Overview
Globalgig is a trading brand of iGEM Communications and is headquartered in San Antonio, Texas. It describes itself as a managed security and network services provider for enterprises, selling internet, private networking, managed SD-WAN, 4G and 5G wireless connectivity for primary, backup and out-of-band access, IoT connectivity and SIM management, along with voice services. It lists an Asia Pacific wireless support line on an Australian 1300 number, and in earlier years sold mobile data plans in Australia.
Businesses review their connectivity for plenty of ordinary reasons: a contract coming to an end, a move to a new office, a site that needs a fixed connection rather than relying on mobile data, or simply wanting internet, backup and mobile from one Australian carrier with one bill and one team to call.
Summit Internet offers business nbn with a static IP included, Ethernet over fibre, 4G Backup with automatic failover, 4G Static IP services and business mobile SIM plans. In Melbourne and regional Victoria we also run our own fixed wireless network.
Summit Internet is an independent Australian carrier and is not affiliated with Globalgig or iGEM Communications.
How Summit Helps
-
A fixed primary connection for each site
Business nbn is available nationally, up to 2000/500 Mbps on full-fibre nbn, with a static IP included. Sites that need dedicated bandwidth can step up to Ethernet over fibre.
-
4G Backup that switches over by itself
If your primary link drops, Summit's 4G Backup fails over automatically to Australia's biggest mobile network, which covers 98.8% of the population. When the primary link returns it fails back automatically, so nobody has to touch the router.
-
4G Static IP for remote and temporary sites
Where a fixed line is not practical, a 4G service with a static IP keeps remote access, cameras and site equipment reachable at a known address.
-
Our own network, not a reseller layer
Summit builds, owns and operates its network, with Points of Presence in NEXTDC data centres. DDoS protection comes as standard.
-
Fixed wireless in Melbourne and regional Victoria
Across 500+ suburbs, Summit's fixed wireless delivers symmetric speeds from 10 Mbps up to 10 Gbps, installed in 10 business days or the first month is free. Check your address to see if it reaches you.
-
Business mobile on the same account
Summit's business mobile SIM plans sit alongside your internet services, so data, backup and mobile all appear on one bill.
-
Phones too, if you want them
If you are also reviewing voice, Summit offers a Hosted PBX from $10 per user per month and SIP trunks from 2 channels. Voice traffic is prioritised when your internet is also with Summit.
-
Built only for business
Summit does not sell residential services. Every product and every support conversation is about keeping a business connected.

We recently moved our dental practice over to Summit for phone services, and the experience has been excellent from start to finish. The team has been responsive, professional, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire setup process. The transition was smooth, any issues were addressed promptly, and communication was always clear and efficient. Reliable phones and internet are essential for a busy practice like ours, and Summit has delivered exactly that. A special thank you to Michael for his patience and ongoing assistance during the transition. Highly recommend Summit to any business looking for reliable service and great customer support.Read more

As a reseller, we primarily work with Summit’s 4G services and have been very impressed. The plans are affordable, flexible, and well suited to our customers—especially for internet failover solutions. The sales and support teams are responsive and genuinely helpful, which is why we’re proud to partner with Summit Internet. We happily recommend them.Read more

After working with another ISP for several months to deliver a critical internet service for a major international sporting event, we were ultimately advised that the required upgrade was unlikely to be completed prior to event week. This left us facing a significant risk to service delivery. After exhausting all other options (and a few sleepless nights) we came across Summit Internet. From the initial conversation, Allan immediately understood the severity of the situation and quickly engaged his technical delivery team. Michael “Radar” was on site within days to assess and finalise a solution. Despite challenging conditions, including large trees and other obstructions, he worked tirelessly to design and implement an alternative approach. Leveraging an adjacent building, a temporary NBN connection, and a wireless link into the comms room, the solution was delivered within 24 hours of the initial site visit. Not only was the outcome faster than expected, but it was also more cost effective and delivered higher speeds than originally promised by the previous ISP. Over the course of the event, the service handled terabytes of data and supported hundreds of concurrent users without a single speed or performance issue. I cannot thank Summit Internet, particularly Allan and Radar enough for their exceptional service, technical expertise, and commitment to delivering under pressure. Highly recommended.Read more

Summit internet recently set my small business up with a local land line number and a soft phone that runs off an app on my mobile - getting my personal phone number off the internet and being able to distinguish between business and personal calls is a game changer. Whole process took less than a week, and is super cost effective. Highly recommend.Read more
