6 November and Tartu, Valga, Põlva, Võru, Narva and the Peipus shore on 20 November 2025.
• With 3G gone on all three networks, phones without VoLTE can still make calls over 2G, but old USB modems and routers that only support 3G have to be replaced. Tele2 advises checking that VoLTE is switched on in phone settings.

에스토니아의 5G

• Estonia auctioned three 3410 to 3800 MHz licences in 2022. Elisa won the first on 27 May for 7,206,208 euros, Telia the second on 15 July for 8,500,300 euros, and Tele2 the third unopposed for 1,597,000 euros.
• Each 3.5 GHz licence required a 5G service on at least 3GPP Release 15 within a year, and at least 200 active base stations within two years, no more than 100 of them in Harju County and at least five in every county.
• In the 700 MHz auction that began on 8 November 2022, Elisa, Tele2 and Telia each won two 2x5 MHz licences. Holders must reach 50 percent coverage in each county within two years and 95 percent within four.
• Ida-Viru, Jõgeva, Tartu, Põlva and Võru counties are exempt from the 95 percent 700 MHz target because Russian television broadcasting limits how the band can be used there, so low-band 5G in south-east and north-east Estonia can be thinner.
• Telia launched Estonia's first standalone 5G, branded 5G+, on 8 April 2026 with 5G voice calling (VoNR). At launch only a handful of devices could use it, including the Xiaomi 15T Pro and Nothing Phone 4a models.
• Since 2022 any operator running 5G non-standalone or newer, or providing a vital service, must get a permit from the regulator for the hardware and software in its network, a check that the equipment does not threaten national security.

에스토니아 네트워크 참고 사항

• A 2025 consultation found 93 stretches along nine main highways and three railway lines, about 412 km in total, where 5G needs improving. The state has earmarked 18.72 million euros of EU regional funds to build masts along these corridors.
• In the last days of 2025, faults hit four subsea cables linking Estonia to Sweden and Finland and one to Hiiumaa island. A ship with its anchor chain in the water was detained by Finland, yet end users saw no noticeable impact and international links kept working.
• On 25 December 2024 three subsea cables between Estonia and Finland were damaged, two of them owned by Elisa and one by CITIC Telecom. All services and links between the two countries kept working, with no noticeable effect on users.
• Globalstar runs a satellite ground station at Kilingi-Nõmme in south-west Estonia, one of four in Europe relaying Apple's emergency SOS messages, and began expanding it in 2025.
• Close to 2 million SIM holders used mobile service in Estonia at the end of 2025, and about 96,000 customers, 13 percent of internet users, relied on 4G or 5G fixed wireless as their home connection.
• A spot check at the end of 2024 found operators meeting their 5G licence terms. For some operators the 700 MHz coverage maps matched field measurements more than 95 percent of the time, and 3.5 GHz base station counts matched licence conditions.
• Global Connect plans a new cable ring linking Finland, Estonia and Sweden, with 250 km of fibre across Estonian land and 1,250 km laid at sea. The 40 million euro project is due for completion in 2027.
