FIXED WIRELESS OPTIONS
Available speeds and service options depend on the Layer 3 wireless network serving your location, signal conditions and installation requirements.
Available Fixed Wireless packages will appear here based on location, network availability and Layer 3 commercial options.
WIRELESS, BUT BUILT FOR A FIXED LOCATION
Layer 3 checks whether suitable wireless infrastructure serves the location.
Signal path, mounting position and installation requirements may need to be assessed.
A fixed wireless device or antenna connects the property to the Layer 3 or supported wireless network.
The connection feeds into the customer's router or network for normal home or business use. Installation details vary by location and service design.
WIRELESS INTERNET FOR HOME
Fixed Wireless can support everyday connected home activities where suitable coverage, signal conditions and service options are available. Actual experience depends on the selected service and local conditions.
BUSINESS CONNECTIVITY
Fixed Wireless gives businesses another way to connect locations where Fibre is unavailable, delayed or impractical, subject to a coverage and installation assessment.
KEEP A SECOND PATH
Where technically suitable, a Fixed Wireless connection can provide an independent backup path alongside Fibre or another primary connection. Failover behaviour and availability depend on the final network design.
Keep an alternative access technology available if the primary connection becomes unavailable.
Layer 3 can design connectivity around more than one access technology.
Suitable for businesses where connectivity interruptions have operational consequences.
MORE THAN CONNECTIVITY
These services are optional pathways and are not automatically included with every Fixed Wireless package.
DNS-layer protection options can help reduce access to known malicious destinations.

THE RIGHT CONNECTION FOR THE RIGHT LOCATION
Fixed-location connectivity where Fibre infrastructure does not currently reach.
Wireless can often be deployed without waiting for Fibre civil construction.
Useful where a new branch or site requires connectivity quickly.
Add access diversity rather than relying entirely on one physical network.
Where suitable wireless coverage exists, Fixed Wireless can serve locations that are difficult to reach with traditional fixed infrastructure.

Explore LTE & 5GFIXED WIRELESS QUESTIONS
Fixed customer equipment and wireless infrastructure provide internet connectivity to a specific location.
No. LTE and 5G generally use mobile-network infrastructure, while Fixed Wireless uses fixed wireless infrastructure designed to serve a particular location.
Start with a coverage check. A site assessment may then confirm signal path, mounting and installation requirements.
Many installations use externally mounted customer equipment, but final equipment depends on the service design and local conditions.
Yes, subject to availability, installation feasibility and the requirements of the business location.
Where technically suitable, it can form part of a redundancy design, although failover behaviour is not guaranteed without an appropriate network configuration.
Layer 3 works through supported wireless infrastructure nationally, but availability remains specific to each location.
