Metronet announced today that residents and businesses in the North Carolina communities of Fayetteville, Greenville and Raeford, are the first in the state to have access to even faster internet with Metronet’s ultra-high-speed multi-gigabit service. In addition to Metronet’s current offerings of one gigabit per second, speeds up to two gigabits are now available for residents and businesses may choose speeds up to 10 gigabits. All Metronet speeds are symmetrical, which is an important detail for high quality video conferencing, gaming and online learning.

The updates to multi-gigabit speeds were made with no disruption to the current Fayetteville, Greenville, and Raeford infrastructure. Anyone interested in switching to Metronet’s multi-gigabit speeds can do so online at shop.metronet.com.

“Metronet is proud to officially deploy access to multi-gigabit speeds to our communities in North Carolina,” said Metronet CEO John Cinelli in a press release. 
“Multi-gigabit speeds will change the way the communities we serve spend their time online from the office and at home. These communities now have access to the fastest internet speeds available that will improve the quality of internet service and way of life. Fayetteville, Greenville, and Raeford are supported by a future-proof infrastructure that has the ability to scale to even faster speeds, supporting the continued growth and economic development of each community for decades.”

Metronet was able to bring the faster internet speeds after starting installation in January of 2022.
