What makes 4G the best broadband solution for remote and rural areas?

4G is the name given to frequencies used by mobile networks to transmit data over phone masts. It’s what today's smartphones use to give you internet access when you're out and about, with no reliance on any cables or wires.

But with the right equipment, 4G can also be used to provide speedy and reliable broadband to a single fixed location, like your home or business.

The perfect alternative broadband solution. Almost anywhere. Within days.

That's why 4G is the ideal broadband alternative for properties where fibre-based connectivity either doesn't reach or doesn't perform.

And best of all, 4G broadband can be supplied pretty much anywhere and pretty much instantly within the entire UK.


Connecting you to 4G

Internet

All 4G masts on the UK's mobile networks are directly connected to the Internet. Given the ever-growing availability of 4G, there's almost bound to be a mast near where you live or work.

4G Mast

4G masts broadcast Internet connectivity without relying on phone lines - to nearby 4G enabled devices. Not just to smartphones and tablets, but also to the 4G router which we'll supply.

Your Property

If needed, we'll fit an external 4G antenna to the outside of your property. This latches onto an available 4G signal, amplifies it and pipes it down to your router, bringing you speedy broadband.


Learn more about the equipment we use

If your property is in an area with good 4G coverage, then all you'll need is our top spec 4G router to get started and see just how fast 4G broadband is.

And even if the strength and quality of the 4G signal that you get where you're located isn't reliable and needs boosting, we've still got a solution for you with our high gain external 4G antenna.

If you'd like to learn more about the equipment we provide, including our external 4G antenna installation option which helps deliver fast 4G broadband to properties in weaker 4G coverage areas, you'll find further useful information here.
