Internet coverage for rural areas

If you live in the heart of Fremont, you’ll likely have options from cable, DSL, and fiber-optic internet providers. For those in rural areas or just outside Fremont, however, satellite or fixed wireless internet may be the best internet option.

HughesNet starting prices are significantly higher than average in Fremont at $64.99/mo. for speeds up to 25 Mbps.
