Google expands Google Fiber service



On Habré for a long time there was no mention of Google Fiber, the project "Corporation of Good" to provide high-speed connection to the network at 1 Gbit / s. So, all this time the project team did not eat their bread for nothing. An extension of the service to the neighboring town of Kansas Olathe has been prepared. The population of the city is about 128 thousand people. In general, this indicates that the corporation is not going to fold the project, on the contrary, it is expanding.

And it seems that soon there will be more news on the project, perhaps even more significant. In its blog, the company announced that Google Fiber will be available soon in other cities located near Kansas. Yesterday, the Olathe city authorities approved an agreement with Google on the introduction of Google Fiber. The company's blog says that this locality is one of the fastest growing in the region in terms of economic development. According to representatives of Google and the city authorities, the appearance of high-speed connection to the Network will have an even greater impact (in a positive way) on the development of the economy of the city and the region as a whole.

A large amount of work is needed to implement the service, so now it’s difficult for Google to say when Google Fiber will be available in the new settlement.

As for the subscribers of the service, they pay $ 120 per month for a gigabit connection to the Network + a connection to the TV service. You can refuse the TV, leaving only the connection to the network. It will cost $ 70 per month.

It may well be that Google has already passed the stage of testing the service, and is now going to carry out the expansion. Apparently, the service is very popular among users, although, of course, the connection price cannot be called low.
