About MINET Fiber
What is MINET?
MINET, short for Monmouth Independence Network, is a municipally owned fiber to the home provider of data and voice services in Polk County Oregon.
In response to the incumbent providers’ refusal to upgrade aging infrastructure and provide adequate services to the community, MINET was formed in 2004 as an ORS190 through an Intergovernmental Agreement between the cities of Monmouth and Independence.
