Help Us Bring Faster Internet Service

Take Action Now
To Help Bring Faster Internet Service To Comptche

We need you to do two things right away:

  • 1: SIGN UP FOR FURTHER REACH: Please go to the Further Reach website ASAP at https://furtherreach.net/signup.html and sign up for service.  This is quick — you will be asked for specific location info, which rate tier you want, and to pin-point your exact location on a digital map.  You will also be asked to digitally sign a user agreement – don’t worry – please just go ahead and do this. The Agreement is technically binding when signed but its scope is quite limited until you have service. For instance, the agreement stipulates how they will protect your data, and grants them permission to survey your property to see if there is service. There are no financial commitments until you accept an installation appointment. Even then it is only a month to month contract (no lock-in) and a 30-day money-back guarantee. So please don’t hesitate to sign and submit. It is just the first step.

  • 2: FILL OUT OUR SURVEY IN SURVEY MONKEY:  Since any ISP will also want the same kind of information Further Reach is requesting, we very much need you to ALSO go to this link and fill out our short survey that we can use to provide information to Etheric and other potential ISPs:  https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/H6GMCPD

Thank You,
