Digital Agent Develops New, Cost-Effective and Flexible Backup Internet Solution

ATLANTA, September 22, 2021 (Newswire.com) - Digital Agent has launched a new, wireless option for backup business internet: wireless WAN (Wide Area Network). Wireless WAN is set to become the dominant backup WAN for small businesses that need 100% up-time. More cost-effective and flexible than traditional backup internet solutions like coaxial connections, wireless WAN is now included with fiber internet for all Digital Agent customers.

"Backup internet is an essential service for a lot of businesses, especially in the healthcare, legal, and financial fields. Wireless WAN is a great opportunity for businesses to have a failover connection that is reliable, easy to set up, and more cost-effective than wired backup connections," said Howard Hunter, owner of Digital Agent.

Serving businesses throughout the continental U.S., Digital Agent is an Atlanta-based ISP, CLEC, MSP, and MSSP. They customize internet, telecommunications, technology and cybersecurity solutions to suit each clients' unique needs and budget. Digital Agent recommends wireless WAN to all customers currently using a cable backup solution; wireless WAN is easier to implement and is not at risk of failing from a cut or downed line.

According to Cradlepoint's "2020 State of Wireless WAN" report, "5G is expected to explode over the next three years, and clearly, enthusiasm is high, as nearly half of respondents plan to deploy 5G links in existing locations when it becomes an option. This makes sense, as 5G - which boasts lower latency and higher throughput - is expected to enhance user experience and improve workforce productivity. The survey reveals ITDMs are confident that 5G will deliver on the promise of increased speed, improvement over 4G LTE, enhanced coverage, and better reliability as it rolls out. Among respondents, 46% said they expect to increase their use of 5G at existing locations within the next three years…[and] 78% of IT decision-makers are using or considering using LTE or 5G as the only WAN link in their branch locations."

The shift to 5G is clearly speeding up. To help businesses decide if 5G is right for them, Digital Agent offers network audits and educational material on the benefits of wireless backup internet. Their goal in this educational campaign is to empower business owners to protect themselves from the loss of data and business that can come from an unexpected internet outage.
