Fixed Wireless

How Fixed Wireless Works

Midco Fixed Wireless Internet relies on microwave signals and antennas, but unlike satellite, your antenna won’t be pointed at the sky.

• Fixed wireless internet uses point-to-point signals, meaning the antenna we place at your business will point at Midco fiber and equipment at a nearby tall water tower, elevator or other tall structure.
• Your antenna connects to an adapter that connects to a router in your business. Midco provides and installs the antenna for you.
• You provide your own router, which connects to the power over Ethernet (PoE) adapter.
• You can plug in a wired internet connection via Ethernet to your router – and also Wi-Fi devices if you have a wireless router.
