Great Auk Wireless Lights Up Putney Road
Phase I of III Phase Brattleboro Deployment Gives Businesses Choice to Cut Cord
Brattleboro, VT - Businesses on Putney Road, one of Brattleboro’s most trafficked areas, now have more options when it comes to choosing high-speed broadband Internet service providers. Great Auk Wireless has announced that it has “lit up” Putney Road, representing the completion of Phase I of a three phase rollout slated for downtown Brattleboro. With its expanding high-speed wireless footprint, Great Auk Wireless now provides service to nearly 400 subscribers in Lake Dunmore, the Manchester and Stratton areas and now, in increasing areas, downtown Brattleboro.
Great Auk Wireless’ Putney Road phase gives local businesses a wireless high-speed broadband option that can replace existing cable or DSL services for as little as $10 a month. With Great Auk Wireless service, users will be able to “cut the cord” and move about town on the same wireless network included in the $10 monthly access fee.
According to Josh Garza, Chief Executive Officer at Great Auk Wireless, “We’re really excited to offer Brattleboro residents and businesses a local wireless Internet service option at a cost that makes broadband access, let alone wireless broadband access, available to everyone. Subscribers will be able to connect to the Great Auk Wireless network any where the Great Auk Wireless network exists.”
Generally, businesses have greater broadband needs than a typical residential user.
