Fixed wireless broadband is a method of delivering high speed data utilizing a Fixed Wi-Fi connection between two fixed points. Airway Broadband owns and operates the largest independent wireless broadband network in the Gwalior. Airway Broadband eliminates the Wireless Internet Service Provider (WISP) hold Class-A ISP License in India. All IP traffic is transported over our own Wi-Fi network utilizing high capacity Wi-Fi technology end to end.
Airway Broadband installs a Wi-Fi CPE (Outdoor Microwave transceiver) on the roof or exterior of our customer's building. We then extend an Ethernet CAT 5e network cable from this CPE down to the customer premise for connectivity into the customer's network.
Our technology use a fixed beam or transmission from one radio to another as opposed to the wireless technologies that support the mobility of a cell phone, those technologies can lose connectivity when mobile or going from cell site to cell site. Airway Broadband uses Deliberants, Radmax, and Ubiquiti, technology- fixed wireless systems that support ranges of approximately 5 Km or less and never changes or moves. This provides greater reliability and allows Airway Broadband to provide a 99.99% uptime.
We provide our customers with dedicated connections that provide speeds of 512 Kbps (kilo bit per second) to 10 Mbps (mega bit per second). DSL connections are "best effort" type technologies and do not provide a consistent or fixed bandwidth. The speed of the DSL connection varies widely from location to location and even by time of day as more or less customers get on the network.
Yes, Airway Broadband's service is guaranteed fast. Our network is symmetrical and Airway Broadband gives you the flexibility to increase service levels in the future. Businesses today need fast access for both upload and download, DSL connections do not support symmetrical access, providing only a minimal upload speed and inconsistent download speeds. Slow upload speeds from DSL make it difficult to run VPN's, remote video monitoring, Web servers, and other Internet applications.
Yes, If you need to upgrade your connection, simply gives us a call. We can implement the speed upgrade within 24 hours.
No, Although the installation looks similar and employs a small antenna on the roof, Airway Broadband provides a local microwave service. Unlike satellite which transmits into space, we are transmitting only a few miles, also the latency and throughput speeds on Airway Broadband are much quicker than satellite.
(Short answer) Yes, Airway Broadband's network provides over-the-air encryption, which cryptographically scrambles the data bits, preventing anyone "listening" to the airwaves from deciphering any messages. In fact, Airway Broadband's over-the-air link may be the most secure leg of a user's Internet connection, even more so than a wired provider's network. One of the biggest issues surrounding the Internet is security. The term "wireless" immediately raises questions on the security of the system. Most consumers have experienced the unintentional interception of portable phone signals and cellular phone signals and equate this to wireless. Explain, in layman's terms, how Airway Broadband's Wi-Fi technology addresses these problems. (Long answer) First, unlike analog telephone transmissions, digital transmissions of Internet traffic are much more difficult to intercept because of the complex cryptology associated with the technology. Second, like other Internet applications such as secure email or web browsing, users can employ many security applications which prevent eavesdropping on transmissions - whether such security applications are installed on the last-mile link to the user's house or elsewhere in the Internet. Third, Airway Broadband's fixed Wi-Fi system provides an over-the-air encryption, which cryptographically scrambles the data bits, preventing anyone "listening" to the airwaves from deciphering any messages. In fact, the microwave system's over-the-air link may be the most secure leg of the typical user's Internet connection.
Our technology use a fixed beam or transmission from one radio to another as opposed to the wireless technologies that support the mobility of a cell phone, those technologies can lose connectivity when mobile or going from cell site to cell site.

When is my monthly payment due?

Airway Broadband offers a subscription service. Payment is due no later than the 13th day of the month of service. (For a complete explanation of payment and fees, refer to the "Terms of Service".)

What is Fair usage policy (FUP)?

In simple words the FUP (Fair Usage Policy) means that even though you may subscribe to an unlimited broadband plan say for example 1 Mbps unlimited per month, and if your usage is very high and crosses a certain cap as decided by the broadband provider your connection speed will then be reduced to 512 kbps for the remaining month.

Why are Broadband providers implementing FUP?

If you have a 1 Mbps unlimited connection for a month and say for example you use the services for a full month, 24 hours a day, you will be using a lot of bandwidth. Now imagine many consumers doing the same. This will stall the whole network which is not up to date, resulting in drop in connection or slow connections. The broadband service providers are not able to handle too many simultaneous users and neither do they have advanced/ upgraded technology to do so, hence they have come up with the FUP crap.

