What Our Customers Think

Wireless Nation Ltd.
Based on 1200 reviews
Caravan
Wireless Nation provide my mobile internet and their services have been as advertised without issue or complaint. I think their rates are competitive, affordable and I highly recommend them.
Warwick Hewitt
We have just moved over to Wireless Nation from another provider, and I have been very impressed. I decided to go to the Wireless Nation office to collect my new modem. The staff member there were so helpful. He helped set up my modem and phone apps and answered all my questions. Moving the modem between the house and caravan is a breeze and works seamlessly. The Phone apps work really well (I love the Network optimization feature to improve performance) and so far, the speed and connectivity has been great. They have followed up with a call a few weeks later to check to make sure everything is working fine. I highly recommend this company.
Steve Ball
Great service and coverage. Called them and they answered the call within minutes and their support team are really very good. I am so glad I signed up with them. Highly recommended 👌
David Maxwell
Fantastic service from all of the Wireless Nation Team enabled us to disconnect from a major Telco very quickly. A phone call to Auckland one morning was followed by receipt of our router in South Canterbury early the next morning meaning we were connected to the WN WIFI system within 24 hours. Our Mobiles were connected later that day through e-SIM's. Their portable router is a very good piece of hardware and easy to move from our house and connect in our campervan (NZMCA members). Very much cheaper than the Telco's offering. Their monthly costs are also less. Their App is great for monitoring usage. Very highly recommended.
Daniel Townsend

Catherine Shakesby
Brilliant product, easy set-up and provided a home wireless service where every other provider was insisting on a Fibre connection that was going to take months to organise. Highly recommend Wireless Nation.
Debbie Emmerson
Have recently joined wireless nation for our Internet. Customer service is great. Very easy to contact and helpful. $30 cheaper a month than our existing provider. So far so good 👍
Malcolm wanganui@jae.co.nz
Great idea for people with more than one home. No need to have to pay for Internet when you are not there or if you're staying somewhere without it. We use it in Whanganui and Ohakune. No problem.
Bernie O'Sullivan

Milton Price
Great service Well worth it
Mike Diggins
Wireless Nation is a specialist provider and tends to attract an older audience. This is well catered for by excellent plain-English explanations, both on their website and in person.
I needed to resolve a problem with Zoom bandwidth that also affected streaming. This was resolved by suggesting, but not overselling, new equipment that gave an excellent result. I felt I understood exactly what I needed to upgrade, and why.
In addition, I have attended presentations by WN at motorhome rallies. Though the presenters were much younger than the audience, this was not an issue; the presentation was well-paced and informative and questions were dealt with fully and respectfully. I wish other providers did the same!
Judy Wilson
Wifi was cutting out in the caravan and I sent a request which was reset within half an hour and a phone call explaining what to do. Service was amazing. Highly recommend
Neville Smith
So convenient when traveling not having to “hot spot” to TV, tablet, PC and other phones. Good coverage in most places.
Cliff Heydon
Great company to deal with. Any issues and you get to talk to an actual human being without being on hold for 3 hours.
Ryder- Jones
Brilliant service. We had a slow connection so they looked into it, followed up a couple of days later and sent us a new modem to try that used a different network, complete with prepaid package to return our old one if the new one works out with better speeds. All organised after 7pm. Can't ask for better than that. There service is amazing.
Bret Bestic
In my dealings with Wireless Nation,I have always found them to be professional,pleasant and prompt

Use it at home, your bach, your worksite, on your boat, your vehicle – and more!

Our Portable WiFi is designed for those who need flexibility in how they work or live. Tethering is not an ideal solution when you are working remotely, on a work site, headed to the bach, or out on the water and need a bit more muscle and convenience in your connection.

We use over 1,750 towers which cover 99% of the population or, in other words, most places where people live, work and commonly travel.

Portable Wifi
NZMCA Data Modem

Equipment

Powerful 4G or 5G Modem (required)

There’s an investment of $329 for a powerful 4G Modem. This provides home-grade internet on the road and reaches further than mobile phone reception.

You can upgrade to a 5G-enabled modem for $499 if you need faster speeds in urban areas. Not sure if you need a 5G modem? Check our comparison here.

12-24V DC Surge Protection Adaptor (optional)

You can purchase a 12-24V DC Surge Protection Adaptor for $69.90 during signup, meaning the modem can run off 12-24V and keep the modem safe from voltage spikes.  Please note: the modem includes a 230/240V wall plug for mains power.

Shipping and Handling: $16.95.

Year-round Service or Flexible Holds

Full Speed Data means we do not throttle at Wireless Nation. The average peak hour speed is 38Mbps download, and 16Mbps upload. Actual speeds may be faster or slower, depending on your distance to the nearest tower, your location, and how many people are using that same tower simultaneously. Speeds are from the Commerce Commission’s Measuring Broadband New Zealand (MBNZ) Sept 2024 report.

Modem and Setup

There’s an investment of $329 for a powerful 4G-enabled Modem.

This comes with an open term meaning we’ll just need 5 working days’ notice when you wish to put it on hold (after one-month minimum activation).

Shipping and handling: $16.95.

Can I use it anywhere in NZ?

There are 1,750+ cell towers located around the country to connect to and you must be in coverage for Portable WiFi to work. You can check coverage by going to: wirelessnation.co.nz/coverage, and following the prompts.

Speeds

Both plans are suitable for dual HD streaming simultaneously and support WiFi sharing with multiple devices for Googling, Emails, Facebook, Spotify, YouTube etc.

300GB plan: 300GB full-speed data then speeds will reduce to a maximum of 1.2 Mbps once 300GB has been reached.

How much power does the modem use?

Our 4G modem only uses 0.2 Amps x 13.4 Volts = 2.7 Watts of power. Essentially it’s the same as an LED lightbulb.

Can I add a home phone line?
Yes, you can add a home phone line during online signup. You can find the pricing and features here.
 
P.S. We recommend one of our awesome mobile phone plans which comes with free standard calling to NZ/AU — also available to add during online signup. 
Disclaimer

Factors such as the performance of your modem, the distance you are from a cell tower, the network capability, the overall use of that cell tower by other customers, the performance and age of the devices you are using, and your in-home WiFi setup, can impact the speeds experienced.

This is a best efforts residential service and is not to be used for re-sale.

It can take up to 3 hours for your data to renew from midnight on the 1st of every month — this is due to the large number of connections that need to get processed through the system.
