Public WiFi

Offer Public WiFi Connectivity At-Scale

With public WiFi, entire remote communities can enjoy internet access

Australian Private Networks' Public WiFi solution, also referred to as Community WiFi, provides the ability for any member of the general public to be connected to the internet without compromising Business or Private network data.

As an independent and segregated network, the Public WiFi has its own data allocations.

A proprietary system developed by APN specifically for remote and rural Australia, our Public WiFi is a fully configurable solution that enables users free or purchased internet access or a mix of both.

Users can purchase data through an easily accessible online portal with all administration handled by Australian Private Networks.

Internet-access can also, optionally, be sold through a retail channel, with the facility available for retail 'Data Pins' to be sold by chosen merchants.
