Frequently Asked Questions
What is, and how do I carry out a traceroute?
A traceroute is a way of viewing the path of your connection along the internet with all the relevant stops from your device, through your home network, through our network, out to the internet, and to your intended destination (Netflix, Zoom meeting, website, VPN, server you are trying to access) so that you can see where bottlenecks (delays) might be happening.
Here is the process:
How do I run a traceroute? – Press the Windows key + R to open the Run window. – Enter cmd and press Enter to open a Command Prompt. – Enter tracert, a space, then the IP address or web address for the destination site (for example: tracertwww.google.com). – Press Enter.
Please let us know via email what you get on running ‘tracert’
Can multiple devices be connected to our connection?
Multiple devices connected from your internal home or business network are connected directly to our radio, creating a security risk for your equipment. The devices should be connected to your router so that your devices fall within the security parameters of your router. Without your router, your device type and access information are discoverable by the public on the internet.
How do I make sure that all my devices are connected to my router and that my router is connected to the Etheric connection?
The cable from the antenna should go into the POE port of the Etheric POE, and the cable from the LAN port of the POE should go into the WAN/Internet port of your router. All other internal cables should connect to the LAN ports of your router. Any mis-cabling here will cause issues
If you have a Switch, it should be connected after the Router and not directly into the Etheric POE (Connecting a switch directly to the POE is not permitted by the SLA – Service Level Agreement)
Check if your Router is in Router mode or DHCP/NAT mode (If Apple Extreme router) and not in Bridge mode
Please let us know how it goes, or reach out to us if you need further explanation or assistance.
How come towers suffer from power outages when you say that you have backup power?
Local commercial power can sometimes bring down a specific tower, even when we take into consideration that we have a power backup for every tower.
The reasons are the following:
Sometimes, unfortunately, our backup power system can fail altogether as backup systems are processes and equipment that need to get going and can fail randomly, just like any other device or process.
Our backup power can be battery, solar, and fuel generator-based. Back-up is designed to sense the loss of power and then enable the backup system to fire up and then move the power source of the tower to the backup system. When the commercial power grid is restored (usually PGE), then our backup system will back off once, move the power back to the main grid, and power off the backup power system. In some cases, the commercial power will once again fail, and the process will be repeated. If this happens enough times, our backup system can fail.
We are constantly trying to improve our failsafe systems, but we truly appreciate your patience during such service disruptions.
How does a bad signal affect my connection, and how can it be corrected?
A bad signal is a low signal on the radio. Our radios use their own WiFi capability to connect to the tower or, in some cases, to other antennas at neighbor’s properties. A loose dish mount/defective antenna/branch or tree may be blocking the line of sight, or simply a misaligned antenna can all create a low signal that will translate to slow speeds or intermittent disconnections of your service.
In most cases, a dispatch with one of your technicians is required so we can assess the problem and take the necessary steps before the connection fails altogether.
If you see any reference from us as to whether your connection fails from a degrading low signal, please get ahold of us so that we can coordinate the needed dispatch.
How do you run speed tests to check on your connection?
At times, your connection might suffer from slow speeds, and in some cases, speeds can be so slow that your connection appears to have brief disconnections.
It is extremely helpful if you are able to test for speeds so that we can get a specific idea of how slow the speeds are from your side.
Here is the information on how to test your connection for speeds:
If you performed a speed test during the slowdown, please feel free to share the results via email.
If you haven’t tested for speeds, please feel free to search the internet for “Internet Speed Testing.”
It would be ideal if you test during your peak working times, and with all devices offline so that we can have a comparison of speeds during your peak and quiet base times. We can only test speeds from our network to your radio, so your speed tests will help us sort out speeds through your router and its WiFi and through to our connection.
These are some of the more popular and well-known sites for testing speeds. Please visit one and engage the website to do a speed test.
You may also go to our Etheric Support page, and on the left side (a bit lower from the top), you will see a SPEED TEST button. https://www.ethericnetworks.com/support/
Please let us know your speed test results and how often they show as slow. Is it a daily problem? A couple of times a week?

