If we cover your address, a local tech mounts a small antenna outside and sets up your WiFi inside a week. Standard install is free. If we don't reach you yet, we'll add you to the list and call when a new tower goes up nearby.

What runs through Brent.

Same network engineering everywhere we serve. Built for Alabama, not for Boston.

  • Alabama-first routing

    Your connection stays close to home first. We hand traffic off in Montgomery, at Alabama's own internet hub, instead of dragging every click through Atlanta before it comes back. Shorter trip. Less nonsense. Better internet.

  • Fiber and wireless, mixed.

    Fiber breaks easily out here. So we mix fiber and wireless backhaul across the network. Bandwidth from one, low latency from the other, and no Cletus with a shovel can take it all down at once.

  • Up when the grid's not

    Battery backup on every site. Generators on the critical ones, with more going in as we upgrade. We're continuously hardening the network against Alabama's flakey power grid. The severe-weather feeds in Lightwave LINK stay live.

  • Smooth Zoom. Smooth gaming.

    LibreQOS runs on every Lightwave tower. It shapes traffic in real time and kills bufferbloat, so your call stays smooth even when somebody's pulling down a huge game in the next room.

Brent questions, answered.

  • We're in Brent, not Centreville. Is it the same service?
    Same service, same crew, same price. Brent and Centreville share tower coverage and the same installers. The Cahaba River doesn’t divide our network.
  • Is the Walmart corridor and downtown Brent covered?
    Yes. The stretch along Highway 25 through Brent, city hall, and the Walmart shopping area are all in active coverage. A number of Brent businesses are already on the network.
  • Does Bibb County High get any special treatment?
    Teachers and school staff qualify for our essential worker discount on every plan, with no expiration. Students don’t qualify directly, but if a parent in the household is an essential worker, the discount applies to the whole house.
  • Storms knock out the cable up here every spring. How is Lightwave different?
    That’s exactly why we built wireless. No aerial drop to your house, no buried cable for a backhoe to find, no copper for thieves. The tower stays online on battery when the grid goes down.
