Dedicated fiber, engineered to your needs.

The solution set

What we actually build

Four core services. Most business networks use some combination of them. Tell us what you need to connect and we'll recommend the right mix.

DIA

Dedicated Internet Access

A connection to the internet reserved entirely for you, at a guaranteed speed and backed by a service level agreement. The same speed in both directions, able to burst higher when you need it, and delivered with your own IP addresses.

For: your primary connection, where an outage costs real money.

EPL

Ethernet Private Line

A private line between two of your locations. The whole connection is yours, with no other traffic on it, which makes it the simple answer for backups, storage, and anything you would rather keep off the public internet.

For: two locations, full separation, consistent performance.

EVPL

Ethernet Virtual Private Line

A private link where one connection at each location carries several separate services, each with its own bandwidth. You pay for a single connection per site and still keep the traffic apart.

For: a main office connecting to several branches.

EVLAN

Ethernet Virtual LAN (E-LAN)

All of your locations on one private network, each able to reach the others directly. Add a location and it simply joins the network, with no rebuilding of links between every site.

For: organizations that want every location on one network.

Who we build for

From one storefront to the whole state

The same network and the same engineers, scaled to your needs.

Multi-Site

Organizations with locations across Maine that want one network instead of five separate accounts.

Public Sector

Municipalities, schools, libraries, and healthcare, including E-Rate and grant-funded projects.

Carrier & Wholesale

Transport, backhaul, and capacity on GWI-owned fiber for providers who need to reach Maine.

Fiber internet built for Maine businesses

Our own fiber, plus statewide reach

Where we own the network, we build, splice, and repair it ourselves. Where we don't, we extend through partners and manage the whole connection for you.

Engineers you can reach

You talk with the people who will actually turn up your service.

Since 1994

One of Maine's first internet providers, still Maine-owned and still independent.

Open access and net neutrality

We treat all traffic equally and we never sell your data.

Get in touch

Tell us what your business needs

Every business network is different, so we price each one rather than publish a rate card. Tell us what you need and someone from our business team will follow up with options, usually within one business day.
