Our WISP Wireless network is built to provide high speed wireless broadband connections to rural homes and businesses. Our Rural network offers great value and a quality service to customers in our coverage. Now as Official Rural Broadband Partners our network is about to grow and get even better.
Our network is made up of a mixture of hill based high sites that cover large areas as well as flat land wireless "micro sites" that cover smaller areas due to natural obstacles. Our network is generally a LOS (line of sight) service, meaning if the site can be seen from your home or business it is highly likely that we will be able to connect you. We also operate several smaller repeater sites to provide coverage right into the high country where other services would not be available to those farming communities. |
With on demand TV, Netflix and other services now creating significant demand these upgrades & standardized peak speeds will mean customers will get faster overall speeds across our entire network once the roll out is complete.
Coverage zones
Our wireless network allows connections to operate at a great distance from our repeater sites, typically up to 20-25km from a hill based repeater. We can provide connections outside of our coverage zones however our speed and connection reliability suffers the further your site is to our repeater. We will allow connections outside of our zone however higher grade equipment is required to meet our minimum signal and service specification, the cost for this equipment is covered by the customer.
Our rapidly growing network in Canterbury is being built to provide areas throughout the region with better broadband. Watch this space for more info on where we are building coverage next. Our current network is pictured below.

Often over the phone or even looking at maps is not enough to confirm if our service will work at your place. Because trees and other obstacles play a part in service capability our team will try and identify possible issues in the sign up process. We typically will arrange if require a service scope & if service meets our specifications, we will book an installation date and our installer will come on site & install. For more info on our installation please see our terms or contact our sales team.
