FAQ
PennWisp is locally owned and operated and has a state-of-the art network designed to give you around-the-clock internet access. To guarantee low prices and ease of service, we don't require you to 'bundle' your internet service with extras you don't need!
We provide 'fixed wireless internet', meaning that our internet is provided at a 'fixed' location, typically your home or business.
You can use the service within the range of you wireless router in your home or office.
No. Although our company uses equipment similar to satellite providers, we use terrestrial locations, which are thousands of miles closer than satellite, to provide signal to your home
The amount of bandwidth you need--3Mbps or 5Mbps--depends on these factors: how many people or devices are connected to the internet at the same time and the kind of use (streaming movies or TV, gaming, or browsing).
The bandwidth for each package is divided among all of the connected devices. The more of these things you want to do at the same time, the more bandwidth you need.

All credit card, banking, and personal information is stored on PCI compliant servers and are audited several times per year for continuing compliance.
WISPs use fixed wireless broadband technology to deliver the same high speeds and service of traditional broadband providers but delivered wirelessly as opposed to through buried cables. Typically, a small antenna is placed on your home or office that receives a direct signal from a WISP tower near by. Unlike technology used for cellular data, the wireless connection from your home “end point” and the tower allows for fast reliable service via a fixed wireless connection. This prevents the interrupted data experienced by cell phone users that often happen as signals bounce from one tower to another. See why PC world says WISPs are the future of Internet service.
