Some residents of Minneapolis, Minnesota will soon have access to
superfast Internet, thanks to US Internet, which has recently announced
that it will offer a mind-boggling 10Gbps broadband speed to both
residential and small-business owners in the city. Just to give you an
idea, this is 10 times the speed of Google Fiber, which is currently
available in Kansas City; Provo, Utah; and Austin, Texas.
“The launch of our 10 Gbps Internet service will make Minneapolis the
first city in the world to receive access to the Internet at speeds
never before experienced in our country, or any other country for that
matter,” U.S. Internet CEO Joe Caldwell said in a statement. The service
will be available for $400/month — there’s also a $99 installation fee.
The Minnetonka-based ISP, which has around 30,000 customers in
southwest Minneapolis, already offers 1Gbps broadband service for $65
per month to those customers. Local residents can sign up for the new
10Gbps service here.
