Introducing T-Net: Building Affordable Community Internet in Liberia

Access to reliable and affordable internet remains a challenge for many communities across Liberia. High costs, limited coverage, and unreliable service continue to exclude students, small businesses, and households from the digital economy.

T-Net was created to change that.

T-Net is a community-focused broadband network developed and operated by TechDefense Inc. Its goal is simple: make quality internet affordable, accessible, and locally available, especially in areas underserved by traditional telecom providers.

How T-Net Works

T-Net uses a hybrid network model that combines modern wireless technology, centralized authentication, and community-based infrastructure. Each zone connects to a secure core platform that handles user authentication, billing, and network monitoring, allowing seamless access across multiple locations.

Users can connect through:

  • Public Wi-Fi hotspots
  • Home and small business subscriptions
  • Community relay stations that extend coverage beyond dense areas

This design allows T-Net to scale efficiently while maintaining strong performance and reliability.

Built for Communities

Unlike traditional networks, T-Net is designed to grow with the community. Local partners and sponsors can fund and host infrastructure, while TechDefense manages the technology, security, and regulatory compliance. This model creates local ownership opportunities, supports job creation, and ensures long-term sustainability.

More Than Internet

T-Net is not just about connectivity. It is about:

  • Supporting students and educators
  • Enabling small businesses and entrepreneurs
  • Reducing the cost of staying connected
  • Building digital inclusion at the community level

The Road Ahead

T-Net is currently expanding across multiple locations, with plans to scale into additional counties through structured partnerships and franchise models. As the network grows, the mission remains the same: connect more people, at a fair cost, with dependable service.

T-Net is powered by technology—but driven by community.
