Allband Communications Cooperative HIGH-SPEED
FIBER INTERNET UP TO 400MBPS High-speed Internet and telephone fiber to the home provider located in rural NORTHEAST, Michigan.

Allband was conceived by president John M. Reigle in the late 1990's when he built a home near Curran, Michigan and was unable to obtain a telephone to run his home-based business. He soon found that residents in this remote and isolated area has actually died from heart attacks, car wrecks, chainsaw accidents and lost homes in fires due to the lack of access to 911 services. These tragedies prompted his interest in starting a Telephone Cooperative. Allband is the first telephone cooperative in the state of Michigan. Allband's ultimate goal is not only to provide a robust network that overtime will improve the quality of life, and the economic, educational and health care opportunities for residents in Northeast Michigan. Allband was incorporated as a non-profit cooperative to provide telecommunications services to previously unserved areas in Michigan. Allband's objective is to serve the public interest by bringing telecommunications services to its members/customers into these unserved areas. On November 5, 2003, with encouragement and assistance from Michigan State University, various non-profit groups and the Michigan Senate and House Representatives, customers in the unserved area decided to incorporate Allband as a non-profit cooperative. Until Allband turned-up service on November 30, 2006, the Robbs Creek exchange was not served by an ILEC, even though it was surrounded by exchanges belonging to Verizon. Due to the low population density (less than 1.6 access lines per sq. mile) and lack of commercial investment, the Robbs Creek area was ultimately ignored by Verizon... and telecommunications services were denied to residents requesting them.

***Emergency Network Maintenance***

LOW IMPACT

Allband has identified a small portion of its fiber network that requires an emergency repair. This will impact the following roads:

- Spratt
- Meinzinger
- Cousineau

If you live on these roads, you may experience a brief service interruption while we repair our fiber. We do not expect a long-term outage as the repair should only take around 30 minutes.

Please contact our office if you have any questions at 989-369-9999.

🇺🇸 Celebrating America’s 250th with More Speed—FREE! 🇺🇸

As America celebrates its 250th birthday, Allband Communications Cooperative is proud to celebrate by giving every residential and business fiber customer 250 Mbps more speed—at no additional cost!

🚀 Your free speed upgrade is already live!

Even better, all residential and business fiber packages now feature symmetrical speeds, meaning your upload speeds now match your download speeds. Whether you’re running a business, working from home, streaming, gaming, video conferencing, or backing up files to the cloud, you’ll enjoy a faster, smoother online experience.

To our fixed wireless customers: we haven’t forgotten about you! You’re an important part of the Allband family, and we’re continuing to invest in new wireless infrastructure and technology to bring faster speeds and improved reliability. While fiber remains our long-term goal wherever feasible, we’re committed to ensuring every customer benefits from continued network improvements.

Here’s what’s new:

✅ 250 Mbps added to every fiber internet package
✅ Symmetrical upload and download speeds
✅ No equipment changes
✅ No appointments
✅ No additional cost

But we’re not stopping there.

We’re continuing to invest in the future of broadband across our communities:

📍 Hillman – We’re actively working to increase speeds for our fixed wireless customers through ongoing network improvements.

📍 McCollum Lake & Crooked Lake – Fiber expansion is continuing! Where we’re able to obtain the necessary property access, we’ll extend our fiber network. In areas where property access isn’t possible, we’ll deploy upgraded fixed wireless infrastructure to deliver faster, more reliable service.

📍 Glennie & the Surrounding Area – We’re actively working with federal, state, and local agencies to complete the environmental review and permitting process so we can begin the next phase of our future-proof fiber expansion. We appreciate your patience as we work through these important steps and look forward to bringing fiber internet to even more homes and businesses.

As your local communications cooperative, we’re committed to continually investing in the communities we serve and building a network that will meet the needs of today and tomorrow.

As the weather warms up and outdoor projects get underway, we want to remind everyone to contact MISS DIG 811 before starting digging projects.

Whether you're installing a fence, planting trees, adding landscaping, building a deck, or performing commercial excavation work, digging without locating underground utilities can result in service interruptions, costly repairs, and safety hazards.

Before you dig:

• Call 811 or submit a locate request online at www.missdig811.org
• Allow the required notice period for utility locates
• Wait for utilities to be marked before beginning your project
• Respect the marked utility lines and dig carefully around them

Underground communications lines, electric lines, gas lines, water lines, and other utilities may be buried where you least expect them. A free locate request can help prevent accidental damage and keep everyone safe.

If underground communication lines are damaged, internet, phone, and other services may be interrupted for you and your neighbors.

Thank you for helping protect critical infrastructure and maintain reliable service throughout our community.

If you have any questions regarding our facilities or services, please contact us at 989-369-9999 or by email at: [email protected]

DATE: 4/29/26 12:00 AM (LATE EVENING TUESDAY 4/28/26)

WORK: TRUNK UPGRADE

To better serve you, Allband will be performing maintenance on our core network the morning of 4/29/2026, beginning at 12:00 AM and ending at 3:00 AM.

We are upgrading a trunk with a partner carrier to increase capacity. This maintenance is part of our ongoing effort to upgrade our core network and fiber-to-the-home platform with next-gen technology. We want your experience to be fast, reliable and secure!

While we have reserved the entire window to complete the work, we do not anticipate that the maintenance will take more than 1 hour and as always, we will do our best to minimize loss of service during the maintenance.

If your service is lost, it should restore automatically once the maintenance is complete. However, if your service is not working afterward, please restart your router by unplugging it from power and plugging it back in. If the issue persists, please call us at 989-369-9999 for troubleshooting assistance or email us at [email protected].

We do try to monitor Facebook messages and comments during the maintenance, but our response time may be delayed while work is underway.

Thank you for your patience and support as we continue to provide urban speeds between the trees!
