General WIRELESS Usage Policy
To ensure our customers receive a fast, quality and sustainable online experience all the traffic on the network is prioritised by type.
Using traffic prioritisation ensures that critical time sensitive applications, for example streaming, gaming or VoIP have a higher priority and will be fully operational regardless of the load on the network. In addition, by effectively utilising traffic priority management we also reduce the chance of the network becoming congested in the first place.
For further information pertaining to our Bandwidth Priority Profiles and how these relate to our WIRELESS Product Ranges, please read the relevant Knowledge Base article here IH4A reserves the right to amend the General WIRELESS Usage Policy as necessary. This is to ensure optimal performance across our network for the majority of WIRELESS customers.
