Neighbors,
People naturally want to know when Google Fiber will be available in Raleigh
and how much it will cost. To date, I have not been able to get an answer
to either question. However, This information was broadcast this week in a
Triangle area business newsletter:
"Nineteen months after announcing that Google Fiber would be bringing
gigabit fiber to portions of North Carolina, the company has announced that
sign-ups are live in a limited portion of "the Triangle." According to the
Google Fiber website, sign-ups are now live for residents of Morrisville,
North Carolina, with additional community sign ups expected to go live in
the coming months.
"As elsewhere, users will have the option of 100 Mbps connections for $50 or
gigabit connections for $70. Gigabit lines & TV will cost $140, $10 more
than earlier markets. The full deployment of Google Fiber throughout the
Triangle is expected to take years.
"More detail can be found at the Google Fiber website. Users may also want
to peruse the Google Fiber apartment availability too."
Assuming this is correct, it still leaves us wondering when service will
start in our area.
