Netwitz is currently providing Air Speed Wireless Internet Access in much of Marion, Clinton and Washington counties. We are working to establish additional Wireless Points-of-Presence (WPOPs) in other surrounding areas. Customers must be able to achieve line of site to one of our WPOPs. These WPOPs are simply a series of antennas that are mounted high above the ground and connected back to our Network Operations Center (NOC) . Customers subscribing to our service only need to install a small receiving antenna on outside of their home or office in order to receive Wireless Internet Access.

Air Speed Wireless Internet Access from Netwitz frees you from the constraints of a wired connection without having to sacrifice speed. No phone lines are needed to connect the Internet so there are no busy signals, no disconnects and no second phone lines to pay for. Wireless Internet is not subject to the distance restrictions of DSL. You cannot receive DSL if you are more than 3 miles from the telephone office. Netwitz currently has wireless customers connected to access points located over 15 miles away.

Read our list of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How does it compare to Cable or DSL?

Most cable and DSL providers either limit your speeds quite a bit, or they oversell their service so much that you end up with hundreds of users fighting over a small scrap of bandwidth and everyone ends up with a fraction of the service they expected to get when they signed up. Others put monthly data transfer limits on their service, after which they charge you more for continued Internet access, or suspend your service all together. Also - be aware of additional taxes and charges from DSL and Cable companies which may not be listed with the price of service.

How does it compare to satellite Internet?

Satellite Internet is really a last resort semi high-speed Internet service. The actual download speed of satellite can be quite high, but because of the limitations of the technology, the latency of the connection is very high, even worse than a dial-up connection. Which can make it seem unresponsive while browsing web-pages, and impossible to play games, whatch videos, or use voice over IP telephone services. You also have to contend with the weather just as you would with satellite TV. When it's cloudy, rainy, snowing, etc. Your service will suffer, and even fail at times.

I play online games, is wireless any good for that?

Yes. Netwitz Internet Services wireless broadband is excellent for online game playing! There is almost always less than 20ms latency between you and us, and then it's a straight shot to the Internet over our high-speed dedicated connections.

How long does it take to get?

Most installations can be completed within two weeks of your first call. Sometimes, special consideration needs to be taken into account for wiring, special order equipment, etc..

What else do I get besides faster Internet?

Unlike expensive T1, we also provide you with the other services you would expect from a dial-up Internet provider such as e-mail accounts which are spam and virus filtered, web-based e-mail access, and much more!
