There are several types of network extensions that we can provide for you depending on the solution you require.  In a nutshell the three extensions are: 

Coverage Extension  

When you need to bounce a signal off a neighbouring building or property to get a connection. 

 

On-farm Extension 

When you want to extend your current connection to other buildings on your property (cowshed or workshop). 

 

Solar Extension 

When you want to create coverage extension for multiple sites on your property. 

 

Coverage Extension 

If you don’t have line of sight from the property where you want to install your Lightwire connection, a coverage extension will allow you to relay or extend your connection through neighbouring buildings or properties using a wireless link. 

Further information on coverage extensions can be found here. 

The costs involved are: 

• $300 installation fee 
• $10 monthly per additional account 
• 12-month minimum term 

On-farm extension

If you want to extend your internet connection to other buildings on your property such as a cowshed, workshop, or sleepout, an on-farm extension will extend your existing network without adding an additional account.

Further information on on-farm extensions can be found here.

The costs involved are:

• $600 installation fee
• $30 monthly per additional location on the same account

 

Solar Extension

If you have no line of sight to a Lightwire tower, a solar extension allows you to create an extension of the area of coverage for multiple sites on your property.

Further information on solar extensions can be found here.

The costs involved are:

• $3000 installation fee
• $199 installation fee per additional location
• $10 monthly per additional location
