Air Broadband Limited

Información generál

We are a rural Internet Service Provider, based around Ely and Cambridge in East Anglia.

We have a series of high powered wireless transmitters on masts in the area – these use a much higher powered form of wireless transmission (802.11N, running at 5Ghz) which has a range of around 20 miles – much further than a home ‘wifi’ network.

We install a two way aerial on your house – it’s about 30 cm by 10 cm in size – and this gives you superfast broadband straight into your existing router. If you don’t have a suitable router already, we can supply one for you.

As well as having fantastic fast download (up to 80Mbps is possible), the upload speed is also significantly faster (usually below 10Mbps) than conventional broadband. Latency (ping) is also very low, at <25milliseconds, perfect for gaming, Skype and video conferencing.

The backbone of our entire network is fibre-optic cable, at speeds of up to 1Gb/second to our masts.

And because we don’t use your existing phone line, you don’t have to pay any line rental charges (usually around £18/month) on top of your broadband fees. Of course, we can also provide you with a Voice over Internet phone – we can even keep your old phone number!
