Take a Couple Minutes to Help Bring High-Speed Internet to Groton and the NEK
The COVID crisis has shown Vermonters just how important it is to get
broadband to every home and business in the state. Vermont is in the middle of an immediate
tele-education crisis and we must move as quickly as possible to connect as many addresses as possible. Looking to
the long term, the future of Vermont’s economy is directly tied to getting high speed Internet to all of
Vermont.
NEK Community Broadband (www.nekbroadband.org) is a Communications Union
District (CUD)
consisting of 31 towns in Northern Vermont working to provide every E911
business and residential
address in the with access to a minimum speed of 100 Mbps, symmetrical at
an affordable price. Our
goal is to ultimately get every home and business connected to fiber. NEK
Broadband will use wireless
as an interim solution to get as many addresses connected as soon as
possible.

As part of this effort, NEK Broadband is in the process of performing a
feasibility study, followed by a
business plan to accomplish the above mission. As part of this process, NEK
Broadband would like you to
help by giving a few minutes of your time to take an on-line survey. This
survey includes an assessment
of your current connection speed, as well as answering a few questions to
assess overall interest and
need. The quality of the survey increases with the number of people who
participate, so please help.

The survey is very brief and will only take about 5 minutes to complete.
