What has Swoop been up to in Geelong?

Launch of Smart Cities and Suburbs program

Swoop proudly partnered with Geelong City Council and ENE.HUB to launch the Smart Cities and Suburbs project which sees Swoop providing free WI-FI services across communities in Geelong.

The project had been in the works for several years and has seen Swoop deliver an enhanced broadband trial that aims to support business growth and innovation in Geelong’s North, while additional Wi-Fi locations have been delivered across Central Geelong, the Kardinia Park Precinct and Northern suburbs including Corio and Norlane.

Swoop Chief Technology Officer, Tom Berryman was present for the launch and looks forward to seeing the community thrive through connectivity.

“We’re excited about our partnership with the Geelong City Council and ENE.HUB for the ‘Smart Cities and Suburbs Program’ as we work towards a shared vision of connecting people with services.

Our 60Ghz (mmWave) ‘Enhanced Broadband’ solutions offer customers true gigabit capability, delivered quicker than legacy services. Swoop plans to deploy our mmWave platform across cities and surrounding areas through 2022 and into 2023.”

    We have all your questions answered!

    What is Fixed Wireless?

    Swoop Fixed Wireless is a game changer. It’s fast, reliable and built to last! Swoop Fixed Wireless is our next generation internet service that offers high speeds, reliability and great value, all on our privately owned and operated network.

    How does line of sight (LOS) work for Fixed Wireless?

    Fixed wireless needs an uninterrupted view, or line of sight (LOS), from tower to antenna. We make sure you have the best broadband service by checking LOS while we install your service. Of course, LOS can change over time when trees grow or new buildings go up. Our support team are on hand to help if you have any problems with your service and can determine if we need to send a technician to your place to check for these obstacles.

    What are some advantages of Fixed Wireless?

    Fixed Wireless is fast, and reliable compared to traditional connection types.

    Households use their connections in entirely different ways now compared to 10, even 3 years ago. The rise of Netflix, the ubiquity of portable internet-enabled devices, the move to VoIP and away from copper landline services… these are all part of the ever-changing internet landscape.

    Fixed Wireless is based on technology developed specifically to support modern internet use and habits, and the key attributes are the speed and stability of the service. The internet is no longer a hobby that we indulge in during downtime–it’s part of the fabric of our everyday lives, we need connections we can rely upon, and the speeds to handle anything and everything we want to do with the connections.

    Why choose the Swoop Fixed Wireless network?

    Our Swoop Fixed Wireless network is the high-speed alternative to conventional household fixed-line internet, such as nbn™. Traditionally, your internet will be delivered to your home through cables in the ground, and these cables can be old, worn out, and expensive to fix.

    With Fixed Wireless, Swoop bypasses these ageing copper networks by installing an antenna at your home or business which talks wirelessly to one of our communications towers, which can be located up to 30km away. No phone line and no nbn™ required! Simply plug your router into the professionally installed data point in your wall and prepare for life in the fast lane.

    How is Fixed Wireless different form other connection types?

    Fixed Wireless is today’s technology, built and supported by a local team.

    Swoop Fixed Wireless is purpose-built. Legacy issues that come from stacking new uses onto infrastructure that was never designed to handle it are eliminated with Fixed Wireless, which is an entirely new evolution in technology, new infrastructure and supported by all-new systems.

    The reliability of Fixed Wireless is further enhanced by a dedicated support team. The emphasis is on solutions that work for the long-term, and with their in-depth knowledge of the network they built, our local support technicians have every advantage over other networks that are serviced by out-of-area subcontractors.

    Am I locked into a contract?

    No.

    We’re so confident in our service, we don’t want you to feel locked down by contracts.

    Don’t just take our word for it, this is what our customers say!
