Residents of north central Gage County in southeast Nebraska will soon have fiber optic internet.
The Hudson Oaks, TX. based company of NextLink Internet will soon be on the ground, providing what they believe to be some of the fastest and most reliable service to those in rural Gage County. Oliver Borchers-Williams is an AmeriCorps lead Nebraska Fellow serving southeast Nebraska. He talked about the benefits to the project.
“This will feed nearly 1,00 homes with fiber,” Borchers-Williams said. “This is fast, reliable, 2-gig fiber which is truly next generation technology that’ll be coming to these rural residents. NextLink also will be offering plans in Gage County around $49-$99, so it’s truly a bang for your buck.”
