Metronet delivers portage ultra-high-speed fibre optic internet
Metronet has announced that Portage’s residents and businesses located in initial construction areas now have access to full fibre optic internet. As Metronet’s service becomes available throughout the city, residents will have access to multi-gigabit speeds up to 2 gigabits; and businesses may access speeds up to 10 gigabits.
With access to full fibre optic internet, customers will experience ultra-high-speed service that connects directly to their home or business, bringing symmetrical upload and download speeds right to your device, free of buffering.
“We know how important access to a fast internet connection is, and we are excited to serve as another provider option for Portage as we expand to more communities throughout Michigan,” says Ben Ruzick, Metronet government affairs director. “We know that Portage will quickly see the impact that service like ours can provide. With future-proof internet speeds, Portage is now powered with an infrastructure that will grow with the needs of the community, supporting future goals and achievements.”
Portage residents will see Metronet trucks throughout the area as construction activities expand throughout the community. Residents will receive communication by mail about construction activity in their neighborhood 30 days prior to starting. Additional messaging, such as yard signs, will also be provided to notify residents of when construction is beginning in their neighborhood. Metronet crews are identified by ID tags and branded Metronet vehicles.
Metronet plans to hire local market management positions, sales and customer service professionals and service technicians to support the Portage area. Those interested in joining the Metronet team can visit here to search available positions and to submit applications.
