Fixed-wireless internet gets your home online without cable, fiber, or a phone line. If you’ve never used it before, here’s a plain-English look at how it works and why it’s a strong fit for rural homes.
The short version
A small router in your home connects to nearby cell towers over 5G or LTE — the same kind of signal your phone uses. The router then shares that connection with your devices over Wi-Fi or ethernet cables.
Why “fixed”?
Unlike your phone, the router stays in one spot. That lets it settle on the best available signal and deliver a steady home connection for streaming, video calls, and gaming.
What you need
• A DRB hardware kit with a pre-configured Wi-Fi 6 router
• A power outlet, ideally near a window
• Coverage at your address — you can check in a few seconds
How fast is it?
DRB Premium delivers up to 200 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload. DRB Extreme delivers up to 500 Mbps download and 50 Mbps upload, with priority network access during busy times. Actual speeds depend on your location and network conditions.
What about weak signal?
Router placement makes a big difference — near a window and up high is best. For homes with weaker signal, the DRB Elite kit supports an external antenna.
No technician required
Your router arrives ready to go. Plug it in, connect your devices, and most homes are online in about 5 minutes. If it isn’t the right fit, every kit includes a 14-day money-back guarantee.
