Daughter has just bought a house in Christchurch that has Enable fibre at the gate but not installed to the house. The owners have been using spark wireless.

 

4G and 5G wireless internet is available, so wondering what download and upload speeds she would probably get.

 

Thanks.

Difficult to say due to Cell Tower load. If there is fibre at the gate then get fibre installed as it is free to install

How long is a piece of string??




Spark Max Fibre using Mikrotik CCR1009-8G-1S-1S+, CRS125-24G-1S, Unifi UAP, U6-Pro, UAP-AC-M-Pro, Apple TV 4K (2022), Apple TV 4K (2017), iPad Air 1st gen, iPad Air 4th gen, iPhone 13, SkyNZ3151 (the white box). If it doesn't move then it's data cabled.
