The primary Internet connection, where there is a reliable and preferably high-bandwidth Internet connection, is called a Hub. Subscribers within an initial radius of the hub can access the Internet on a standard real-time wireless Local Area Network (wLAN). Depending on the population size and concentration, this wLAN can be expanded into a real-time wireless Wide Area Network (wWAN) up to 5-15 km.

The unique capability of FMS's technology is its ability to distribute the Internet connection's bandwidth to the last 100km – the Village Area Network (VAN) – with relatively small infrastructure costs. The same VAN-APX access points can be mounted on any vehicle (buses, motorcycles, boats…) which physically transports data to/from surrounding rural areas within a day's reach of the Internet connection.
