What is WombatWireless™ 4G+?
WombatWireless™ 4G+ is a premium wireless broadband service powered by One NZ’s nationwide 4G mobile network. It delivers fast, reliable internet across most locations in the Wellington region and anywhere with 4G coverage. In areas with weaker signal strength, an external antenna may be required to improve reception and ensure optimal performance.
How fast is WombatWireless™ 4G+?
Typical speeds range from 20Mbps to 100Mbps, depending on tower distance and signal quality.
Our Unlimited-Max plan allows speeds of up to 350Mbps for those located in urban areas or close to a tower.
With a properly installed antenna, many customers experience speeds comparable to urban fibre.
What’s the difference between 4G and 4G+?
While both technologies use the same mobile tower infrastructure, 4G+ (also known as LTE Advanced) is a faster, more advanced version of standard 4G. It works by combining multiple frequency bands from the same or nearby towers (a process called carrier aggregation or channel bonding) to increase total bandwidth and boost speeds.
This means:
•Faster downloads and uploads
•Better performance during peak times
•More stable connections, especially for streaming and video calls
WombatWireless™ 4G+ routers are specifically configured to take advantage of these capabilities from the One NZ network.
What’s the difference between self-install and managed install?
The type of installation depends on your 4G signal strength.
•Self-install: If your property has strong reception, your router can be shipped to you. Simply plug it in and connect. A $14.99 freight charge applies. Includes a 30-day connection guarantee.
•Managed install: If signal strength is low, our technician will assess your property and recommend an external antenna to boost performance. A site visit is conducted before any work begins, and a no-obligation quote will be provided.
What does managed installation typically involve?
A managed installation includes:
•A site visit to assess local signal levels
•Installation of an external directional or omni antenna
•Complete professional setup and configuration of your router
Because each property is different, antenna models and mountings may vary. Pricing will be based on your unique situation.
How does wireless broadband actually work?
Wireless broadband delivers internet to your property via radio signals:
•WombatWireless™ X: Connects your home directly to one of WombatNET’s private transmitter sites.
•WombatWireless™ 4G+: Connects using One NZ’s mobile towers, like a phone accessing mobile data.
Both systems eliminate the need for fixed lines and are ideal for rural or semi-urban locations.
Can I use my own router?
For optimal performance, we recommend using the pre-configured WombatNET 4G+ router. However, advanced users may bring their own device if it is compatible with One NZ’s 4G bands and supports external antennas.
Please contact us to check.
An additional one-off $25 charge will be applied to supply an unlocked SIM card.
Is there a contract?
WombatWireless™ 4G+ is offered without a contract if you purchase a router/modem upfront. If renting a router ($15/m), a standard 24-month term applies.
You may switch between plans anytime without penalty. If we are unable to resolve a service-impacting issue within a reasonable timeframe, we will release you from your contract.
How soon can I get connected?
Most new connections are completed within 7 days of first contact, depending on:
•Signal availability at your location
•Weather conditions (for managed installs)
•Equipment or technician availability
We will let you know if any of these factors might affect you.
What is included in the monthly price?

- 4G+ speeds
- Parental control (on some systems)
- Technical support
- Ongoing connection monitoring and diagnostics
