IWantWireless Ltd.

All services are restored for DeBolt, Crooked Creek and area. Thanks again for your understanding today 🙏🏻

To keep you in the loop about the cause of the service outages around DeBolt and Crooked Creek areas this morning, this is due to a vandal climbing our main tower in Debolt, and purposely damaging our equipment. This person has been identified and arrested. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this is causing. Our crew will continue working to replace this equipment, and we’ll keep you all updated here, and via email, with our progress.

Working from home in rural Alberta shouldn't mean apologizing for your internet every time you're on a video call.

Yet that's the reality for too many remote workers stuck with unreliable connections and providers who don't prioritize rural service.

Here's what reliable remote work internet actually looks like:

✓ Video calls that don't freeze mid-sentence
✓ File uploads that don't take hours
✓ Consistent speeds during business hours
✓ Local support when you need it, not next week

Your home office deserves the same connectivity as any city office.

If your current internet is holding your work back, let's fix that.

We've been reading through all your comments and messages this week, and honestly? We're feeling pretty lucky.

"They are the goat when it comes to internet and service."

That's from one of you—and it's just one of dozens of messages we've gotten lately. The thank-yous, the shout-outs, the stories about finally being able to work from home or run your business without the internet cutting out every twenty minutes.

This is exactly why we do what we do. Not for some corporate growth target, but for the people in our communities who just need their connection to work—and to know there's a real person on the other end when it doesn't.

So thank you. For trusting us, for spreading the word, for letting us be part of keeping Northern Alberta connected.

We're proud to serve you, and we don't take it for granted.

Called at 10am. Back online by 12pm.

That's what happened when Dave from St. Isidore had an issue last week. No ticket queue. No "we'll get to you when we can." Just a real person answering the phone, a local tech who knew exactly where Dave was, and same-day service that actually happened.

We're not calling from a desk three provinces away. We're here. We live here. We work here. And when you need us, we're a phone call away.

That's the IWW difference.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Love travels faster,
When we connect you!

To us love means answering when you call...without transferring you six times. You know, basic relationship stuff. Happy Valentine's Day!

3 buildings. 40 acres. Zero dead zones.

When the Johnsons called us, they had internet in their house, barely. The shop had nothing. The barn had nothing. Running a modern farming operation without connectivity across your whole property? That's not workable.

We did a full property assessment, mapped out coverage needs, and installed a system that covers their house, shop, and barn. Now they can:

✓ Process equipment diagnostics in the shop
✓ Monitor security cameras from anywhere on the property
✓ Run their farm management software without driving back to the house
✓ Actually use their internet when and where they need it

This is what whole-property coverage looks like. Not a one-size-fits-all package. Not a 'good luck with that' from a call center. Just a real assessment, a real solution, and real results.

If you're running a farm or acreage and your internet doesn't cover what you need, let's talk. We do this every day.

"Does cold weather slow down my internet?"

We get this question a lot in February. Short answer: No.

Cold itself doesn't slow your connection speed. What matters is:

✓ Equipment and infrastructure quality (some things weren't built for Northern Alberta's temperature swings)
✓ Proper installation (weatherproofing matters at -45°)
✓ Local techs who can respond fast when issues do pop up

Our service was built to endure cold and snow, that's why our customers stay connected not matter the temperature, while others are stuck waiting for a service ticket to get escalated.

Want internet that actually works in February? Let's talk.

Before IWW, I was constantly apologizing on Zoom calls. 'Sorry, can you repeat that? My internet cut out again.' It was embarrassing and costing me clients.
Now, crystal clear video calls and I can actually run my business from home.

This is Sarah from Manning. She switched to IWW eight months ago and hasn't looked back.

Reliable internet isn't a luxury when your livelihood depends on it. It's a necessity.

If you're tired of apologizing for your internet, let's talk. We serve 47 communities from Manning to Little Smoky, and Bezanson to High Prairie, and we'd love to help you stay connected.

🔒 SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS: Let's talk about the threat you're ignoring.

Quick quiz:

When was the last time you thought about malware protection for your business network?

If the answer is "never" or "isn't that handled automatically?" - you're not alone. And you may be at risk.

The reality:

→ Small businesses are targeted MORE than large corporations
→ Ransomware attacks have increased 150% in rural areas
→ One breach can cost thousands in downtime and data loss
→ Most small businesses think "it won't happen to me"

Until it does.

Here's what most internet providers won't tell you:

Network security should be STANDARD, not optional. Not an add-on. Not an extra fee. Standard.

Every IWantWireless business connection includes:

✓ Built-in malware protection
✓ Network threat monitoring
✓ Automatic security updates
✓ Protection that actually works

No extra cost. No complex setup. Just smart security that runs in the background.

Because protecting your business shouldn't be optional.

Your customer data. Your financial systems. Your operations. They all depend on your internet connection. Shouldn't that connection be secure?

How secure is your business network right now?
