Vermont communities are actively installing wireless networks to bring Internet services and bandwidth to remote users. Several communities are using the coop model, similar to what Montpelier has done. Several have enterprising entrepreneurs who are developing a robust service.
Both models are bringing essential service to Rural Vermont.
Significant events in the life of MontpelierNet: MontpelierNet is a wireless network being developed in the City of Montpelier, Vermont, the smallest State Capitol in the USA. MontpelierNet is a point-to-point backbone network delivering high speed Internet to businesses in the downtown area. The second phase is WiFi services to the retail and office community and the third phase is public WiFi access. Currently the Vermont State House is WiFi capable.
