🌟 Our Etex Technicians Are Officially TikTok Famous! 🌟

A recent TikTok featuring some of our Installation & Repair Technicians has exploded with:

📈 280,000+ views
❤️ 45,000+ likes
💬 1,450+ comments
🔄 9,800+ shares

While the internet is just discovering them, they've been celebrities around the Etex campus and throughout East Texas for years. After all, they're the friendly faces who show up when customers need us most.

To celebrate their viral success, Etex CEO Charlie Cano even gave the stars of the video a little extra spending money—consider it their very own TikTok NIL deal! 😄 And because great things happen when great teams work together, the entire Etex family was rewarded with some extra PTO as well.

Congratulations to our newest social media stars and to the entire team that makes Etex the local company East Texans know and trust.

Thank you to everyone who participated in our recent community Internet survey. Stay tuned for what survey participant won a $200 amazon Gift card for completing our survey!

With over 1,100 responses from across East Texas, we learned a lot about what matters most to families in the communities we serve.

Here are a few things we heard loud and clear:

1. Internet is no longer a luxury. Most respondents rely on it every day for streaming, banking, shopping, work, school, video calls, home security, healthcare, and staying connected with family and friends.

2. Reliability matters. When asked about Internet service, respondents consistently ranked reliability and fast support ahead of simply finding the lowest price.

3. Local support makes a difference. Many respondents said knowing issues could be resolved quickly by local technicians would influence their decision when choosing a provider.

4. Relationships still matter. The most common way people said they first heard about Etex was through friends and family, reminding us that trust is earned one customer at a time.

For almost 75 years, our mission has been simple: provide reliable connections and support the communities we call home. We are grateful for the feedback and will continue working every day to earn your trust.

We’re proud to announce the launch of a new workforce learning program in partnership with Transfr , introducing LINK (Learning Immersively for Next-Gen Knowledge), an innovative initiative designed to build broadband talent across rural Texas. Through cutting-edge VR training and industry-aligned curriculum, LINK empowers high school students and local workers with the skills needed for high-demand careers in broadband and telecommunications, all without leaving their communities. In collaboration with Transfr and fellow rural broadband providers, we’re creating meaningful pathways to opportunity while helping bridge the digital divide across Texas. We’re especially excited that three East Texas school districts, Gilmer, Ore City , and Union Hill, are leading the way as the first in the state to launch this program.
