BANGOR, Maine, Sept. 28, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- GoNetspeed (formerly OTELCO), a high-speed fiber Internet provider, held a ribbon cutting ceremony yesterday at its new office space located at 396 Griffin Road, Suite 110 in Bangor.

GoNetspeed plans to build more than 115 miles of its high-speed Internet network in the Bangor, Brewer, Orono and Old Town areas – passing more than 11,000 homes and businesses. Service will be available in Brewer by early October and construction in Bangor will begin this winter. GoNetspeed expects to grow its 60-member team in Bangor by adding 25 new employees over the next two years.

"The importance of high speed, reliable Internet access has never been more evident than it is right now," commented GoNetspeed CEO Richard Clark. "With its symmetrical upload and download speeds, fiber is uniquely positioned to facilitate things like remote work, distance learning, and telemedicine. It's simply the fastest, most reliable option available today and we're excited to bring it to Bangor and Brewer and to employ area residents at our growing Bangor office."

GoNetspeed is investing in FTTP (Fiber to the Premises) infrastructure in communities across the state, and service is already available in portions of Gorham, Windham, Westbrook, Biddeford, Saco, Gray, New Gloucester, Scarborough, Falmouth, Yarmouth, and Cumberland.

What is Fiber Internet?
Fiber Internet offers symmetrical speeds, meaning that both download and upload are equally fast. The connectivity challenges that people experience with using video conferencing associated with telecommuting, on-line learning and telemedicine have emphasized the importance of fast upload speeds. GoNetspeed offers the fastest residential Internet speeds available, ranging from 250 Mbps to 1 Gbps (1,000 Mbps). For businesses, GoNetspeed can customize speeds beyond Gigabit capability if necessary.
