👇 Check what's available at your address We build fiber internet infrastructure differently.

Anthem Broadband makes internet easy in Idaho, Eastern Oregon, Northern Nevada, and Montana, Serving over 19-thousand customers, Anthem Broadband is the largest, locally owned and operated internet provider in Idaho, with over 200 towers and five business locations to better serve our communities. Instead of using a GPON, light splitting method, we use Active Ethernet. With Active Ethernet, every subscriber gets their own strand of fiber for a direct, point-to-point connection! It is a more costly infrastructure, but we believe in building for the future. Having your own strand of fiber allows us to quickly and easily upgrade services as new technology arises without needing to tear up existing lines or damaging private property. In addition, Anthem Broadband connects all its fiber networks to a completely redundant ring, with access points in both Salt Lake and Seattle, making it one of the most robust and redundant systems available, ensuring the most uptime and reliable speeds. Anthem Broadband is also extremely skilled in the fixed wireless industry! We have over 23 years of experience and provide the greatest service and reliability by connecting all our wireless towers to the same, redundant fiber backbone. The Anthem Broadband network is also managed very closely to certify that no access point reaches more than 80 percent utilization, which means you do not slow down just because a neighbor got online. Anthem Broadband has been serving local communities since the turn of the century and we plan on being around for years to come, because taking care of our friends and neighbors is what drives us to keep growing, keep innovating, and ensuring our area receives the connectivity it needs to compete in today’s society.

Thank you, Mini-Cassia Chamber of Commerce, for having us! 🙌

Kevin Neal from our team shared how Anthem Broadband reaches homes across Burley, Rupert and the surrounding area. Fiber is a great technology, but running it to every home out here often doesn’t make sense economically. So we’ve built more towers to get closer to you, and we build backup connections into the network, because internet is becoming a core utility.

We’re proud to work with local partners and businesses here in the valley.

Elko, here’s one for the history buffs! 🦌🚂

There are a few stories about how Elko got its name, and the most widely accepted one is almost too simple: a Central Pacific Railroad official who loved animal names took “Elk” and added an “O.”

The town was founded in 1868 as the railroad came through, and Elko grew up as a place to stop, resupply and move freight.

What Elko history should we dig into next? Tell us in the comments 👇

Proud to serve Elko and Spring Creek for the last 5 years. 💙

Working from home and tired of frozen video calls? Here are 3 fixes worth trying, and two of them are free. 💻

✅ Plug your computer into the router with an Ethernet cable
✅ Put the kids’ devices on a guest network, and use your router’s priority setting (QoS) to put your work computer first, or limit the guest network’s speed
✅ Move the router out of the closet to an open, central spot. Bigger or multi-level home? A mesh system or extender helps reach every room

Tried all three and still freezing? It may be your plan, not your Wi-Fi. Anthem Broadband offers no data caps, no credit checks, a 3-year price lock and 24/7 local support.

Which room in your house has the worst Wi-Fi? Tell us below 👇

Got a gamer in the house? 🎮 Then you’ve probably heard this one: “I didn’t lose, the internet froze!”

Sometimes they’re right. When everyone’s streaming at once, the connection can slow down right when it matters.

Here are a few quick checks to try at home:
✅ Plug the console or PC into the router with an ethernet cable
✅ Check speed and ping in the evening, when everyone’s online
✅ If it only slows down when the house is busy, your router or your plan may be the issue

Anthem Broadband offers no data caps, no credit checks, a 3-year price lock and 24/7 local support, plus a 1 Gig fiber plan in select fiber areas.

Who’s the biggest gamer in your house? Tell us below 👇

Eastern Idaho families, here’s your sign to shut the laptop this weekend 🐻🐺
The Grizzly & Wolf Discovery Center in West Yellowstone is open 365 days a year, the grizzlies don’t hibernate, and one admission covers two days in a row. Put on a sweater and make the drive. Your kids will remember this way more than another weekend of screens.
We’ll keep the internet handled at home while you go touch grass 💙

Ever wonder how Twin Falls got started? 🌾

In 1900, it was sagebrush. Then the Carey Act let private companies bring water to desert land, and in 1903 work began on Milner Dam on the Snake River. By 1905, canals were carrying water across the desert, and farms and families followed.

Within a few years, thousands of people called the area home. Every field you drive past today is downstream of those early decisions.

Does your family go back to the early Twin Falls tract days? Share your stories below 👇

Remember SafeLink Internet? 👋

Long before we were Anthem Broadband, SafeLink got started right here in Rupert in 1997. Our founder, Brad, wanted a safe link to the internet as it was just coming out. That's where the name came from.

In 2020, team members who started out as employees bought the company, and we're still proudly based in Rupert.

Were you a SafeLink customer? Share your memories (and your old email address, if you still remember it 😄) in the comments 👇

Who remembers waiting on dial-up? 📞💻

When we started offering wireless internet, it ran at 256 kilobits, about five times faster than dial-up, and that felt fast!

A lot has changed since then. Wireless still connects areas where fiber is tough to run, and in places like Elko and Spring Creek, Nevada, we've built fiber to about 14,000 addresses.

What was your first internet connection, and how long did a song take to download? 😄 👇

Did you know the Rupert, Burley and Heyburn area had electric power back in 1909? ⚡

That year, the power plant at Minidoka Dam came online, the first federal hydroelectric plant in the Pacific Northwest. Its extra power went to local towns and farms, while most of rural America was still in the dark.

Most farms in the rest of the country waited until the Rural Electrification Act of 1936. That's 27 years later!

Does your family have stories about the early days of the Minidoka Project? We'd love to hear them 👇

Have you ever driven what Island Park calls the "Longest Main Street in America"? 🛣️

Island Park, Idaho stretches 33 miles along Highway 20, and in some spots the whole town is barely wider than the road.

Why? Back in 1947, Idaho only allowed liquor sales inside city limits. So the lodge owners drew the town's borders around the highway to take in the lodges along it.

What's your favorite Island Park memory: fishing, snowmobiling, or a stop at one of the lodges along the way? 👇
