Wireless Internet Service Providers in the US

While major telecommunication carriers, cable providers and satellite providers compete to satisfy consumers' want for data services, much of rural America has been left behind. The high cost of bringing service to sparsely populated areas for major companies has left room for developing the Wireless Internet Service Providers industry. Wireless internet service providers (WISPs) use transmission towers that communicate with each other and with small transceivers installed at customers' locations to provide broadband internet access to unserved and underserved areas. Industry revenue is expected to climb an annualized 11.1% to reach an estimated $538.4 million over the five years to 2023, including 6.8% growth in 2023. The pandemic further benefited demand for wireless internet services, as the industry was essential to living and working at home during the pandemic.

Wireless internet service providers (WISPs), also known as fixed wireless broadband providers, use fixed terrestrial wireless networks to provide internet access, usually in rural areas. Most WISPs use unlicensed spectrum and are locally based. This industry does not include mobile broadband services provided by major telecommunications companies.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
