Rural Internet in Pocahontas County, West Virginia
High-speed internet for Pocahontas County homes and businesses beyond the reach of cable and fiber. Unlimited data on every plan, free professional installation, and a U.S. team on the phone 24 hours a day.
The short answer
About 2,700 homes in rural Pocahontas County have no wired internet at all — no cable, no fiber, and no phone-line service fast enough to count as broadband. That is 35% of the 7,768 rural homes in the county, according to the FCC’s own coverage data as of December 2025, and it ranks 29th out of the 55 counties in West Virginia. That is worse than West Virginia as a whole, where 29% of rural homes go without. Country Broadband sells to those addresses. Plans start at $39.99 a month, every plan includes unlimited data with no overage charges, and professional installation is free. Because we deliver over a combination of fiber and wireless connections rather than being locked into one, we can serve addresses that single-technology providers have to turn down.

Why we can serve Pocahontas County when others cannot
Fiber and wireless, whichever reaches you
We are not locked into one way of delivering service. Some addresses get fiber; the rest are served wirelessly, with no cable run to the property. A provider with only one of those can only sell where it built. We can reach a lot of homes they cannot.
If you can get fiber, get fiber
Where a fiber or cable company genuinely serves your street, that is normally the faster and cheaper buy and we will tell you so on the phone.
Unlimited means unlimited
No data cap, no overage charge, no surprise bill after a heavy month. True on every plan we sell.
A person answers the phone
Call 800-692-9907 any hour of any day and you reach a U.S. support team, not a menu that dead-ends.

Call 800-692-9907 with your address and we will tell you what is available there, what it costs and when it can be installed.
Why is internet so bad in Pocahontas County, West Virginia?
Cable and fiber companies build where the houses are close together, because the cost of running line is the same whether it passes four homes to the mile or forty. In Pocahontas County, West Virginia that left 35% of rural homes with no wired option. That is worse than West Virginia as a whole, where 29% of rural homes go without. The phone company's older line, where it still runs, rarely clears the speeds a household needs today. None of that is anybody local's doing — it is arithmetic, and it is why a provider that is not tied to one delivery method can serve people the big carriers cannot.
