About Etheric Networks
We invest in our network and are committed to collaborating with our clients to distribute robust and reliable broadband to everyone within our coverage areas.
We are problem solvers at heart!
Our Story
Founded in 2003, Etheric Networks, Inc. provides custom broadband services through a combination of fixed wireless and fiber technologies. Our private dark fiber ring encircles the Bay Area and is the foundation of our redundant microwave and fiber network backbone. Etheric delivers a dedicated, local broadband resource for business and residential customers in the Bay Area. We’ve built our reputation on bringing the Internet to under-served and difficult-to-reach areas.
Etheric serves residential and business customers across 10 counties in the San Francisco Bay Area, including Fortune 100 businesses, construction companies, marinas, local government and HOA communities. Some of Silicon Valley’s most notable residents are Etheric customers.
Hybrid Fiber and Fixed Wireless Advantages
Etheric’s fixed wireless network delivers high-speed internet to homes and businesses throughout the Bay Area, especially in locations where traditional providers struggle to reach effectively.
Hassle-Free Implementation
Fixed wireless offers the fastest path to reliable internet connectivity. Instead of costly trenching or laying cable infrastructure, we install wireless base stations that serve entire neighborhoods. Any location with clear line of sight to our base stations can access high-speed internet immediately. Etheric’s base stations provide coverage throughout the Bay Area – check availability at your address here.
Access in Remote Areas
Fixed wireless internet reaches remote and rural areas where traditional cable and DSL services are unavailable or unreliable. Our wireless infrastructure doesn’t depend on extensive ground cables, making it cost-effective to serve challenging locations with difficult terrain. Whether you’re in the beautiful hills or at a waterfront marina, we can likely provide the connectivity you need.
High-Speed Connections
Fixed wireless internet speeds range from 100 Mbps to 1 Gbps depending on your specific needs and location. Our technology delivers much faster speeds and lower latency than mobile broadband and satellite connections, making it a superior option for businesses and homes that need reliable, high-performance internet access.
Increased Reliability
Our experienced wireless engineers design custom solutions that work with your local terrain and environmental conditions to minimize weather interference. Your internet connection remains stable as long as your receiver maintains line of sight to our base station, making fixed wireless technology ideal for mission-critical business operations and demanding residential use.
We are Locally Owned
We are locally owned, locally operated, and locally invested in the Bay Area’s digital future. Since founding Etheric in 2003, we’ve built our network right here in our hometown, creating jobs and keeping our technology investments in the community. Our advanced fixed wireless technology serves customers in the Bay Area—from bustling urban centers to remote locations that out-of-state providers overlook.
We are building enterprise-class precision-engineered internet that is optimized to minimize pollution and energy use while guaranteeing meaningful choices to our neighbors. By engineering reliable broadband solutions and deploying them rapidly using scalable, standards-based technologies, we give our community a product they love backed by the best local service possible.
We invest continuously in our network and are committed to collaborating with our clients to deliver robust and reliable broadband to everyone within our coverage areas. As your local provider, we’re not just delivering internet; we’re building the digital infrastructure our community deserves, one neighbor at a time. We are problem solvers at heart, and this is our home.
