Global Net Bozeman
A Montana internet provider trading for over twenty years, selling fiber and fixed wireless to businesses around Bozeman, and one of the retail providers on the Yellowstone Fiber open access network.
Global Net has been selling internet in Montana for over twenty years and is based in Bozeman, where it sells business fiber over its own plant and over the Yellowstone Fiber open access network, plus fixed wireless. Two routes to the same address is a genuinely useful thing in this market. It publishes no coverage map and no business rate card, so availability and price both come from asking, and in Bozeman that conversation is worth having.
Where Global Net is strong
- Sells over Yellowstone Fiber as well as its own plant, so it has two ways to reach a Bozeman address
- Fixed wireless as well as fiber, which matters where a build would be long or would not happen
- Local and long established, with support in Montana rather than in a queue
- Small enough that an unusual requirement gets a real answer
Global Net in Montana specifically
- Bozeman and the surrounding area. This is not a statewide option.
- Sells over Yellowstone Fiber as well as its own network, so there are two possible paths to a Bozeman address.
- Fixed wireless as well as fiber, which matters at an address where a build would be long or would not happen at all.
- Local and long established, so support is in Montana rather than in a national queue.
- Where the service rides Yellowstone Fiber, a fault could sit with either company. Ask how that is handled before you sign, not after.
Best fit. Bozeman businesses that want a local provider, and Gallatin County addresses where fiber would be a long build.
What to watch for before you sign
- Fiber and fixed wireless are different service levels. Confirm which one is on the quote.

What a Montana business pays, and how to judge a quote from Global Net
Business internet is priced per address, so there is no Global Net rate card anyone can hold them to. What follows is what businesses in Montana typically pay at a building that is already lit, whichever carrier serves it. Use it to judge the quote you get.
| Bandwidth | Dedicated internet, monthly | Business fiber broadband, monthly |
|---|---|---|
| 50 Mbps | approximately $329 | approximately $100 |
| 100 Mbps | approximately $369 | approximately $100 |
| 200 Mbps | approximately $464 | approximately $150 |
| 500 Mbps | approximately $499 | approximately $200 |
| 1 Gbps | approximately $680 | approximately $400 |
| 10 Gbps | approximately $2,500 | approximately $2,500 |
What installation usually costs
| Situation | Typical up front cost | What is happening |
|---|---|---|
| Building already lit | $0 to $500 | The carrier is already inside. A cross connect and a router. |
| Short lateral build | $0 to $15,000 | Fiber runs nearby. Carriers often absorb some or all of it on a longer term. |
| Long or difficult build | $15,000 to six figures | Real construction. Permits, trenching, possible crossings. |
Contract term
- 36 months is the usual starting point for business fiber and dedicated internet. 12 and 24 month terms exist and normally cost more per month.
- 60 months buys the biggest discount and the largest construction contribution, which is why it is worth pricing even if you do not sign it.
- Ask for the construction charge at 36 months and at 60 months as two separate numbers. That gap is the real negotiation.
- Check the renewal and the annual escalator before the monthly price. A cheap year one with an automatic uplift is not a cheap contract.

Global Net in Montana: common questions
Is Global Net available at my Montana address?
Carrier footprints change constantly and no public map is accurate at the building level. We check serviceability directly with each carrier before telling you what you can get. Give us the address and we will confirm with Global Net directly, along with every other carrier that could reach it.
How much does Global Net business internet cost in Montana?
Business internet is priced per address, so there is no Global Net rate card to quote, and a site that shows you one is guessing. In Montana we typically quote approximately $329 a month for 50 Mbps of dedicated internet and approximately $680 for 1 Gbps, at a building that is already lit. Business fiber broadband at 1 Gbps typically runs approximately $400. Construction, contract term and which carriers reach the building move the real number.
Is Global Net the cheapest option in Montana?
Sometimes, and it depends almost entirely on whether your building is already on their network. A carrier who is already in the building will normally beat a carrier who has to build, regardless of list pricing.
Can I buy Global Net through you at the same price?
Yes. Pricing is the same as going direct. The difference is that you get every other carrier's number at the same time, and you are not managing the process yourself.

We will confirm whether Global Net can serve you, and quote every other carrier that can reach the building at the same time.
