Curious about acquiring AirFiber similar to Deadmau5? In my area, service providers aren’t prioritizing Fiber solutions, so I currently rely on a WISP provider with limited speeds (around 15mbps). I already have a 50-foot tower on my property. I’m trying to find the right contact or company to get this service. I recall Deadmau5 mentioned he receives it from Milton, Ontario. My location is Puslinch, Ontario. I was also considering Ubiquiti products, but noticed their Canadian store appears less active compared to the US site, and they don’t stock all AirFiber options. I suspect differences in frequency licensing between regions might be the reason. Looking at the US Ubiquiti store, the airFiber 5 seems like a strong choice for its 100km range, though I’m curious about the airFiber 60 LR compatibility. I’m unsure how to connect to the network and would value any advice on this process. Thanks for your help—I’m just starting out.
Identify local WISPs offering support and their suggested equipment. Ensure compatibility before purchasing premium options.
The OP doesn’t have AT&T. They either A) refer to Canada where AT&T isn’t available, or B) claim they’re using a WISP that differs from LTE/5G, which AT&T doesn’t offer. I agree with @Falcon1986—best to reach out to the ISP first and check their capabilities. Their current speed might be around 15 Mbps.
You're wondering whether you'd be linking to an Internet Exchange that supplies ISPs with internet access, or if you'd go straight through the ISP's network. One option is reaching out to Bell or Rogers, since you can observe their towers from your location and ask if they'd install an airFibre module on their equipment to give you a 1Gbps connection.
How much cash do you possess? Since they’re probably going to bill you thousands each month just to achieve that, and who confirms they control those structures? In the United States, mobile carriers merely rent tower space, as it’s more economical. If it’s a WISP, they operate a transmitter nearby—this is what you’re linked to. They manage connections through their own service providers. Achieving better internet speeds won’t come from fiber; those are set by the ISP.
Absolutely clear on this. I’m considering switching to a different ISP, and I’m curious whether they offer a dedicated high-speed connection for just one user. Or would I need to reach out to an Internet Exchange or similar provider to secure that link?
You're clearly looking for substantial funding again. That's why you're not grasping. If you possess funds, a business would happily lay fiber directly to you. They won't offer the service cheaply, since they don't need to—they'll charge what ISP providers charge.
