Antenna ( points at one of our internet access points )
Antenna Mounting Brackets ( Used for securing your antenna to a roofline or existing tower )

How Fast is a Wireless Connection ? |
---|
A wireless internet connection's speed depends weather conditions, tower line of sight in your area, and software using the network on your computer ( which could be a virus or SpyWare). A connection can range from your standard dsl and cable internet bundle/lite of 768k on up to 25megs. Business connections carry different speeds.
What does the equipment look like ? |
---|
The technology of this equipment changes quickly as you can imagine
Antennas:
Range in sizes from a palm sized antenna to a 24" grilled directional unit. They are all lightweight and are no more difficult to install than a digital satellite dish.
Cables:
Our outdoor wireless equipment has Ethernet network cabling connected to it which is a very small diameter. This places the radio at the antenna, little to no loss of signal through other cabling and requires no software drivers to be loaded on your computer.
Do I need a phone line ? |
---|
NO! a phone line is not needed. If you have a second phone line you can actually save money and get a faster speed connection by going wireless and canceling your second phone line. Even more money can be saved by going to a MagicJack or some sort of other voip phone service.
