FairPoint Communications upgrades broadband service in Rutland County

Upgrades increase high-speed Internet access to over 3,860 addresses in the county
On Sept. 13, FairPoint Communications announce the completion of broadband upgrade projects in Rutland County. As a result of these projects, faster broadband speeds are available to more than 3,860 locations in the county – including some addresses for the first time.
“Broadband is an essential tool in our daily lives,” said Beth Fastiggi, FairPoint’s Vermont state president. “We know Vermonters want fast, reliable broadband service to help families connect, students learn, and businesses compete. FairPoint’s upgrades can make a big impact, especially for those who live and work in rural Vermont. It is rewarding to know that these direct investments made by FairPoint and implemented by our dedicated employees will offer more advanced broadband access to our customers and play an important role in improving the quality of life in these communities.”
With these projects, more residents and businesses can quickly email photos, download music, stream video, and surf the Internet.
Since April 2008, FairPoint has invested more than $900 million in its communications infrastructure and technology to bring broadband to northern New England, including building thousands of miles of new fiber optic network across the region.
