Many organizations rely on landline formats such as Cable and DSL as their primary internet connections, but landlines are vulnerable to disruption, no matter how reliable your internet service provider is. With businesses moving the majority of their day-to-day technology to the cloud, a secure, reliable internet connection is pertinent to avoiding downtime if internet connection is disrupted. This is where LTE Failover networks come in to provide a reliable backup solution.
LTE Failover is a cellular network that keeps your business running smoothly when unexpected disruptions to your internet connection occur. LTE offers your business continuity by providing a reliable backup network if your primary internet connection is ever compromised.
Many businesses feel that having a backup connection is an unnecessary added expense, however, the benefits of an LTE backup far outweigh the cost of downtime to your business due to a failed internet connection.
Internet disruptions are far more common than some may think. Common Elements that affect Internet Connection include:
Internet outages are typically always unexpected, so having a backup plan to keep your business afloat when outages occur will put you ahead of the game.
The LTE failover router connects to the primary router and sends continuous probes, which constantly test your internet connection. Once the failover router detects a link failure from the primary router, it kicks in to take over the main connection, giving your business full continuity. At Comwave, we offer industry-leading failover technology through Cradlepoint. Cradlepoint is the global leader in cloud-managed 3G/4G networking solutions, providing business-grade, secure connectivity to distributed enterprises.
Whether you have a small brick-and-mortar business or a large enterprise-level business, you likely rely on an internet connection to keep the day-to-day operation of your business running smoothly. As a result of this, if your primary internet connection fails, your operations are at risk of coming to a halt.
To better understand how important internet connection is for your business, we’ve outlined some common technology that your industry uses to operate:
Restaurants and retailers rely on receiving payments from customers through Point of Sale technology. Nearly 100% of PoS systems run through cloud technology which relies on an internet connection to work. If your primary internet connection fails, you will be unable to make transactions with your customers, ultimately putting a halt to your operation. With LTE Failover internet, in the event your internet connection fails, you will always have a backup connection through cellular data that will keep your PoS operable.
Don’t let an internet outage impact your ability to service customers and receive payments. Invest in an LTE Failover solution with Comwave.
Today’s modern businesses are implementing more and more cloud-based technology and Software-as-a-Service applications to keep their businesses competitive. The more applications your business has in the cloud, the more susceptible you are to being affected by internet outages. With this in mind, your business must have a solid business continuity solution.
Examples of technology your business is using that is powered by the internet:
If your business is operational today, you are more than likely using technology that is powered by the cloud. Don’t let your operation come to a standstill in the event of an internet outage and consider investing in a redundant connectivity solution.
Whether you are running a temporary restaurant, food truck, or pop-up shop, you are likely in need of an internet connection to serve your customers. Whether it be to power your PoS and receive payments, or offer a wifi signal for your guests, an internet connection is essential for customer satisfaction.

These are great solutions for someone who needs access to browse the internet, but if you are relying on an internet connection to power your PoS and service your customers, you will want to go with a more secure connection.
