Details about the People’s Internet Package

Right now, the People’s Internet program has one major package with the following features:

Cost of subscription: Rp100,000 per 30 days.
Technology: 5G Fixed Wireless Access (FWA).
Internet speed: 100 Mbps at most.
Data limit: None.
Bonus: The first month is free to subscribe.
Equipment: You can rent a modem (CPE) for free during the whole subscription duration.

5G Open RAN technology gives it power

People’s Internet service uses 5G Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) technology on the 1.4 GHz frequency range. It also uses the Open Radio Access Network (Open RAN) architecture.

This method makes it easier to construct networks that are more flexible, cost-effective, and scalable. In particular, it supports places where there is not much fiber infrastructure.

PT Solusi Sinergi Digital Tbk, NTT Docomo, and NEC Corporation all work together to start the initiative. Additionally, the network stands as one of Indonesia’s first commercial deployments of Open RAN FWA at the 1.4 GHz frequency. This initiative is a big step forward for the country’s digital infrastructure.

The People’s Internet program is expected to speed up digital transformation and make internet access more fair. Through this project, millions of Indonesians will gain access to the internet at a low cost.
