Metronet today announced that 100% fiber optic internet is officially available to residents and businesses throughout Altamonte Springs. As Metronet’s service becomes available throughout the city, residents will have access to multi-gigabit speeds up to 2 gigabits; and businesses may access speeds up to 10 gigabits. Customers located in Metronet’s initial construction areas may now sign up for service installation online at metronet.com.

“More Florida residents can now tap into symmetrical upload and download speeds through Metronet’s 100% fiber internet connection that opens the door to a new, faster way of working, learning and streaming from home,” said Bill Gilliam, Metronet Florida General Manager. “We are grateful for the support of Mayor Bates, the city council, and the community as we begin serving homes and businesses throughout Altamonte Springs, bringing the city next-level connectivity with fiber optic internet.”
