Direct answer
Start with venue fibre, then add business 5G or eligible Starlink internet when it improves deployment or path diversity. Load-test the event network and failover before doors open.
Separate critical event internet and guest Wi-Fi
- Payments and registration
- Production and broadcast
- Exhibitor operations
- Staff and contractor access
- Guest Wi-Fi
- CCTV and safety systems
Test event internet before the audience arrives
Load-test access points, run real payment and registration flows, verify the backup path, confirm captive portal behaviour and keep an on-site escalation plan. “Up to” bandwidth is not an attendance plan.
