About Us
Goldfield Access Network, L.C., (GAN) was established in 1996 in response to the Federal Telecommunications Act of 1996 which made competition possible in local telephone markets. The goal of the Act was to promote competition and secure lower prices and higher quality services for the American consumer.
GAN is jointly owned by two local companies, Goldfield Telephone Company and Advanced Telecommunications Holdings (ATH). Goldfield Telephone Co. has provided telephone service in the Goldfield community since 1903 and the principals of ATH sell telecommunications equipment nationally. Darrell Seaba is the president of GAN and has over 30 years of experience in the telecommunications industry.
It is GAN's goal to provide the latest technology, the highest quality and the most cost-effective telecommunications solutions to its proposed customer base. An application with the Iowa Utilities Board for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity was filed in March, 1997. The application was approved on May 9, 1997. The Interconnection Agreement between US West Communications, Inc. and Goldfield Access Network, L.C. was signed on June 13, 1997.
GAN offers local telephone service, long distance, dial-up, and high speed internet (DSL) service in Clarion, Eagle Grove, Humboldt, and Renwick. A 5 year fiber to the home (FTTH) project is set to begin in Humboldt the fall of 2008. Increased DSL speed and video content delivery will be several notable benefits of this project.
