Have you ever been left stranded without an internet connection during a storm or major outage like a fiber cut or tower failure? The world can feel so much smaller. In those moments, losing internet access is more than an inconvenience—it can become a real problem.
The Real Risks of NOT Having Reliable Internet
During severe weather or infrastructure outages, the internet often becomes a lifeline. When fiber lines are cut or networks go down, customers can be left without:
- Critical medical access – Many people rely on connected medical devices, telehealth services, or the ability to quickly reach emergency information. Losing internet during a medical crisis can be frightening and dangerous.
- Timely news and emergency updates – When storms, wildfires, or power outages occur, online news and local alerts are often the fastest way to get accurate, real-time information.
- Connection to loved ones – In stressful situations, being able to communicate with family, friends, or neighbors provides reassurance and coordination when it matters most.
When traditional wired networks fail, it’s not just streaming and work-from-home that stop—it’s your connection to the outside world.
Why Fiber Cuts and Storms Cause Outages
Fiber and cable-based internet rely on physical lines running underground or on poles. During storms, construction accidents, or utility work, those lines are vulnerable to damage. A single cut can disrupt service for entire neighborhoods, and repairs can take hours—or even days—depending on conditions.
That’s why resilience matters.
Unwired’s Always-On Wireless Advantage
At Unwired Ltd, we built our network differently. Our fixed wireless service doesn’t rely on fragile underground cables or telephone lines. Instead, we deliver internet wirelessly from our locally owned and operated network, designed with full redundancy and backup systems.
What that means for you:
- Weather-resilient connectivity – Our wireless network is far less susceptible to fiber cuts and ground-level damage.
- Redundant infrastructure – If one path goes down, traffic is automatically rerouted to keep your connection stable.
- Backup power at the network level – Our core infrastructure is equipped with backup power, allowing us to stay online during widespread outages.
Simply put: we’re built to stay up when other networks go dark.
Power Out? Your Internet Doesn’t Have to Be.
Even if your home loses power, Unwired Ltd can help keep you connected.
We offer an optional backup battery system that powers your router for 1–3 days, depending on usage. That means, your internet stays online during power outages and you can access emergency information and news, while also staying connected to family, work, and critical services.
For many customers, this added layer of protection provides peace of mind, especially during storm season or in areas prone to outages.

When outages happen, resilience matters. When emergencies arise, staying connected matters even more.
During a recent storm, a large portion of the Marin area was left without AT&T internet, causing major disruptions. You can read about it here. Customers in that same area with Unwired Ltd service remained unaffected.
