Wireless Bridges Broadband service
allows customers to access the Internet without the use of cable or
telephone lines. Our service is a radio-based point-to-multipoint
connection. We place a small antenna and Customer Premise Equipment (CPE)
box outside your home or business. The data usually sent and received
from your computer over an ISDN or ADSL connection is instead carried
over radio frequencies to our tower. It is then transmitted to your
Internet Service Provider (ISP).
What is installed when can I get service?
After the site survey is completed, we will install an Customer Premise
Equipment (CPE Radio-antenna) at your location (this typically goes
under the eave of the house, or in some other inconspicuous place) -
this is the device that receives the high-speed signal. A 6-foot pole
typically holds up the antenna. CAT-5 Ethernet cable will be run from
the CPE, down the side of your house, and to your computer. This cable
cannot exceed 100 meters.
How can I tell if Wireless Bridges service is available where I live?
Submit an order. Our technician will determine if a viable signal is
available at your location. If a signal is obtained, you will be
installed within 7 - 10 working days. If you have further questions,
please call our sales team. We have coverage maps online for
those who are interested, but the only way to really determine if you
have service is to submit an order, and have a site survey done.
How long does it take to get service?
Typically, our customers receive an appointment within 10 business days
from order submittal.
What Is the Cost
for Wireless Bridges Broadband Service?
Wireless Bridges Broadband is priced competitively with Residential and
Commercial, but with no hidden charges or fees. You do need to purchase
the antenna and the (CPE) box,
How secure is wireless?
Wireless Broadband utilizes spread spectrum technology originally
designed for secure military communications. The Customer Premise
Equipment (CPE) includes NAT firewalling, which will keep your Internet
connection more secure. Additionally, Mac layer 2 filtering prevents
anyone from eavesdropping on data transmissions. Some of these security
features preclude the use of some applications. For details on these
applications, for more details please ask customer services team. |
