How does Round Top WiFi work?
Round Top WiFi provides fixed point wireless service where a small antenna is attached to the outside of your home/business which is pointed to our equipment on a nearby cell tower that securely connects you directly to the internet. From the outside radio, we run a cable into your home and connect to a wireless router. This allows you to connect your wired and wireless devices to the Internet, so everyone in your home can be online. We also secure (encrypt) the wireless router so others can’t access your internet.
What can I do with Round Top WiFi's service?
You can surf the internet with no down times, video chat/Skype with family & friends, stream TV/Movies with Netflix/Hulu/Apple TV/YouTube, etc., with no worries about data limits or overage charges.
Is Round Top WiFi wireless Internet as reliable as DSL Internet?
Yes! Our wireless internet is very reliable and our network is monitored 24/7. Because our equipment has the latest technology to enable strong signal, we are able to offer better signal strength and better reliability. Also, unlike satellite, which can lose signal during heavy rain, weather will not affect the wireless signal. However, because your internet requires electricity to operate, losing power will affect your internet. We recommend that all electronic devices be plugged into a surge protector to help prevent damage due to an electrical surge.
Does Round Top WiFi provide the router needed to connect to WiFi?
Yes! The router is provider with our installation package and includes WiFi to connect all your devices and comes with a lifetime warranty and replacement. The customer can also provide their own router and our technician would be glad to configure it for you while onsite. Broadband routers can be purchased at any electronic store, including Best Buy and Walmart. Common brands are Netgear, TP-Link, Linksys and D-Link.
