Addressing the digital divide
In 2017, Arvig elected to accept a share of funding from the Federal Communications Commission’s Alternative Connect America Cost Model program, with the goal of bringing internet speeds of at least 25 Megabits per second (download) and 3 Megabits per second (upload) to rural areas in the Arvig service area. So far, Arvig has successfully built or improved internet networks in dozens of rural communities, with more areas targeted for improvement in the coming years.
