The pre-wire process

Step 1
Coverage check
The rural sales team will perform a coverage check to see if the new build is in coverage of a Lightwire wireless rural broadband tower. You can read more about that process here.
Step 2
Line of sight check
A technician is sent out to the build site to see if there is anything blocking the line of sight between the build and the tower e.g. trees & hills.


Step 3
