How did GFNet start?

GFNET (GetFocus Network Service) began as a simple idea driven by a real need: affordable and reliable internet access in areas where connectivity was either weak, expensive, or completely unavailable. The founder noticed that many markets, residential areas, and small businesses struggled to get stable internet for daily use, online work, and digital services.

With a background in networking, internet service management, and IT systems, the founder started GFNET by installing a small hotspot network in Iringa. The goal was to test a solution that was:

  • Fast

  • Affordable

  • Easy for customers to join

  • Stable enough to support many users at once

The first installation quickly gained users, proving there was a huge demand. From that point, GFNET expanded step by step—investing in better equipment, enterprise networking systems, and professional management tools like TP-Link Omada Controllers, Ruijie access points, POE switches, and solar-powered backup systems.

As the network grew stronger and more reliable, GFNET opened new sites including:

✅ Iringa
✅ Dodoma – Machinga Complex
✅ Meriwa, Dodoma

Each expansion brought new improvements, more customers, and better technologies. Today, GFNET serves hundreds of users daily, providing stable connectivity for businesses, students, and communities.

GFNET was built on the belief that internet is not a luxury—it’s a necessity. The company continues to grow with the same mission:

To connect communities and empower the future through reliable and affordable internet services.
