How much data does an hour of Netflix use?
Watching movies or TV shows on Netflix uses about 1 GB of data per hour for each stream of standard definition video, and up to 3 GB per hour for each stream of HD video. This can create headaches for Netflix members who have a low monthly bandwidth or data cap on their Internet service so ring to organise a better plan if it's an issue for you.
No you can continue to use your current provider.

Extra Explanation on SMTP:
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is an Internet standard for electronic mail (e-mail) transmission. First defined by RFC 821 in 1982, it was last updated in 2008 with the Extended SMTP additions by RFC 5321 - which is the protocol in widespread use today.
SMTP by default uses TCP port 25. The protocol for mail submission is the same, but using port 587, and SMTP connections secured by SSL, known as SMTPS, default to port 465.
While electronic mail servers and other mail transfer agents use SMTP to send and receive mail messages, user-level client mail applications typically use SMTP only for sending messages to a mail server for relaying. For receiving messages, client applications usually use either the POP3 or the IMAP.
While proprietary systems (such as Microsoft Exchange and Lotus Notes/Domino) and webmail systems (such as Hotmail, Gmail and Yahoo! Mail) use their own non-standard protocols to access mail box accounts on their own mail servers, all use SMTP when sending or receiving email from outside their own systems.

If you wish to change your data plan then this will be activated as soon as possible and usually part of the current billing period.
If you wish to terminate your subscription with WIZwireless there will be a fee if it's within your contract ie 1 month or 12 months depending on contract. If you are outside of any contract period then the fee is equivalent of 1 month's subscription so it is best to ring awhile before you plan to move so we can prepare the admin for the uninstall. An installer will visit to uninstall the radio equipment if required.
If you have a Vodafone mobile subscription and purchase a Sure Signal hardware from Vodafone Masterton then you can use your mobile on our network. No extra monthly charges.
We can transfer your land line to VoIP service with our partner 2Talk. Please get us to port your phone number before you cancel your current service or else you may lose your current phone number. Port fee currently $23 and monthly fees plans start at $11.50/month. This can be done after you have connected to our WIZwireless internet service.
Selected mobile models work on 2 Degrees network via our network so check with them if your mobile can do WiFi calling
All our network is wireless infrastructure which means it needs to be able to “see” where the wireless signal is coming from. It doesn’t like trees in the way nor large brick or corrugated iron buildings. If you are at all concerned about your LOS to one of our many radio masts, we recommend that you have a Line of Sight visit and the technician will check the LOS to a radio mast and give a recommendation e.g. we can install your radio equipment here just 100m from the house with a cable run. We have various broadband install options up to 800m
From experience we have found that the radio equipment is quite sensitive to power cuts and power fluctuations but you can try an installation initially without one but you will need to add an Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) if any technical support is due to power cuts.
This is especially important if you use a VoIP service because if you lose power you will also lose your phone service unless you have independent mobile coverage.
Ring the office to discuss various hardware options which can be purchased from any computer supplier shop. Below are two units we use ourselves.

Difference between 4G and fixed wireless is hard to quantify in a sentence so I have tried to summarise it.
4G (Fourth generation Mobile Communications) Wireless World Research Forum defines 4G as: A network that operates on Internet technology, combines it with other applications and technologies such as Wi-Fi, 4G mobile internet works by connecting to a mobile network with a SIM card. It's the internet you connect to when you're out and about with your smartphone
Fixed broadband doesn’t utilize a cellular network like your mobile phone does. The service requires line of sight access between the subscriber and a radio repeater. Obstructions from hills or trees prohibit it being installed in some locations. It is internet between two fixed locations via a radio and a receiver. Fixed wireless relies on small stations to transfer data at high speeds, but localized. Because the stations are clustered close together, the technology is capable of delivering faster internet speeds than 4G with lower latency.
