Fixed wireless broadband for business

Fast, reliable connectivity where fibre can’t reach.

What is fixed wireless

Lightwire’s fixed wireless delivers high-speed internet via radio links between Lightwire’s towers and your business premises.

With over 200 high sites across Waikato and Bay of Plenty, we provide fibre-like speeds in areas where laying fibre is impractical or cost-prohibitive.

Unlike Lightwire home fixed wireless broadband, which is designed for residential users, Lightwire business fixed wireless broadband provides service level agreements (SLAs) and prioritised business support.

For enterprises with critical data needs, Lightwire Business Licensed fixed wireless broadband offers licensed spectrum connections starting at 100 Mbps or 200 Mbps symmetrical.

Services can also be integrated into Layer 2 WAN solutions for seamless connectivity across multiple sites.

Lightwire’s fixed wireless network is monitored and optimised around the clock, ensuring consistent performance across every connection. It’s the same technology powering community projects, local councils, and critical business infrastructure.

Every fixed wireless service includes Lightwire Threat Feed Service (LTFS) protection for proactive threat detection and network security.

Case study

Fixed wireless vs satellite connectivity

Lightwire fixed wireless provides lower latency, consistent throughput, and business SLAs that satellite services like Starlink can’t match.

It’s ideal for applications that demand stable, real-time connectivity, such as VoIP, cloud services, and video conferencing.

Every installation is handled by real people - local engineers who install and maintain to enterprise standards, ensuring compliance and professional performance. When issues arise, our technicians are deployed on-site to restore service fast.

For organisations that already use or are considering Starlink, pairing it with Lightwire fixed wireless creates the ultimate redundancy strategy. Use Starlink or another satellite service as a secondary connection for added resilience and extra capacity - ensuring your business stays online even if one link goes down.

With LTFS protection, Layer 2 WAN integration, and locally managed support, you can build a resilient, secure, and high-performance network across every site.
