Cader NetworksBroadband and VoIP across Powys
Powys is the largest county in Wales by area and one of the most challenging for fixed-line broadband. We work across all of it: full fibre in the main towns, 4G in the market towns, Starlink for the hills.
What we install across Powys
Powys covers the geographical heart of Wales, from the Cambrian Mountains in the west to the English border in the east, from the upper Severn Valley in the north to the Brecon Beacons in the south. Broadband coverage varies a lot depending on which part of the county you are in.
FTTP has reached Newtown, Welshpool, Brecon, Llandrindod Wells and Builth Wells well. Outside the immediate town footprints, FTTC and 4G are the realistic options. The Cambrian Mountains belt from Llanidloes through to Rhayader and across to the upper Wye is where Starlink takes over. Many properties up there are signal-blocked from all four UK mobile networks.
We install regularly across the county: agricultural businesses, holiday cottages, multi-site retail, the market-town professional offices. The mix of services is wider in Powys than anywhere else we work because the geography demands it.
- Full fibre (FTTP) available across Powys's main towns
- 4G fixed wireless across rural postcodes with usable signal
- Starlink installation for properties past 4G reach
- Business broadband and VoIP for high-street retail, hospitality and offices
- Access Broadband Cymru grant handled where eligible
