Havelock Powered with Metronet’s 100% Fiber Optic Internet

Service Now Available

Metronet today announced that 100% fiber optic internet is now available to residents and businesses in initial construction areas throughout Havelock. As Metronet progresses through the construction process, service will be made available to more homes and businesses throughout the city. With access to service, residents will have access to multi-gigabit speeds up to 2 gigabits and businesses will have access to speeds up to 10 gigabits.

With access to 100% fiber optic internet, customers will experience ultra-high-speed service that connects directly to their home or business, bringing symmetrical upload and download speeds right to their device, free of buffering. Customers located in Metronet’s initial construction areas may now sign up for service installation online at metronet.com.

“We are thrilled to officially begin connecting residents in Havelock to our 100% fiber optic network as service installations start in the community,” said Telly Whitfield, Metronet Government Affairs Director. “As we’ve worked to bring our 100% service and another provider option to Havelock, we’re grateful for the support we’ve received from the community. Metronet is ready to serve Havelock and deliver our unparalleled fiber optic speeds, reliability, and customer service to residents and businesses throughout the community.”

Havelock residents will see Metronet trucks throughout the area as construction activities expand throughout the community. Residents will receive communication by mail about construction activity in their neighborhood 30 days prior to starting. Additional messaging, such as yard signs, will also be provided to notify residents of when construction is beginning in their neighborhood. Metronet crews are identified by ID tags and branded Metronet vehicles.

Metronet plans to hire local market management positions, sales and customer service professionals and service technicians to support the Havelock area. Those interested in joining the Metronet team can visit metronet.com/careers to search available positions and to submit applications.
