The Rural Internet Problem
Western Maine deserves better than DSL and satellite
Magalloway and Upton sit on the far western edge of Maine, next to the Umbagog and Errol corridor. Fiber buildout is slow on dirt roads and seasonal properties. Satellite comes with high prices and weather issues. Netafy's tower network already serves this border region from the same infrastructure that covers northern New Hampshire.
No Fiber? No Problem.
GigTier fixed wireless delivers 50–400 Mbps from fiber-connected towers without waiting for someone to run cable down your road. Request service and we will follow up about your specific location.
Built for the Border Lakes
Non-line-of-sight equipment handles hills, tree cover, and the terrain around Magalloway and Upton that older wireless systems often miss.
Year-Round Reliability
Ice, snow, and mud season are normal here. Unlike satellite dishes that lose signal in heavy snow, fixed wireless is built to stay up through western Maine winters.
