Community notes:

Through this project, Xplore is providing access to approximately 16,000 unserved homes and businesses in Cumberland and Colchester counties through fixed high-speed wireless which is now complete. See the fixed wireless coverage map below.

*Xplore is also working to bring a fibre to the home project to some communities which will further enhance the network for many. These hybrid fibre projects are underway with some addresses having access before the overall project areas are complete. See anticipated coverage area maps below. Check here to see if fibre is currently available at your location if you are in anticipated area. If you are in a fibre area, you can choose to switch from fixed wireless once available.

Xplore updates overall plan availability options on their website to include coverage for all towers as available and fibre options. Please contact them here or by calling 1-877-959-5717 to learn more about availability at your location. They can also add you to an update list if service isn’t currently available at this time.

Please check for Satellite Internet Service Rebate Program eligibility as an option for those who can't be reached through a fixed wireless or fibre service or who may have purchased the service before fixed wireless/fibre was available. Learn more here.
