Better Together.
Internet + Phone Bundles.
Finding reliable internet and phone service in rural California is harder than it should be. National providers often skip the Sierra Foothills, the Central Valley, and Tehama County entirely, leaving residents and small businesses to piece together separate services from multiple vendors, each with its own bill, support line, and contract.
Cal.net’s bundled internet and phone packages solve that problem with a single plan, one provider, and local support based right here in California. Whether you’re a household in Placerville looking for a simpler setup or a small business in Modesto that needs reliable connectivity and a professional phone system, Cal.net offers bundled options built for the communities national carriers overlook.

Internet and phone on a single plan with one monthly bill
No data caps, no long-term contracts, no misleading introductory pricing

Residential Bundles: Fusion Broadband + Phone
Cal.net’s Fusion Broadband + Phone package is the flagship residential bundle, combining high-speed internet with a full-featured home phone line on one plan.
What’s Included
The Fusion package gives residential customers everything they need for a connected household:
High-speed broadband internet with speeds up to 1 Gbps (varies by region and technology available at your address)
Unlimited nationwide calling with no per-minute charges
Standard phone features including caller ID, call waiting, and 411 directory service
911 emergency calling built in
Keep your current phone number when you switch
Low international calling rates for Fusion customers
There are no data caps on internet usage, so streaming, remote work, video calls, and gaming won’t push you into overage territory. And because Cal.net does not use misleading introductory pricing, the rate you sign up for reflects what you’ll actually pay.
Who It’s For
Fusion Broadband + Phone is a strong fit for households that:
Currently pay separate bills for internet and a landline or VoIP phone service
Need a reliable home phone for elderly family members, medical monitoring devices, or home security systems
Work remotely and want a dedicated phone line separate from their mobile number
Live in a rural area where mobile signal is inconsistent and a home phone line provides a reliable backup
To check whether Fusion is available at your address, visit the Cal.net availability form or call 844-422-5638.
Business Internet Bundles
Cal.net offers two categories of business bundles, one designed for straightforward internet and phone needs, and one for organizations that require a more customized setup.
Standard Business Internet + Phone Packages
The business version of the Fusion bundle combines Cal.net’s fastest available business broadband with a full-featured business phone line. It includes:
Unlimited nationwide calling for the business line
Call waiting, caller ID, and 411 directory service
911 emergency calling
Number portability so you keep your existing business phone number
Low international calling rates
Priority customer support
This package suits small businesses, home offices, and professional services firms that need reliable internet and a dedicated business phone line without managing two separate accounts or vendors.
Custom Business Packages: Dedicated Wireless, Fiber, and VoIP
For businesses with more complex requirements, Cal.net builds custom packages around dedicated wireless or fiber-optic internet connections. These can include:
VoIP phone systems for multi-line business environments
Email hosting services
Web hosting benefits
Dedicated bandwidth not shared with residential traffic in the area
VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) delivers phone service through your internet connection rather than traditional copper lines. For businesses in rural California where physical phone infrastructure can be limited or aging, a VoIP bundle over Cal.net’s fixed wireless or fiber network offers a modern, scalable alternative.
Note: Specific package configurations, pricing, and availability vary by location and the infrastructure serving your address. Contact Cal.net directly to discuss a custom solution for your business.

Why Bundle? The Case for Combining Internet and Phone
Bundling internet and phone service with a single provider is a practical decision, not just a convenience. Here’s what it actually changes for households and businesses in rural California.
Simplified Service Management
One provider means one bill, one support number, and one account to manage. When something goes wrong, there’s no back-and-forth between an internet company and a phone company, each pointing to the other as the source of the problem. Cal.net handles both, so troubleshooting is faster and accountability is clear.
Consistent, Locally Supported Connectivity
National carriers often deprioritize rural service areas. Cal.net was built specifically to serve communities in the Sierra Foothills, Central Valley, and Tehama County, which means local technicians, local knowledge of the terrain and infrastructure, and support staff who understand the specific challenges of rural connectivity.
Customers in areas like Pollock Pines, Rancho Tehama, and Twain Harte regularly report that Cal.net is the only provider delivering consistent speeds in their area, and that local support response times are far faster than what national providers offer remotely.
No Contract Lock-In
Cal.net bundles come without long-term contracts. That matters in rural areas where service availability can change as infrastructure expands. You’re not locked into a multi-year agreement if a better option becomes available, or if your needs change.
Potential Cost Savings
Combining services with one provider can reduce your overall monthly spend compared to maintaining separate accounts, though actual savings depend on the specific package and your location. Cal.net does not advertise specific bundle discounts, so the best way to understand pricing for your address is to contact them directly or use the online availability checker.
Rural Connectivity in California: Why It Matters
California has some of the most connected cities in the world, and some of the most underserved rural communities in the country. According to the California Public Utilities Commission, millions of Californians in rural counties still lack access to broadband speeds that meet the federal definition of high-speed internet.
The gap is not just inconvenient. It affects remote work, telehealth access, education, and economic opportunity. Farms, ranches, and small agricultural businesses in the Central Valley depend on reliable connectivity for operations management, equipment monitoring, and communication with suppliers and buyers.
Cal.net’s approach to the rural connectivity gap:
Fixed wireless technology reaches locations where laying fiber or cable is cost-prohibitive
Fiber-optic infrastructure is being expanded into more communities across the service area
Service is available across more than 150 communities in the Sierra Foothills, Central Valley, Solano, Yolo, and Tehama counties
Speeds up to 1 Gbps are available in select areas, with options starting at accessible price points for households on tighter budgets
The California Department of Technology’s broadband mapping and federal programs like the BEAD initiative are accelerating infrastructure investment in underserved areas. Cal.net participates in expanding coverage as funding and infrastructure allow.
For residents and businesses in areas that national providers have historically skipped, a bundled internet and phone plan from a local provider is often the most practical and reliable option available.
