How our Wireless High Speed Internet Works
Wireless high speed internet refers to the signal sent from an Access Point on a radio tower to your home or business radio, which in turn converts the signal to Ethernet and moves the signal through a cable in to your building.
Internet performance is dependant on many factors - some of the most important being: signal quality, PC quality and Peering to other major suppliers. Internet traffic is based on connections between your PC and other connected computers using a unique address, known as an IP address.
TCP/IP, the protocol, or language, of the Internet has been around since the '70s, and has become the world standard. Limitations of the computer and Internet on the far end of the connection are major limiting factors to performance (in many cases this is the true limit to performance – hundreds of people going to the same website slows it down). In general, the Internet is slower from 4 p.m. until 11 p.m. when the most users are online creating traffic.
Our infrastructure offers two fibre connections to upstream providers, helping ensure our performance and uptime are world class.
