Rural Wireless Broadband
Rural wireless internet offers an affordable solution in areas where traditional broadband options aren't available. It works by transmitting signals from fixed wireless towers to nearby properties within range. With speeds fast enough for everyday online tasks and smooth streaming, our service connects you where you need it most with support for multiple devices.
We operate our own rural wireless networks in the Eastern Bay of Plenty and South Westland. As a line-of-sight service, only homes within our coverage area, typically those with a clear view of one of our towers, are eligible for connection. In Tolaga Bay, we provide services through the Gisborne.net network.

Get your install sorted

A $295 one-off install fee is required for new Rural Wireless connections. This includes a technician visit, antenna, router and cabling. A payment plan option is also available when you sign up.

Please allow a 2-week lead time for installs, as our technicians need to schedule around weekday availability, weather conditions, and travel logistics.

If your installation requires any extra work beyond the standard setup, we'll confirm any additional costs in advance.

For a smoother installation, we recommend using a surge protector multi-plug with sufficient cable length to ensure safe and flexible placement of your equipment. This helps protect your router from power surges and ensures an optimal setup.
