Metronet Connects First Moline Customers to 100 Percent Fiber Optic Internet

Metronet, the nation’s largest independently owned 100 percent fiber optic provider, today announced that ultra-high-speed fiber optic internet is now available to the first residents and businesses in Moline. As Metronet’s service becomes available throughout Moline, residents will have access to multi-gigabit speeds up to 2 gigabits; and businesses may access speeds up to 10 gigabits. Customers located in Metronet’s initial construction areas may now sign up for service installation by visiting Metronet.com.

“Moline’s residents and businesses now have the opportunity to experience our multi-gigabit fiber optic network of symmetrical upload and download internet speeds as we begin service installations,” said Ben Ruzick, Metronet Government Affairs Director. “We are thrilled for Moline to have access to internet service that will change day-to-day online life, making it faster and easier to connect with those closest to us. We look forward to providing another service option and a chance for you to love your internet.”

As Metronet continues construction throughout Moline, residents in construction areas will receive 30 days advance notice by mail about construction activity in their neighborhood. Metronet provides additional messaging, such as yard signs, to notify residents of when construction is beginning in their neighborhood. Metronet crews are marked by ID tags and branded vehicles.
