Government Technology Video Focuses on Chattanooga Community Fiber

Date: 10 Jul 2012 | posted in: MuniNetworks | 0 Facebooktwitterredditmail

Government Technology interviews some local officials in Chattanooga about its network - the nation's first network offering 1 gigabit connections throughout the entire community. The slowest Internet connection available, 30/30 Mbps, is available in bundles that rival Comcast and AT&T in price. But the Comcast and AT&T services are pathetic in comparison - particularly when it comes to customer service.

We published an extensive case study explaining how Chattanooga EPB built its network.
