CACHE operates a network of fixed-wireless radios at strategic locations throughout the Hood River Valley. With a mix of 5.8GHz Line-of-sight radios and 900MHz Non-line-of-sight radios from Trango Broadband Wireless, we are able to service most of the Hood River Valley. This wireless network provides a wireless alternative to wired Internet access solutions such as DSL and Cable modems. In rural areas, wireless may be the only way to obtain a reliable high-speed internet connection as it does not rely on legacy copper phone lines or coaxial TV cable.
- Synchronous upload and download speeds provide increased performance over typical residential
connections
where the upload speed (transmitting data TO the internet) is a fraction of the download speed (receiving
data FROM the internet).
- Friendly, local support.
- Firewall router and private IP address for increased protection from malicious activity on the internet. Public IP addresses are available on request.
- In-home WiFi access for laptops and other devices with the included wireless router.

HREC offers a seasonal rate for part-time residents where we will leave the equipment installed set to a limited speed for a reduced monthly rate. This prevents repeated setup/activation fees and possible service calls and allows you to resume your service at full speed on a specified date or with just a call into the office.
By accepting service from CACHE you are consenting to our Terms of Service. A copy of the Terms of Service should be left at the time of installation, it is viewable here on the website, and a copy may be requested at the HREC office.
