Hi team,

We are looking to get a wireless broadband solution to use in inner Auckland. It would be used near Ellerslie/Greenlane area.

This would only be used in our new office and we don’t need a lot of data. (300-500GB would be more than enough).

What’s the best provider at the moment out of Spark, Vodafone and 2degrees? All the providers seem to think they can provide this service.

Take a Spark/Vodafone/2degrees mobile to the site, and run a speedtests (and do this at different times of the day)

There is no "best" provider over all with Fixed Wireless, all three providers will have different results in different areas

All the carriers provide 5G in the area so pick one that best suits you for pricing

Is this a permanent or temporary setup? If the former, have you considered fibre?

We are leasing a small office so would need wireless broadband.

If it's a temporary shipping container-type setup then yes wireless is probably a good option, but if you're there permanently there's nothing to stop you getting a wireless setup first, then getting fibre installed 🙂
