Does Swoop work on phone lines or Satellite?
Swoop is independent of phone lines. Nor does it work on slow satellite services. Swoop works using a fixed wireless connection, which is achieved through installing an antenna on your roof and pointing it toward one of our towers. This eliminates relying on aging phone lines or satellite which has increased latency due to the signal travelling thousands of kilometers.
