About United Communications
United & Turtle Mountain Communications is headquartered in Langdon, North Dakota, with additional offices in Bottineau and Rolla. The company traces its roots to February 1952, when it was established as the United Telephone Cooperative to bring telephone service to rural communities in northeastern North Dakota. The company provides high-speed broadband internet, digital TV, digital telephone, and security services to residential and business customers. Its network includes more than 330 miles of fiber-optic cable deployed across Langdon, Bottineau, Walhalla, Rolla, Rolette, and surrounding exchanges, enabling fiber-to-the-home connections and IPTV. Beyond retail services, United has formed several wholesale and infrastructure partnerships: North Dakota Long Distance (NDLD) with three other carriers for long-distance transport; ND Telecom for special circuit engineering; IdeaOne as a competitive local exchange carrier in the Fargo area; and Dakota Carrier Network (DCN), a statewide virtual private network serving school districts and government agencies. A wholly owned subsidiary, Turtle Mountain Communications, acquired exchanges and access lines from U.S. West in the 1990s, and the company has built cellular towers leased to Verizon Wireless in Rolla and Bottineau. Customers range from individual households and small businesses to K‑12 school districts, governmental bodies, and other telecommunications providers that purchase wholesale transport and special circuits. United describes its mission as keeping rural North Dakota communities strong by delivering essential communication services that allow people to connect, work, and thrive. As a designated Smart Rural Community provider, it emphasizes local decision‑making, community reinvestment through its educational foundation, and a workforce drawn from the towns it serves.
