Great Basin Internet Services Reno
A Reno independent internet provider trading since 1992, selling fiber, Ethernet and fixed wireless to northern Nevada businesses alongside hosting and email.
Great Basin has been an independent Reno internet provider since 1992, selling fiber, Ethernet and fixed wireless to northern Nevada businesses. Being straight about this one: it publishes no coverage map and no rate card, so availability is a conversation rather than a lookup. In a market otherwise made of two incumbents and a cable operator, that conversation is worth having.
Where Great Basin Internet Services is strong
- Independent and long established in Reno, which is rare in a market of two incumbents and a cable operator
- Sells fixed wireless as well as fiber, so an address a build cannot reach still has an answer
- Small enough to talk to about an unusual requirement
- Worth a call specifically because the national carriers will not mention them
Great Basin Internet Services in Nevada specifically
- Reno and the surrounding northern Nevada market. Not a Las Vegas option.
- Sells fixed wireless as well as fiber, which matters at an address where a build would be long or would not happen at all.
- Small and local, so an unusual requirement gets a real answer rather than a product code.
- No published footprint. Availability is route and site specific, and the only way to know is to ask.
- Establish the repair escalation path before you sign. A smaller operator can be better at this than a national carrier or worse, and you want to know which.
Best fit. Reno businesses that want an independent alternative, and northern Nevada addresses where fiber would be a long build.
What to watch for before you sign
- No published coverage map and no published business rates. Both come from asking.
- Availability is route and site specific. Being in Reno is not the same as being reachable.
- Smaller than the incumbents, so establish the repair escalation path before you sign, not after.
- Confirm which product you are being quoted. Fiber, Ethernet and fixed wireless are three different service levels.
Products
- Fiber internet
- Ethernet
- Fixed wireless internet
- Web hosting
- Business email
What a Nevada business pays, and how to judge a quote from Great Basin Internet Services
Business internet is priced per address, so there is no Great Basin Internet Services rate card anyone can hold them to. What follows is what businesses in Nevada 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.

Great Basin Internet Services in Nevada: common questions
Is Great Basin Internet Services available at my Nevada 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 Great Basin Internet Services directly, along with every other carrier that could reach it.
How much does Great Basin Internet Services business internet cost in Nevada?
Business internet is priced per address, so there is no Great Basin Internet Services rate card to quote, and a site that shows you one is guessing. In Nevada 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 Great Basin Internet Services the cheapest option in Nevada?
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 Great Basin Internet Services 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.
