After 30 years of serving Central Valley’s rural communities, we’re proud to announce the biggest leap forward in Softcom’s history.
Freedom GIG is here – and rural internet will never be the same.
What is Freedom GIG?
Freedom GIG delivers true gigabit internet speeds to rural California for the first time:
- 1000 Mbps download – 5X faster than Starlink
- 200 Mbps upload – 10X faster than Starlink
- Consistent, reliable performance – No weather issues, no congestion slowdowns
To put that in perspective: you can download a full HD movie in under 30 seconds. Upload a 1GB video to YouTube in about 40 seconds. Run flawless video calls on Zoom while your kids stream 4K and game online – all at the same time, without a hiccup.
This isn’t “up to” speed that you’ll never actually see. This is real, delivered performance powered by fiber-fed towers and next-generation G2 Tarana equipment.
Why This Matters for Rural Central Valley
For decades, rural families and businesses have been told to accept slower internet as the price of country living. Satellite was unreliable. Cellular was congested. Cable companies wouldn’t run lines to your road.
We never accepted that.
Since 1994, Softcom has been on a mission to bring urban-quality internet to rural communities. We’ve built over 20 towers across 1,000 square miles. We’ve invested millions in fiber infrastructure. And now, with Freedom GIG, we’re delivering speeds that most urban neighborhoods can’t even get.
No other provider in Galt, Lodi, Acampo, or surrounding areas can match these speeds. Not Starlink. Not T-Mobile. Not Verizon. No one.

What About Privacy?
Here’s something that hasn’t changed: we will never sell your data.

That’s been our policy since 1994. Freedom GIG customers get the same ironclad privacy protection we’ve always provided – just with 10X the speed.

For Remote Workers: This Changes Everything
If you work from home, you know the frustration: frozen Zoom calls, slow file uploads, VPN connections that crawl.
The secret most people don’t realize? Upload speed matters more than download speed for remote work.
Starlink gives you 10-25 Mbps upload. T-Mobile and Verizon give you 12-55 Mbps on a good day. Freedom GIG gives you 200 Mbps upload.
That means:
- Video calls that never freeze or pixelate
- Cloud backups that complete in minutes, not hours
- Screen sharing that’s actually smooth
- Large file uploads that don’t interrupt your day
If your internet has been holding back your remote work, Freedom GIG is the solution you’ve been waiting for.
