Wireless nbn^® for Regional Business

Fixed Wireless nbn® is a broadband connection technology that transmits data between a roof-mounted antenna at your premises and a nearby nbn® tower. It is the primary nbn® solution for regional and rural businesses located in areas where fibre-based connections are not available, providing fast and reliable internet without the need for physical cabling to your premises.

A roof-mounted outdoor antenna installed at your premises connects wirelessly to a local nbn® tower, which in turn links to the broader nbn® network via fibre backhaul. This wireless connection delivers broadband internet to your premises just like a standard cabled service, with the signal travelling through the air rather than through a physical cable.

Absolutely. Fixed Wireless nbn® is well suited to small businesses, home offices, and regional operations of all sizes. UCOM's Fixed Wireless plans are business-grade, including a static IP address, unlimited data, and 24/7 Australian-based support as standard, giving regional businesses the same level of service as their city counterparts.

UCOM offers Fixed Wireless nbn® plans ranging from 25/5 Mbps on the Wireless Starter plan up to 400/40 Mbps on the Wireless Superfast plan. Thanks to recent network upgrades by nbn® Co, Fixed Wireless speeds are now faster than ever, with the Wireless Superfast plan achieving typical business hours download speeds of around 380 Mbps.

The right plan depends on the number of staff using the connection at the same time and the types of tasks being performed. The Wireless Starter and Wireless Plus plans suit smaller teams handling general web browsing and file sharing, while the Wireless Fast and Wireless Superfast plans are better suited to businesses with heavier usage such as video streaming, video calling, and cloud-based applications. Our team is happy to help you choose the right plan for your needs.

A roof-mounted outdoor antenna is required to receive the Fixed Wireless signal. This is installed by an nbn® technician as part of your connection. You will also need a compatible router to distribute the connection throughout your premises. UCOM can supply a suitable business-grade router, or you are welcome to use your own compatible device. Please note that the router must have a Gigabit WAN port in order to work with your Fixed Wireless nbn® service.

In most cases, Fixed Wireless nbn® is reliable in a wide range of weather conditions. However, as with any wireless technology, severe weather or physical obstructions between your premises and the nbn® tower can occasionally impact performance. We recommend adding 4G failover to your plan for complete peace of mind during any outages.

4G failover is a backup internet connection that automatically switches on if your Fixed Wireless nbn® service experiences an outage or disruption. For regional businesses where connectivity is critical to daily operations, 4G failover provides an essential safety net. UCOM offers 4G failover with a new WiFi router from just $5 per month, added to any Fixed Wireless nbn® plan.

When your business connects to the internet, it is assigned an IP address, a unique numerical label that identifies your connection on the network. A static IP address is permanently assigned to your service and never changes, making it possible for external systems to reliably locate and connect to your network at any time. This is critical for businesses that use remote desktop tools, VPNs, hosted servers, or security systems that require a consistent, unchanging address to function properly.

Yes, all UCOM Fixed Wireless nbn® plans include a static IP address as standard (opt-in). A static IP is essential for businesses that rely on remote desktop access, VPN connections and server hosting.

No, all UCOM Fixed Wireless nbn® plans include unlimited data, so your team can work, stream, and communicate without worrying about usage limits or excess charges.

No, UCOM Fixed Wireless nbn® plans are available with no lock-in contract, giving your business the flexibility to adjust or change plans as your needs evolve.
