NDMA provides WiFiGY services to Government buildings and other public spaces. This wireless network is intended to be open for all to use. If NDMA provides a wireless service that is password protected, you will be unable to change that password since the device is managed by NDMA. Instead, create a ticket on the Help Desk platform by changing the issue type to Service Request.

FAQs LTE

NDMA’s LTE connected customers are provided with three devices for service delivery. These are the modem/antenna (also referred to as a CPE) usually mounted on the roof of the location which will connect to one of our LTE Towers and receive the signal, a power over ethernet adapter (POE) which provides power to the CPE and provides a port for the connection of a wireless access point (also referred to as WiFi router) that will distribute the service wirelessly to your devices.

The NDMA will provide and install the CPE and POE for each customer. If WiFiGY service is delivered, NDMA will provide a wireless access point. However, for paid internet service, you must provide your own wireless access point.

The devices do not come with a backup battery or surge protector, however, the NDMA encourages you to install such devices.

The first step is to verify that the devices are receiving power by looking for any lights on the wireless access point and the POE.

The second step is to ensure cables are connected correctly and securely.

The third step is to perform a power cycle by unplugging the power cable from the POE, waiting for a few seconds and plugging it back in.

If you are still without service after the power cycle, you should then create a ticket on our Help Desk platform and one of our technicians will contact you to provide support.

If you would like to relocate the service, a request would have to be made on the Help Desk platform.

FAQs - Fibre

The first step is to verify that the devices are receiving power by looking for any status lights on the router.

The second step is to ensure cables are connected correctly and securely. Check for any lights on the WAN port or fibre port of the router. The fibre optic patch cord is yellow.

The third step is to perform a power cycle by unplugging the power cable from the device or turning off the switch, waiting for a few seconds and plugging it back in.

If you are still without service after the power cycle, you should then create a ticket on our Help Desk platform and one of our technicians will contact you to provide support.

You can check your public IP by typing ipjaguar.com in google or “Whats My IP”. If the result (which is your public IP) starts with 168.232.144 or 168.232.145 or 168.232.146 or 168.232.147 then you are using NDMA’s internet service.

Ensure that the speed test is done by connecting a cable directly to the router from a computer/laptop.

Perform a speed test using a reliable online tool (https://www.speedtest.net/ or speed.govnet.gy) to determine your current internet speed.

If the speed is significantly lower than expected contact NDMA technical support.

  1. Check if any other device can connect to the WiFi network.
  2. If yes, restart your device.
  3. Alternatively, try forgetting and rejoining the WiFi.
  4. In some cases, your device might only be operating on the 2.4GHz frequency and the access point is broadcasting on the 5GHz frequency. Ensure your device is compatible with the broadcasting frequency of the wireless access point.