What is Fair use and contention ratios?

Customers share internet connections - the number of people sharing a connection is called the "contention ratio" - and can be up to 50 people per line. So if one user is constantly downloading, it will slow the connection for the other users who are on at the same time.
Fair usage policies limit the usage of one user over another at peak times, so that the performance is not affected for the rest of the group. Providers tend to group people according to usage, so people who download all the time are grouped together.
These restrictions are imposed to ensure that the best quality of broadband is available to the maximum number of customers. So even though you have a 24Mbps connection with unlimited downloads, your speed may be heavily limited at peak times.
This is frustrating for a lot of people who have specifically bought high-speed packages because of their usage patterns. This kind of advertising is aimed at a heavy user and encourages people to get super speeds and unlimited allowances.
Check with your ISP to see what your contention ratio is, and what they classify as fair usage.

What is fair?

Day to day surfing, checking emails and occasional downloading will not get you into trouble with your ISP. However, downloading a 1-3GB movie every day is almost certain to. The key is to keep an eye on the amount that you are downloading. Then if you're classed as a heavy or excessive user, restructure your internet usage pattern so that you are not uploading or downloading at peak times.
If you don't take heed of their warnings, your ISP will slow down the speed of your connection at peak times. In serious cases your ISP may terminate your internet connection.

How will I know when I have cross my download limits?

We will send you an email/sms when you reach 80% of your plan's data transfer limit and again when you reach 100%. A majority of the users do not exceed the download limits as set in their plans and should not expect to receive such alerts as a norm.

How does Airway Broadband implement this policy?

Airway Broadband sets a monthly data transfer limit; this is different for different plans. Once you reach your data transfer limit, your speed will reduce as stated in your plan. Of course, at the start of your next monthly billing cycle, your monthly speed/ download limit will be reset. Also during the month, you can continue to download all you want, there are no additional data transfer caps set by Airway. Downloads continue to be unlimited as they always were.

Is there FUP on all broadband plans?

FUP is applicable on all unlimited data transfer plans. The data transfer continues to be unlimited, albeit at reduced speeds after FUP. Like mentioned before, FUP limits are imposed to ensure that the best quality of broadband is available to the maximum number of internet users.

What is Account ID ?

Account Number is the unique identification number assigned to every customer in Airway Broadband and this should be handy, when you interact with Airway Helpdesk Support and executive.

What happens in Fair Usage Policy ?

Under the policy we have defined fair usage levels for unlimited data transfer plans and needless to mention, the usage levels set are very generous such that most customers will not be affected by the Fair Usage Policy.

What would happen with the speed of service after I reach the FUP ?

On reaching the fair usage level, the plan speed would be optimized to Post FUP speed mentioned above in the table, for the rest of the month/ billing cycle as applicable. Please note that the speeds would be upgraded to the normal speeds at the start of the next month /billing cycle as applicable. While the subscriber has always the choice of choosing a right plan basis their individual requirements which is available in our website www.airwaybroadband.com

What is Broadband?

In telecommunications, broadband is a wide bandwidth data transmission with an ability to simultaneously transport multiple signals and traffic types. The medium can be coaxial cable, optical fiber, radio or twisted pair. Broadband provides a superior internet experience over dial up connection as it allows ease of downloading or uploading large-sized files or multimedia content web pages much faster. TRAI has defined Broadband as 'an always-on' data connection with minimum speeds of 512 Kbps.

What is Internet over Cable and how does it work?

It's an always-on Internet service, where high speed Internet is delivered over special cables. This technology uses Fiber and Coaxial cables to deliver Internet that has a higher capacity and are more weather resistant in comparison to Telephone cables that are designed to carry voice only. Cable Internet uses a Cable Modem to communicate between your computer and the Internet. It works in very similar manner as the modem used for dial up connection, but converting your data requirements into a high speed form compatible with the cable infrastructure.

What is a Cable Modem?

Cable Internet uses a cable modem to communicate between your computer and the Internet. The interface is between the higher speed coaxial cable and your PC. A cable modem has a capacity to transmit data at upto 4 Mbps, which is many times higher than a typical 56 kbps dialup modem.

FTTX is a generalization for several configurations of fiber deployment, arranged into groups like FTTH/FTTB/FTTF (Fiber laid all the way to the home/building/Floor) and with copper wires completing the connection. As fiber optic cables are able to carry much more data than copper cables, the traditional copper based networks are being replaced by fiber and thus paving the way for providing Gig interfaces for the subscribers.
