Fastwyre Broadband is bringing to Eastern Nebraska some of the fastest internet speeds experienced in the region.
Fastwyre is investing over $65 million in upgrades to its network and service reliability, delivering unparalleled connectivity in the region for years to come. Fastwyre has a deep-rooted history in Eastern Nebraska, as it previously operated as Huntel and was founded in 1910.
The company has evolved into Fastwyre Broadband, and it is committed to revolutionizing internet accessibility. Eastern Nebraska areas, including Blair and Arlington, will enjoy faster internet speeds from 2 gigabits per second with future plans of up to 10 gigabits per second. In addition, significant capacity upgrades to other Nebraska areas and communities will see significant upgrades in service capability through Fastwyre’s participation in grant-related projects.
“Delivering speeds up to 2 gigabits per second at affordable rates is already a differentiator in our Bellevue service area, and we look forward to bringing this top-tier connectivity to other Eastern Nebraska communities while being committed to first-class customer service,” said Chris Eldredge, CEO of Fastwyre Broadband. “Building on our company’s deep roots, our connection to Eastern Nebraska drives our over $65 million investment to serve residents better and contribute to the growth of businesses. Reliable, affordable, high-speed internet empowers successful lives, and we are dedicated to enhancing our fiber-optic network now and into the future.”
Fastwyre’s state-of-the-art network features a fiber-to-the-premises infrastructure where initial upgrades of 2 gigabits per second are expected to be completed by early summer. Other upgrades will be completed in the near future.
“Our network enables residents and businesses to experience equally fast uploads and downloads when sharing multimedia files or streaming video,” says Danny Pate, Fastwyre’s Chief Operating Officer. “Our customers rely on the internet every day for work and play, and our network speeds will create an exceptional experience for customers with virtual learning, agricultural technology, telehealth, e-commerce and entertainment at very affordable rates, from $44.99 per month with speeds up to 2 gigabits per second.”
