Progress Update, Feb. 2023


NEK Broadband is committed to fast reliable internet service to every address with utility poles in the Northeast Kingdom and Wolcott. By the end of 2024, portions of 45 of our member towns will have access to new high-speed internet as we build the “backbone” of our fiber-optic network to maximize the reliability of services. Plans for building out after the backbone will be based on many factors including grant-funding obligations, existing infrastructure, number of addresses registered, and those with school-aged children or telehealth needs.
