A little rain (ok, a lot) isn’t going to get us down! Despite the high amounts of rainfall this spring, we have continued to march forward with expanding our fiber broadband network in rural Haysville, Clearwater, and Viola. These projects reflect our commitment to improving connectivity to rural Kansans, providing the most reliable network with internet options at the best value.
With these projects, we are rolling out new symmetrical internet speeds – equal download and upload speeds – up to 1 Gbps or 1,000 Mbps. That’s more than 50 times faster download and a thousand times faster upload than currently available. Faster download creates a better experience for all your online activities, including streaming TV, gaming, working from home, taking online classes, and more. Activities such as gaming, working from home, and uploading large files require faster upload speeds. Check out the current status of our 2022 fiber expansion projects and watch for news on upcoming project announcements.
