The Calhoun County
Community Network is pleased to announce that high speed wireless internet
service is available in Calhoun County. The Community Network was established
from a TIF grant in October 2002.
Since that time, the Community Network has trained over 800 citizens on computer
applications and maintained five open labs for free access to technology.
Because of the initial grant and contributions from collaborative partners a
wireless infrastructure has been built connecting Calhoun County. Testengeer
Internet Services has partnered with the network to bring high speed wireless
internet service to areas of the county where service was not available. For
every wireless customer that signs up, Testengeer will make a donation to the
Community Network for the continuation of computer training courses and open
labs.
Residential wireless service is available for $49 a month at a connection rate
of 256k with bursts up to 1M. Business service fees begin at $99 a month with
various levels of connectivity available.
There is a one time charge of $99 to install the equipment. Interested
individuals may contact Donna Nelson at 361-573-1102, to sign up for wireless
service. For more information regarding the Calhoun County Community Network
services and operations, please call Laurie Lowman at 361-553-4301. The Calhoun
County Community Network and Testengeer Internet Services are pleased to bring
this access to technology to your area and thank you for your donation.
