What is ultra-fast WiFi?

With speeds of up to one gigabit, Street Hub wi-fi is most likely the fastest you’ve ever experienced, with no data caps or annoying ads.

Will I always receive a gigabit of bandwidth when using Street Hub WiFi?

Not always. Many factors can affect the real bandwidth available to a connected device. Among these are the number of devices connected, individual device performance, radio interference in the environment from wireless or other electronic devices, and the speed of the services being accessed. It’s rare to get the full gigabit, but by providing a gigabit network we’re ensuring the best possible performance for all.

How many people can use WiFi at one Street Hub hotspot before WiFi speed slows down?

A Street Hub can support hundreds of users simultaneously up to 100 or 150 metres from each unit. Performance depends on the activity, and the network is always shared equally with all connected users.
