What is Helium?

The Helium Network is a revolutionary new way of connecting low-power sensors and devices to the internet. Helium is leveraging cutting-edge blockchain technology to compete with major tel-co companies in the race to deploy a world-wide IoT network.

Host a Helium Hotspot

We are actively looking for individuals and business that are interested in hosting Helium hotspots to help expand The People’s Network in our local area. If you live in/around Salem, Albany, Corvallis, please reach out for more details. We will contact you if/when we determine that you make a good candidate for hosting a hotspot. Learn more about being a Hotspot Host.

Helium Deployment Consulting/Optimization

At AlpineCS we have deployed and continue to manage a fleet of Helium hotspots. We continually monitor and optimize our hotspot deployments as we work towards our goal of bringing the Helium Network to our local area. If you have your own hotspots that aren’t performing as well as you had hoped we are happy to share our insights and lessons learned to help you out.

Custom LP-WAN deployments

Have a sensor network application but stuck waiting for your Helium Hotspots or don’t want to pay the Helium Premium? We have non-helium hotspots and supporting infrastructure available for you to build your own personal LP-WAN network and dashboards. This is a great solution for rural deployments where there isn’t likely to be Helium Hotspots popping up nearby any-time soon. Get started right away with a basic gateway and sensor kit for less than $200.
