Broadband and VoIP in Machynlleth
Our home patch. Machynlleth sits in the upper Dyfi Valley, at the meeting point of Powys, Gwynedd and Ceredigion, the same valley Cader Networks is named for.
What we install in Machynlleth
Mach is where we live and work. We know the lie of the land, the houses on the Heol y Pentre that get good fibre, the hill farms above Forge that need 4G, and the dairy farms out past Aberhosan where Starlink's the only sensible answer.
FTTP coverage in central Mach has improved through 2024 and 2025, most properties along Heol Maengwyn, Penrallt Street and the upper town have FTTP available. The Dolfor industrial estate and Bryn-y-Gog out to the east are similar. Properties up the valley sides and out towards Corris, Forge or Pennal vary much more.
For businesses in town, the cafes around the clock tower, the shops on Maengwyn Street, the offices off Heol Pentrehedyn, we typically run fibre with a 4G failover SIM. For the surrounding hill farms we'll spec 4G fixed wireless if signal works, Starlink if not.
- FTTP across most of the town centre and Bryn-y-Gog estate
- Strong Vodafone signal for 4G across the valley floor
- Starlink frequent for properties past Corris or up towards Aberangell
- 01650 number porting, our own dialling code, handled locally
- Dyfi Valley landmarks: clock tower, Senedd-dy (Glyndŵr's parliament), CAT

What people ask about Machynlleth
Is your office in Machynlleth?
Cader Networks is based in the Dyfi Valley. Machynlleth is our local town. Most of our team lives within a half-hour drive.
Why is the dialling code 01650 different from Aberystwyth's 01970?
Mach sits in the 01650 area (which also covers Bala and surrounding mid-Wales). Aberystwyth is 01970. When we port business numbers we keep them on whichever code they were originally on.
Can you cover up the valley sides. Aberhosan, Forge?
Yes, we install regularly up the valley sides. Mostly 4G fixed-wireless with external antennas where signal needs lifting, plus Starlink for the genuinely remote spots.
