Confirmed via our PUC: Speed Connect leaving SD
Last week the FCC announced that Midco was the winning
bidder to receive a subsidy for providing broadband in many of the very high
cost rural CenturyLink areas in South Dakota. A chunk of the Flandreau
exchange is included in that coverage. My understanding is that Midco
will use a new generation fixed wireless product (up to 100 mbps) to meet their
obligation. It’s possible some of that coverage may serve part of your
area but it is way too early in that process to know.
This will NOT happen this year.
Thank you but CL is not available to many rural customers and no plans for several years.
