5G FWA and temporary internet for business
Need internet at a site that has no line, or cannot wait for one? We supply 4G and 5G broadband for businesses: as a permanent line using 5G fixed wireless access (FWA), as a stopgap while a leased line is installed, or as temporary internet for site offices, events and pop-up sites. Tell us where and for how long, and we will recommend the right option.

5G FWA as your main lineWhere fibre is slow or not available, an outdoor 5G unit can be the main broadband line.About 5G FWA
What is 5G FWA?
Fixed wireless access uses the mobile network as a broadband line. Rather than a phone or dongle, an outdoor 5G unit or a router with a roof antenna picks up the strongest signal and brings it into the building over Ethernet. On a good 5G signal, speeds often beat rural copper broadband by a wide margin, and it can be installed in days rather than months. Our explainer on what 5G FWA is goes into the detail.
One simple solution: a 5G outdoor unit and an unlimited SIM
For a lot of sites the answer is two products. The Milesight UF51 outdoor 5G CPE is an IP67 unit with its antennas built in. It mounts outside, on a wall, pole or cabin roof where the signal is best, and feeds the building over one Ethernet cable that also powers it. Pair it with an EE unlimited data SIM and plug the cable into a switch or Wi-Fi access point inside. No aerials to cable up, no coax losses, and no data allowance to watch.

Where it is used
Common jobs include site cabins and construction offices, events and pop-up sites, office broadband, temporary CCTV and resilience and emergency connectivity. Where a connection must not drop, bonded 5G combines several networks into one.
No usable 4G or 5G? Satellite broadband
Some sites have no usable mobile signal at all: remote farms, quarries, wind and solar sites, rural construction, moorland events. For these we supply low Earth orbit satellite broadband, including Starlink and OneWeb business services, with hardware leasing, installation and short-term rental through our partner network. Satellite can also run alongside 4G or 5G, with automatic failover between them, for sites that cannot afford to drop. See satellite broadband for business.
Frequently asked questions
Is 5G FWA fast enough for an office?
On a good 5G signal, yes for most offices: video calls, cloud software and file sharing all work well. Speed depends on coverage and how busy the local mast is, so we check your postcode first.
Can I get 5G FWA with unlimited data?
Yes. We supply EE unlimited data SIMs for routers and outdoor units, so there is no allowance to watch.
How quickly can you get a site online?
Usually within days. Equipment we hold in stock ships for next working day delivery, and rental kits are available for short jobs.
Do I need an outdoor unit?
Not always. Indoors near a window, a 5G router can be enough. In a metal cabin, a basement or a rural area, an outdoor unit or roof antenna usually makes a big difference.
