Google Fiber is going wireless in Austin through Webpass

Coverage Type: 

Google Fiber is expanding its Austin (TX) offering, through its wireless subsidiary, Webpass. Google has been providing gigabit internet in Austin since 2014; Webpass offers fixed wireless internet service, focusing on apartment buildings and condos. Unlike traditional cable or broadband internet that needs to be wired into your building, Webpass beams internet from antennas on rooftops in your area. That signal is then sent to your building's roof, which has a receiver that's wired to take the signal and send it your apartment or home. Google Fiber Webpass will allow Google to reach more people while not requiring it to dig and hardwire each individual building the same as it would with a traditional broadband expansion.
