How is the service provided?
To receive the service you need to be within line of site (LOS) of one of Andover On-Lines base stations. Each base station has a range of approximately 2-6Km. Once ordered, a qualified Andover engineer will visit the site within 5 working days, conduct a LOS test and assuming the signal strength is within tolerance, the service will be installed.

Why Andover On-Lines Radio Network is secure
The Andover On-Lines radio network uses a product called WORP from Proxim Networks. The technology uses Identification between the Base node and the Subscriber node using a MD5 secret string, which means each unit on the network has to be registered and both know that their peer belongs to the network. Additionally WORP uses 128 bit encryption using WEP+ with
weak key avoidance to encrypt the data being sent. Fourth, Access Control (authentication)
occurs locally and via Radius server.
