Wireless LTE is an excellent choice for any business that relies on the internet for their daily operations, or in order to facilitate sales. That’s because Wireless LTE can be relied upon when your primary internet connection experiences any issues – whether that be due to weather, outdated equipment or slow speeds. Simply put, the cost of internet downtime when it occurs, in addition to its disruption of your standard business operations, is typically far greater that the low cost of reliable, fast and effective Wireless LTE – in addition to the peace of mind it offers as well.

Wireless LTE as an internet failover solution will guarantee 100% uptime if it proactively monitors your primary internet connection, and proactively switches over all of your devices in the case of an outage. Comwave’s Wireless LTE as an internet failover solution conducts proactive, 24/7 monitoring of your primary internet network, without the need for manual involvement or management. If it is not able to connect to your primary internet network, you receive an outage notification, and all of your devices are automatically reconnected to the secure, active Wireless LTE network – ensuring 100% internet uptime.

In order for Wireless LTE to provide a reliable, strong Wi-Fi internet connection, it requires a strong, effective router to transmit internet access throughout your business location. Comwave partners with CradlePoint devices for the most reliable Wireless LTE internet connection. CradlePoint routers and devices are equipped with Power-over-Ethernet for flexible, unobtrusive placement anywhere to optimize reception and access. CradlePoint routers also use dual high-gain external antennas to ensure that even without optimal placement of your router, you will still have access to strong, reliable Wireless LTE internet.

While the exact systems and applications that a business relies on Wireless LTE internet to access can vary, there are a few that Comwave recommends to almost every business we work with. In particular, it’s strongly recommended to have POS systems rely on Wireless LTE Internet, at least as a failover solution, to guarantee that sales are not lost during internet downtime. Additionally, it’s often recommended that SaaS applications like VoIP telephones, Salesforce and Office 365 rely on Wireless LTE Internet – again, at least as a failover solution – to ensure that productivity remains normal in the event of an internet outage.

While the exact uses of Wireless LTE internet depend on the unique circumstances of each business, oftentimes Wireless LTE internet is recommended as a failover solution within the office, and as a primary internet connection away from the office. At the office, Wireless LTE internet often supplements a primary, wired connection as a failover solution in case of an internet outage. However, on the road, or within a large indoor environment like an exhibition centre or even a large restaurant, Wireless LTE internet is often relied on as the primary internet connection.
