Short answer
Fixed wireless speeds depend on the technology and the distance from the site, with common profiles ranging from about 5 to 10 Mbps up to 100 Mbps or more. Services are typically asymmetric, with faster download than upload, and often uncapped.

What else to know about FirstNet fixed wireless:
- It is a packaged fixed-site service delivered over fixed 5G or approved partner platforms.
- It is contended and best-effort, so speeds can vary with load on the network.
- It usually carries an availability target of up to about 99%, with next-business-day fault restoration as standard.
- It typically includes one static public IP.
- A coverage and capacity check, or a site survey, confirms what is achievable at your address, including whether an indoor or outdoor unit is needed.
Fixed wireless is the next option FirstNet assesses after licensed microwave for a fixed site without fibre, and it is also used as cost-effective failover for a fibre primary. If you need consistent speeds with stronger service levels, licensed microwave or fibre is preferred where feasible, and Dedicated Internet Access gives committed, symmetric bandwidth.
