Standard Fixed-Wireless Broadband Installation
A standard Fixed-Wireless Broadband installation includes:
- All standard Fixed-Wireless Broadband hardware - the radio equipment, up to 6 metre stayed mast, up to 20 metres Ethernet cabling;
- up to 2 hours of professional installation services;
- fully configured Billion 6404VGP VoIP Ethernet WiFi router; and

If your premises requires additional installation labour or equipment beyond the above specification, then we will provide you with a detailed no-obligation quotation for these additional works during the site survey. A two year warranty applies to all components.
Easy Wireless Broadband Plan Changes

- There are no once-off charges for changing Easy Wireless broadband plans. You can request plan changes at any time via our online plan changer.

Your Agreement with Internode
When you apply for Internode Fixed-Wireless Broadband, you should be aware that you are entering an agreement with Internode.
When you sign up for a service you agree to the Internode Standard Form of Agreement and Internode Fixed-Wireless Service Schedule. These are Internode's standard terms and conditions for the Fixed-Wireless Broadband service.
The Performance of Fixed-Wireless Broadband Services
Please note that the Fixed-Wireless Broadband network design does involve a degree of contention, and it is in the nature of radio links that throughput will vary with atmospheric conditions. Hence all stated bandwidths are theoretical maximum only, and - while we will make our best endeavours - these bandwidths cannot be 100% guaranteed.
- Fixed-Wireless Broadband services have maximum speed limits that are a function of wireless technology and wireless radio cell capacity, and in particular the peak speeds do not match those available on ADSL2+ services.
- A complete description of these factors is contained in the Fixed-Wireless Broadband Performance page.
While there is a degree of inherent security in the newer Fixed-Wireless Broadband Access Points, it is always our recommendation to customers using wireless systems that it is your responsibility to protect (encrypt) your information if it is of a private, confidential or sensitive nature.
Important Information about Fixed-Wireless Broadband services
- Network boundary point - Any cabling that is required in your premises beyond the network boundary point (which is the Subscriber Data Adapter) is your cost and responsibility.
- No resale of bandwidth - Internode Broadband services provide access for personal and immediate family or business use only.
- Single location only - Internode Broadband services are designed to allow one concurrent router login on one specific physical connection (you can of course have multiple users sharing this connection). Logging in at a different physical location to the location associated with the connection may fail to work, or may incur an additional cost of $1 per connected hour.
- Dynamic IP address - A dynamic IP address is supplied by default. Select a Power Pack or a Business Pack option, if a static IP address is required. IPv6 addressing is also available if supported by your equipment - further information.
- The monthly quota allocation on Internode Fixed-Wireless Broadband services is counted as the sum of both uploads and downloads. Definitions (in accordance with Australian ISP conventions):
- 1 MB or 1 Mbyte is 1 Megabyte = 1,000,000 bytes.
- 1 GB or 1 Gbyte is 1 Gigabyte = 1,000 Megabytes.
- Quota allocation is counted in the download direction only, if you select the Power Pack or Business Pack option.
Billing & Notifications
Tax invoices, Internode Bulletins and automated data usage warning messages are sent to your Internode email address. Please refer to the configuration sheet (supplied when your service is activated) for details of your Internode email address. You can automatically forward these emails to another email address if required, via our online Email Management system.
If you have ordered hardware you will be required to pay for it by credit card before it is sent to you. As per the Internode Standard Form of Agreement, payment for all recurring charges is required monthly in advance. This means that your first invoice will have the setup fee (if applicable) and the monthly plan fees for your service for the first 2 months. Billing will begin within 7 days of the service being provisioned by our carrier, or earlier if you have registered a successful login.
No charges apply until the service is confirmed as deliverable by our carrier.
Posting of paper invoices is available but discouraged for environmental reasons, and if requested will attract a $1.50 surcharge per invoice. Surcharges also apply to payments made by credit card - full details on this and our other payment options are available here.
