Submission declined on 20 December 2025 by Pythoncoder (talk). This draft appears to contain text generated by a large language model (such as ChatGPT). You cannot use LLMs to generate article content. LLM-generated pages with certain obvious signs of being machine generated may be deleted without notice. Instead, only summarize in your own words a range of independent, reliable, published sources that discuss the subject. See the advice page on large language models for more information. This draft's references do not show that the subject meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion. The draft requires multiple published secondary sources that: provide significant coverage: discuss the subject in detail, not just brief mentions or routine announcements; are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight; are independent: not connected to the subject, such as interviews, press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content. Please add references that meet all three of these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia. If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window. If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.

XNET (officially XNET Inc.) is a United States-based telecommunications infrastructure company that operates a decentralized neutral-host wireless network. Based in Irvine, California, the company utilizes Wi-Fi Passpoint (Hotspot 2.0) and Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) technologies to provide mobile data offload services for major telecommunications carriers.

XNET was founded in 2022 by Richard DeVaul, Alex Luebke, Tom Beirith, and Donal O'Brien. DeVaul, a former executive at Google and Apple, initially served as the company's chief executive officer.^[1]

In August 2025, the company appointed James Childs, a veteran of the telecom industry, as CEO, with DeVaul transitioning to the role of Chief Evangelist.^[2]

In December 2025, XNET appointed Stephen John to its Board of Advisors. John previously served as the CEO of Westell Technologies (NASDAQ: WSTL), a provider of high-performance wireless infrastructure solutions.^[3]

XNET operates as a neutral-host network, an architecture where a single set of wireless infrastructure serves multiple mobile network operators (MNOs) simultaneously. This model is designed to reduce redundant hardware deployments in high-traffic urban and commercial environments.^[4]

The network relies on Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Passpoint (IEEE 802.11u), which allows mobile devices to authenticate automatically using carrier-issued credentials (EAP-SIM) without manual user intervention or captive portals.^[5] In addition to Wi-Fi, XNET utilizes CBRS spectrum to provide LTE and 5G cellular coverage.^[6]

In April 2025, XNET announced a roaming agreement with AT&T, allowing the carrier's subscribers to offload data onto XNET’s infrastructure across commercial locations in the United States.^[7]

In late 2025, XNET entered into a formal partnership with Cambium Networks (NASDAQ: CMBM). The collaboration involves the integration of XNET’s software stack into Cambium’s enterprise Wi-Fi and switching portfolio, specifically aimed at scaling neutral-host deployments in the hospitality, MDUs (Multi-Dwelling Units), and large-venue sectors.^[8]
