Not long ago internet access was confined to “plugging in” at our homes, offices and in hotel rooms. We can now log on to the internet at “wireless hotspots” located in local coffee shops, hotels or sandwich shops. The number of these Wi-Fi locations are growing rapidly.

Most people are only familiar with wireless internet access through “hotspots” or wireless access points located in their homes or business locations.

The concept of high capacity, and high speed internet connectivity also known as “fixed wireless” remains largely unknown. Fixed wireless however is perhaps the fastest growing sector of a high capacity, highly reliable way to connect to the internet.

The vast majority of us are familiar with “dial up” internet access and the limitations on speed. Today’s business and residential customers expect at the very minimum DSL connection speeds with business customers demanding substantially more.

“Businesses are finding that in many cases their ability to grow is being stymied by their inability to obtain cost effective internet access with enough capacity to meet their growing needs.”

The main reason for the lack of infrastructure available through the local phone and cable companies are the prohibitively high costs of upgrading there networks. "Simply put they will always be based on wired technology".

These are currently the primary methods that high-speed or Broadband Internet service can be delivered to your home or business:

1. Fiber Optic Cable
2. Coaxial Cable
3. Phone lines (DSL and Dedicated (T-1) Access)
4. Satellite  
5. Fixed Wireless