As part of our ongoing commitment to delivering superior internet connectivity across the Bay Area, Etheric Networks has completed a significant infrastructure upgrade to our Los Gatos tower. This enhancement represents a significant step in our mission to provide reliable, high-speed internet service to the Los Gatos community and surrounding areas.
Enhanced Network Infrastructure
The Los Gatos tower upgrade focused on several critical network infrastructure components. We’ve implemented new access points (APs) and advanced radio equipment, substantially increasing our tower’s capacity to serve more customers while maintaining the high-speed, low-latency connections our customers expect.

Network Performance Improvements
The tower upgrade delivers measurable improvements to our network’s performance capabilities. By implementing the latest wireless networking technologies, we’ve significantly enhanced our ability to provide consistent, high-speed connectivity even during periods of peak demand.
These improvements translate directly to better service for our customers through:
Increased network capacity to handle growing bandwidth requirements
Enhanced signal strength and coverage in previously challenging areas
Greater network stability during high-traffic periods
Improved redundancy systems for uninterrupted service
Emergency Preparedness
A critical component of this upgrade involved enhancing our emergency power systems. Similar to our recent improvements in Hollister, we’ve implemented robust backup power solutions to ensure service continuity during power outages. This investment reflects our commitment to maintaining reliable internet access for our customers, even during challenging conditions.
Technical Architecture
The upgraded tower now features an enhanced network architecture that integrates seamlessly with our existing Bay Area infrastructure. This integration is critical as it strengthens our network backbone, providing improved connectivity options and greater redundancy.
Key architectural improvements include:
Enhanced backbone connectivity for improved data throughput
Advanced routing algorithms for optimal traffic management
Upgraded networking equipment for improved signal processing
Enhanced monitoring systems for proactive maintenance
Looking Forward
This infrastructure upgrade represents more than improved technology—it demonstrates our ongoing commitment to providing the Los Gatos community with the highest-quality internet service possible. As the demand for reliable, high-speed internet grows, we’re positioning our network to meet current and future needs.
The Los Gatos tower upgrade is part of our broader initiative to enhance network infrastructure across our entire service area. By continually investing in our network, we ensure our customers have access to the robust, reliable internet connectivity they need for business and personal use.
Service Availability
Residents and businesses in the Los Gatos area interested in learning more about our enhanced service capabilities are encouraged to check availability at their locations.
Our team can provide detailed information about service options and help determine the best solution for their specific needs.

Justin Morgan
Site Systems Analyst
“We researched options from dozens of providers, and Etheric Networks was not just the best service provider we found who could deliver a service that met our minimum requirements, they were the only provider. Bandwidth in Brisbane is scarce, and investing in Etheric Networks to bolster their offerings will attract more and more businesses to the area.”
Evan Jones
CEO
“The Etheric EVPL has worked great, with no downtime since installation. My client is very satisfied, and I would not hesitate to recommend this kind of solution again. I’ve always counted on Etheric to bring internet to hard-to-reach places and appreciated that they already had access points on both of the towers my client needed to connect. Installation was so easy and quick – pretty refreshing after what we’d been through. Thanks, Etheric, you saved the day!”
Barry Silberstein

All of our offices now work together seamlessly, and we couldn’t be happier with the service.”

“Redwood Electric Group has been using Etheric Networks for years now. Their customer service has been great. They are quick to respond to check out the job sites and the equipment arrives quickly and the coordination with the tech has always been efficient. The internet speed is working great for our foremen and as to date, we haven’t had any issues with their service. We recommend Etheric Networks for other construction job site projects.”
Patty Billings
“I am so impressed with Etheric Networks. Our testing grounds require rock solid internet and low latency. Our existing provider could not keep up with our bandwidth needs, and the service was becoming unreliable. We didn’t know where to turn! The way Etheric responded to our call for help told me that this is the kind of project they like best. To learn that they could deliver a super fast, low latency FCC licensed link in just days was such a relief. I can’t thank Etheric enough for solving so many problems so quickly! ”
Lynn Tao
Commercial Programs Director
“The circuit has performed just as we expected and there have been no problems using it. I would recommend Etheric as a supplier to my peers looking for connectivity solutions.”

