Vodafone is changing TV frequencies – you have to be aware of that

Kris Wallburg

Vodafone changes the frequencies of up to 350 TV and radio stations in the cable network. The frequency spectrum, which was previously used differently in different regions, is to be standardized across Germany. Vodafone expects more performance and higher data rates in the cable network. The conversion is to be carried out in stages and completed by mid-2023.

Vodafone customers have to take this into account

Ideally, the customer should not notice anything about the changeover. After changing the frequency, the TV receiver must be searched. According to Vodafone, this is carried out automatically in many cases, mainly with Vodafone’s own end devices. With older devices, the user may have to initiate the channel search himself. Vodafone explains how this works on this support page.

Vodafone recommends its customers not to disconnect their receivers and cable routers from the power supply at the time of the changeover and to check in the morning after the changeover whether all channels can be received as before.

Frequency change: These dates are already known

Vodafone will roll out the changes over the next few months. You can check when your place of residence is affected on this website. Nuremberg will start on August 29th. The following is an excerpt of the changeover dates:
