The Story of the Alpheus Name


In Greek mythology, the river god Alpheus fell in love with the Nereid Arethusa. When Arethusa became an artesian fountain, Alpheus tunneled underground for thousands of miles to find her sacred waters.  At Alpheus, we are no less devoted to our customers, and we use our underground fiber network to transport your mission critical data throughout and between metro Texas.
