If you’re in a rural part of Northern Ontario and have been notified that your Xplore satellite service will be discontinued, you don’t need to be left without reliable internet. Netspectrum Internet Solutions is already in and actively expanding service into many of the areas affected by these recent changes.
According to multiple public reports, Xplore (formerly Xplornet) has announced the discontinuation of one of its satellite service beams, which is expected to affect a number of rural customers across Canada, including parts of Northern Ontario, over the coming months. As reported by CBC News and other outlets, some customers will lose access to their current service depending on their location and the specific satellite coverage zone.
We’re working to ensure that communities impacted by these satellite service changes continue to have dependable internet options.
We’re currently serving and expanding in:
Nipissing region
Muskoka region
French River region
…and other nearby rural communities where satellite coverage is being reduced. If you live in or near one of these areas—or know someone who does—our team can help check what Netspectrum services are available at your exact address.
We’re not a distant, national provider—we’re a Northern Ontario company with local offices in Sudbury, North Bay, Sault Ste. Marie, and remote employees all over our network. Our mission is simple: to connect rural and northern communities with dependable, high-quality internet backed by real people who live and work here.
Depending on your location, we may be able to offer:
Fixed wireless or fibre internet options instead of satellite
Local installation and support from technicians who know the area
Flexible plans that fit homes, cottages, and small businesses
If someone you know is affected by the Xplore service changes, send them our way—and you’ll both benefit through our Refer-a-Friend Program. It’s an easy way to help your neighbours stay connected while earning rewards yourself.
