Airties extends Telstra deployment

Telstra has expanded its relationship with managed Wi-Fi solutions provider Airties. Its new Smart Modem 3 includes Airties Edge, embedded Smart Wi-Fi software with its operator-grade EasyMesh software controller.

“As Australia’s leading broadband provider, we’re constantly looking to drive innovation in speed, reliability, and connectivity so our customers can enjoy the best Wi- Fi experience,” said Nathan Gumley, Executive of Home & Entertainment at Telstra.

“Now, more than ever, our world is dependent on reliable home Wi-Fi and connectivity,” said Philippe Alcaras, CEO of Airties. “Telstra understands this fully, and we are very proud to play our part in to help them execute on their vision. Our work with Telstra also shows that Airties continues to be at the forefront of EasyMesh deployments and empowering our customers to differentiate using Smart Wi-Fi.”

Telstra new Smart Modem 3 offers the latest Wi-Fi 6 wireless speeds and capacity to improve internet connections; 4G backup; smart tech support features; security enhancements with automatic software updates; and compatibility with EasyMesh for Telstra’s Smart Wi-Fi Boosters that power its Wi-Fi Coverage Guarantee.
