XNET Inc. has appointed telecom veteran and Board Member James Childs as CEO, signaling an execution-focused phase of growth. Co-founder Richard DeVaul will serve as Chief Evangelist, continuing to advance XNET’s long-term vision. Childs brings decades of telecom leadership: launching the first wireless ISP in the Western U.S., scaling Velowave to 25,000+ customers before its sale to Sling Broadband, advancing mmWave networks with Cambridge Broadband, and leading spectrum acquisition, licensing, M&A, and business development as SVP of Corporate Strategy at GeoLinks. “Each phase of a company’s growth requires the right leadership, and James is the right leader at the right time,” said Richard DeVaul. “With James at the helm, I can focus on vision and XNET evangelism—the decentralized future of mobile communications.” “XNET is proving that cellular offload isn’t just a tool—it’s an edge,” said James Childs. “We’re going to move fast, scale big, and redefine how the industry thinks about decentralized connectivity infrastructure.” XNET continues to aggressively build a carrier-grade decentralized network on Passpoint®-enabled Wi-Fi and cellular CBRS, delivering seamless, secure, and cost-efficient connectivity while creating revenue-sharing opportunities for operators.
