Vermont wireless: MontpelierNet leading the way

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.

MontpelierNet

The Vermont State House has WiFi serving the legeslature and guests. You can check out the MontpelierNet activity of MontpelierNet

We are alson appreciative of the support from Signal Advertising of Montpelier.

We are able to provide T1 bandwidth for $450/mnth, one of the lowest rates in the state if not the lowest. Wireless is a very practical way to distribute bandwidth in rural Vermont. And it is a very practical and cost effective way to distrubute bandwidth in urban areas.

Our partners in this venture are Summitt Technologies, SoverNet, and Airpath.

For information about MontpelierNet contact Claude at claude.stone@gmail.com or claude@morsefarm.com

And you are always welcome at Morse Farm Maple Sugarworks in Montpelier, Vermont.
