Q: Why is my internet slow after we got fiber installed?

With fiber we install the first piece of equipment for free, a Gigacenter, and it is installed usually in a utility closet. If you are having issues with your internet reaching different parts of the house we recommend to have an access point installed.

Q: Why is my internet so slow?

There are many reasons your internet could be slow. You may be using more bandwidth than what you are paying for, you could have too many devices hooked up to your internet, there could be someone streaming and using up all of your bandwidth or the problem could be that your wi-fi signal isn’t getting to all parts of your house. We recommend calling into our office and we can look into this for you.

Q: What is a Gigacenter/Gigahub and what is the difference between the two?

A Gigacenter is the black box that our techs installed in your home once you get Fiber. A Gigacenter is what all three services come out of. It is an ONT (Optical Network Terminal that also provides Wi-Fi. The Gigahub is also a black box but it has to have a Gigacenter in front of it or a cable modem. It is used by being bridged by ethernet from a Gigacenter or a cable modem. It is basically a wireless router/extender.
