We're beyond excited to introduce Max (not his full name!), the newest member of the PopUp WiFi team. Max, a professional videographer/photographer-turned-network-administrator, is exactly right for heading up our Support team. Not only does he truly "get" what it's like to be knee-deep in live technical production, but he also comes to us straight from a gruelling IT Support Analyst role at a large SaaS company. When Max isn't entertaining us with frankly fabulous production war stories (our absolute favourite type of story), you'll find him scouring our systems for every chance to enhance the live Support experience or enjoying spending time with his young family. We hope you'll get a chance to say g'day to Max and join us in giving him a huge, welcoming, high five ✋️.

Tarik is what you’d call a “dark horse.” Unassuming and relaxed, you’d be forgiven for underestimating what a productivity machine this guy is – but don’t be fooled! Tarik is a skilled software programmer, festival director and performer – the perfect addition to the PopUp WiFi team. He’s been with us for about a year, enough time to transform our operations so much we can’t even remember what life was like before he showed up.
Here are just a few of Tarik’s achievements this year:
– He created “Ground Control,” our proprietary network management software, which consolidates all our cloud-management tools across platforms so our network engineers can see and manage every aspect of the performance on all units in one view;
– He created “Slipstream” – our new live network performance tool for producers that allows hirers to access all the essential information relating to their managed internet
rental from any device, whether they’re onsite or remote;
– He co-produced a new-and-improved Great Escape music festival on New Year’s Eve, with over 1,500 campers enjoying a new site and bigger-than-ever lineup;
– He created and launched our new Quote Builder that speeds up quoting managed internet for events so producers get a quote by the following business day.
When he’s not streamlining our operations, you’ll find Tarik singing with his band @chasecitymusic writing event management software (watch this space) and plotting his next move with @great_escape_music_festival

Starlink + PopUp WiFi = Festival Network Success
When @partyinthepaddock reached out to connect their biggest remote event yet, co-founder Andrew knew it was time to get out the big guns. With over 400 production devices running multiple bars, vendors and merch sales, plus media, site crew, ticketing, emergency services and CCTV, even a short dropout could cost thousands of dollars.
With 20K fans turning up at the remote site, internet connectivity was critical and high risk. Festival director Ryan invested in rented PopUp WiFi units, which were connected to a Starlink dish for each key area at his festival. This solution bonded multiple cellular connections from three diverse carriers to the Starlink satellite WAN. You could think of it like going up in an airplane with four engines running – one, two or three engines might cut out, but there’s no crash landing because at least one prop will keep spinning.
The result?
The festival network combined the power and speed of multiple 5G connections together with the relative reliability of satellite internet. Despite intermittent outages on the satellite connnection over the four days and the odd dropout on the cellular services, Ryan still got seamless managed internet site-wide.
How to replicate this setup:
1) Choose a location with plenty of access to clear sky
2) Connect your Starlink to a sturdy post
3) Secure it to a high point
4) Strap and zip-tie the PopUp WiFi unit to the post
5) Connect the Starlink ethernet cable to the WAN port on the unit
6) Scan the QR code to connect to PopUp WiFi’s Slipstream app for live network insights, then complete your Starlink initialization.

Our techs review your set ups:
Thanks to The Tasman Peninsula Feast for getting this Beast in perfect position. Standing upright on a sturdy surface and 4' above the ground, this Beast is ready to service POS and back-of-house production devices across the outdoor site on the rural Southern Tasman Peninsula.
When elevated between 4-10' the Aruba access point inside Beast each case has the best chance of servicing a far greater range, because it can “see” all of the devices it needs to serve without any WiFi blocking obstructions.

PRODUCERS: If you want an unbeatable power supply for your event internet, this tip is for you!
Don't underestimate the power of backup! While our PopUp WiFi units come with a standard three pronged plug that you can simply plug into any standard outlet, we recommend adding a lithium-ion battery for unbeatable peace of mind. Why? In the event of a power outage or a faulty power outlet, your connection won't drop, thanks to seamless failover to the backup battery. Plus, your battery won't drain while your unit is plu#popupwifiau.#popupwifiusa#batterybackup #upst#lithiumionU#portableinternetortableinternet

Knowledge Is Power.
All PopUp WiFi rentals include access to the Slipstream Network Insights tool for live intelligence across the event network on any device from anywhere.
Slipstream gives professional producters these critical stats in real time:
– How many devices are connected to your network
– Which users are consuming the most data
– If there are any power outages at your venue
– Which units are on/off line
– How much network traffic is moving across your network
– How much data is being used vs. remaining
Instant intel = faster decisions 💪

Not all heroes wear capes. Sometimes, you'll find them in a hot-pink flamingo suit and a staff lanyard.

Our techs review your set ups:
What a sight to behold: the elegant combination of Starlink + PopUp WiFi combining forces against the bright blue backdrop of a partly cloudy sky. There are so many things our techs love about this one – the perfectly elevated unit, the firmly fastened support, the Starlink's clear line of sight to the sky and the neatly taped and coiled cords. You can see why this one had our techs in a near frenzy.
Starlink and PopUp WiFi made a rock-solid combination at Party In The Paddock 2024, expertly merging multiple separate WAN connections (satellite and bonded cellular connections from the three major carriers) into one cohesive network. The result? Optimal signal strength and enhanced reliability for back-of-house, POS and media editing and uploadi#popupwifiaui#popupwifiusi#Starlinkr#satellitel#BondedCellularlular

Need reliable internet at rural outdoor events? You deserve it!
Events are the lifeblood of rural communities, giving opportunities for masses to come together to share local food, arts, craft and vibrant music and entertainment. The annual Tasman Peninsula Feast did just this, putting together a hearty festival over the Australia Day long weekend in Nubeena. However, finding reliable internet for outdoor events can be a major hassle for many producers of such events.
"One challenge faced by outdoor community events is ensuring reliable and robust internet connectivity," said Events Officer of The Tasman Peninsula Feast, Julie King.
Here at PopUp, we believe that everyone deserves internet that doesn't suck and our company was founded on the idea that every event should have internet that works. So when Julie needed a way to connect Point of Sale, social media access, back-of-house and ticketing devices at this years feast, we were all ears.
Julie cleverly positioned 4 x Lite units across the outdoor site, to cover the vendors and entrance with each of the Lite's 70' radius range.
"The reliable connectivity of PopUp WiFi enhanced the overall experience for attendees, facilitating easy access to event information and helping organisers better engage with the community," said Julie.
What makes the PopUp WiFi so great for outdoor events in rural areas is the high-gain omni-directional antennas inside each case that work to pull as much signal as possible from the nearby cell towers. Paired with ultra-fast Peplink routers and Aruba APs, the result is super fast 5G/4G bonded speeds and reliability, even in areas with patchy coverage.
Thanks to Julie and her amazing production team for sharing these beautiful photos from the 2024 Tasman Peninsula Feast!
