Pre-registration Begins For Mississippi Gigabit Fiber Service

Regional wireless carrier C Spire have big plans, they’re looking to bring gigabit fiber to nine cities in Mississippi and residents in those areas can now pre-register for the service. This is of course a big deal for local residents who can get the service, but it also brings hope to many other cities as providers start installing the high performance, high speed networks in more and more locations.

Offering speeds typically 100x faster than commonly available with incredible upload and download rates to all users. All you need to do is put down a $10 deposit for the service and pick a package. C Spire will offer up $80 for internet only and charge up to $160 for a bundle that includes internet, home phone and cable TV services.

Construction will begin once enough neighbourhoods have registered and paid their deposits. Residents will be able to keep track of the progress of signups and roll out via a special map.