First, we’ll conduct a free site survey to assess your location’s suitability and determine the best equipment placement. This step guarantees ideal service quality, as confirmed by numerous customer testimonials.
The installation typically takes 2-3 hours and is performed by our professional technicians. They’ll install a high-grade radio and antenna at your property, along with a Power over Ethernet (PoE) device.
Installation requirements include potential roof access for the best signal reception. We use non-penetrating mounts and weatherproofing to protect your property.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is, and how do I carry out a traceroute?
A traceroute is a way of viewing the path of your connection along the internet with all the relevant stops from your device, through your home network, through our network, out to the internet, and to your intended destination (Netflix, Zoom meeting, website, VPN, server you are trying to access) so that you can see where bottlenecks (delays) might be happening.
Here is the process:
How do I run a traceroute? – Press the Windows key + R to open the Run window. – Enter cmd and press Enter to open a Command Prompt. – Enter tracert, a space, then the IP address or web address for the destination site (for example: tracertwww.google.com). – Press Enter.
Please let us know via email what you get on running ‘tracert’
Can multiple devices be connected to our connection?
Multiple devices connected from your internal home or business network are connected directly to our radio, creating a security risk for your equipment. The devices should be connected to your router so that your devices fall within the security parameters of your router. Without your router, your device type and access information are discoverable by the public on the internet.
How do I make sure that all my devices are connected to my router and that my router is connected to the Etheric connection?
The cable from the antenna should go into the POE port of the Etheric POE, and the cable from the LAN port of the POE should go into the WAN/Internet port of your router. All other internal cables should connect to the LAN ports of your router. Any mis-cabling here will cause issues
If you have a Switch, it should be connected after the Router and not directly into the Etheric POE (Connecting a switch directly to the POE is not permitted by the SLA – Service Level Agreement)
Check if your Router is in Router mode or DHCP/NAT mode (If Apple Extreme router) and not in Bridge mode
Please let us know how it goes, or reach out to us if you need further explanation or assistance.
How come towers suffer from power outages when you say that you have backup power?
Local commercial power can sometimes bring down a specific tower, even when we take into consideration that we have a power backup for every tower.
The reasons are the following:
Sometimes, unfortunately, our backup power system can fail altogether as backup systems are processes and equipment that need to get going and can fail randomly, just like any other device or process.
Our backup power can be battery, solar, and fuel generator-based. Back-up is designed to sense the loss of power and then enable the backup system to fire up and then move the power source of the tower to the backup system. When the commercial power grid is restored (usually PGE), then our backup system will back off once, move the power back to the main grid, and power off the backup power system. In some cases, the commercial power will once again fail, and the process will be repeated. If this happens enough times, our backup system can fail.
We are constantly trying to improve our failsafe systems, but we truly appreciate your patience during such service disruptions.
How does a bad signal affect my connection, and how can it be corrected?
A bad signal is a low signal on the radio. Our radios use their own WiFi capability to connect to the tower or, in some cases, to other antennas at neighbor’s properties. A loose dish mount/defective antenna/branch or tree may be blocking the line of sight, or simply a misaligned antenna can all create a low signal that will translate to slow speeds or intermittent disconnections of your service.
In most cases, a dispatch with one of your technicians is required so we can assess the problem and take the necessary steps before the connection fails altogether.
If you see any reference from us as to whether your connection fails from a degrading low signal, please get ahold of us so that we can coordinate the needed dispatch.
How do you run speed tests to check on your connection?
At times, your connection might suffer from slow speeds, and in some cases, speeds can be so slow that your connection appears to have brief disconnections.
It is extremely helpful if you are able to test for speeds so that we can get a specific idea of how slow the speeds are from your side.
Here is the information on how to test your connection for speeds:
If you performed a speed test during the slowdown, please feel free to share the results via email.
If you haven’t tested for speeds, please feel free to search the internet for “Internet Speed Testing.”
It would be ideal if you test during your peak working times, and with all devices offline so that we can have a comparison of speeds during your peak and quiet base times. We can only test speeds from our network to your radio, so your speed tests will help us sort out speeds through your router and its WiFi and through to our connection.
These are some of the more popular and well-known sites for testing speeds. Please visit one and engage the website to do a speed test.
You may also go to our Etheric Support page, and on the left side (a bit lower from the top), you will see a SPEED TEST button. https://www.ethericnetworks.com/support/
Please let us know your speed test results and how often they show as slow. Is it a daily problem? A couple of times a week?
