Building a fair, accessible, and community-owned internet across Las Vegas.

Access to the internet is a basic need for work, education, healthcare, and communication. In Las Vegas, many residents still face barriers to getting online. High monthly costs, unreliable service, strict contracts, and missing infrastructure in certain neighborhoods make internet access difficult or even impossible for some.

Vegas Open Network (VONet) aims to close these gaps by providing internet access with no monthly fees and, when needed, free equipment for those who can’t afford it. For many in our community, saving up to $50 a month can mean the difference between staying connected or affording essentials like medication, electricity, or car insurance.

VONet is funded by donations, run by volunteers, and open to anyone who wants to join. There will be no monthly fees, contracts, or required payments. Everyone who joins will follow the terms of the Network Commons License, which keeps the network open and shared. Volunteers can help set up your connection, or you can choose a DIY install with your own equipment.
