MANCHESTER, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GoNetspeed, the Northeast’s largest independent fiber internet provider, is investing more than $1.6 million to expand its 100% fiber-optic network in Manchester. Construction is already underway, and once complete, the expansion will bring multi-gigabit speeds to more than 5,000 additional homes and businesses. This latest investment increases GoNetspeed’s total commitment to Manchester to $8.2 million—strengthening the city’s digital infrastructure and delivering the fast, reliable connectivity residents and businesses depend on for school, work, and everyday life.
As construction continues, GoNetspeed expects to begin connecting customers in the expanded service areas in the coming weeks. To stay informed, visit gonetspeed.com/ct/manchester/ for construction updates and to pre-order service.
