Fibre Broadband: Aptus offers 3 packages with our Elite package giving speeds of up to 2GB. (Essential giving speeds of 500Mbs and Extra giving up to 1GB)
Wireless Broadband: There are several factors that can influence your wireless Wi-Fi speed. The best broadband for rural areas offers speeds of up to 100Mbs which will easily allow multiple devices to stream a film or play an online game at the same time.
Wireless Broadband: The system is straightforward. It will either work or it will not work and there is no in-between. If the connection passes all the engineer’s tests, then it will be installed, and you will have a connection that will be able to get the speeds available on your package. If any of the engineer’s test fails, then the connection will not be installed.
