Connecting Kenya,
one home at a time
We started SHIKANET because we believed Kenyan homes deserved better internet — fast, affordable, and backed by a team that actually picks up the phone.
Born from a simple frustration
Like most Kenyans, we got tired of slow speeds, constant downtime, and customer service that never responded. We knew the infrastructure existed to do better — it just took people willing to build something different.
SHIKANET was built by a team of network engineers and community advocates who believe that fast internet shouldn't be a luxury. We laid our own links, deployed our own equipment, and focused on the homes that big providers kept ignoring.
Today we serve homes across our coverage area with plans starting at KSh 1,499 per month — and we're growing.
- Locally owned and operated
- Own infrastructure — no middle-man
- No contracts, transparent pricing
Built on a clear purpose
Our mission: To deliver fast, reliable, and affordable home internet to every Kenyan household in our coverage area — with honest pricing and genuine support.
Our vision: A Kenya where no home is left offline because of cost or poor infrastructure. We see a future where every student, parent, and professional has the connection they need to thrive.
Every technician we send, every tower we install, every support call we answer — it all points to that one goal.

Our core values
These aren't just words on a wall. They shape every decision we make — from how we price our plans to how we treat every caller.
Honesty
We say what we charge. No hidden fees, no bait-and-switch. What you see on our pricing page is what you pay.
Reliability
Your internet shouldn't disappear when you need it most. We build and maintain our network to stay up, and fix problems fast when they happen.
Accessibility
We price our plans so that a typical Kenyan household can afford quality internet — not just people with big salaries.
Responsiveness
We pick up the phone. We respond to WhatsApp. We show up when we say we will. That's the SHIKANET standard.
Community
We're not a faceless corporation. We're your neighbours. We reinvest in our coverage areas and grow with our communities.
Excellence
From the cable on your wall to the call you make at midnight, we hold ourselves to a high standard — every time.
Real infrastructure, real speeds
We own and operate every link in our network — from backbone towers to the ONU on your wall.
