Why Has Rural Salinas Been Left Behind?
For too long, families in rural Salinas have faced a frustrating reality: unreliable internet—or no broadband at all.
While cities enjoy fiber and high-speed options, many Salinas residents are stuck with:
Aging DSL
That crawls during peak hours
Expensive Satellite
With data caps and weather outages
Spotty Cellular
That fails when you need it most
Zero Options
From major providers who ignore rural areas
This digital divide isn’t just inconvenient—it impacts your family’s future. From kids struggling with online homework to parents missing work calls, inadequate internet holds rural communities back.
It’s time for a change.

Local customer service
“Etheric Networks is a Fantastic Internet Service Provider! We have had Etheric at our home in the San Jose Evergreen foothills for the last 5+ years and have been VERY pleased, especially when compared to all the other ISPs we have tried over the years. Our Etheric internet UP/DOWN speeds and latency is outstanding for our family of 4, even with 2 gamers in the house and working from home video calls going on simultaneously. Our line-of-sight internet service with Etheric has been so dependable that we decided to cancel our copper wired home phone service and just use Wifi calling (we do not have a good cell tower near our home). Customer Service/Tech Support at Etheric always answers the phone and is very helpful to resolve any issue we have quickly. I highly recommend Etheric Networks!“

Common Questions About Rural Internet Service
How is this different than satellite internet?
Unlike satellite, our fixed wireless has no data caps, much lower latency (better for video calls), and isn’t affected by weather. You get consistent speeds 24/7.
Do I need a line of sight for your tower?
Yes, but we conduct a free site survey to determine the best placement. In many cases, we can work around obstacles with proper antenna positioning.
How quickly can you install service?
Once we build the tower in your area, installation typically takes 2-3 hours. No trenching, no waiting months for permits.
What about support?
You’ll get 24/7 support from our Bay Area team—real people who answer the phone, not overseas call centers.
