We've found 1534 providers offering Fixed Wireless service in the US. Below are stats on their coverage and speeds.
Fixed Wireless Internet is a fast-growing Internet service that uses stationary wireless access points to “beam” connectivity directly to consumer households. While it doesn’t use a physical wire like Fiber or Cable, it is often able to achieve similar speeds anywhere from 10–1,000 Mbps.
Fixed Wireless providers are often significantly smaller than the large Cable and DSL corporations. They are commonly started by local residents who are frustrated by slow speeds or limited service in their area.
In many cases, the local Fixed Wireless Broadband provider will lease a Fiber line from a larger provider and essentially resell service over their own last-mile infrastructure.
The main challenge for getting Fixed Wireless service is that the customer has to have line-of-site with the tower or roof that is broadcasting connectivity nearest to them. This means customers will need to have roof access, or be close enough to get it through a window.
