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 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.

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 $10 and monthly fees start at $11.50/month. This can be done after you have connected to our WIZwireless internet service.
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 our VoIP service because if you lose power you will also lose your phone service.
