Project Status

What is the current project status?


As of September 15, 2011, the construction and outreach phases of the project are complete.   Final invoicing and reporting functions are nearing completion.

How can I find out if I will be covered by the expanded service?


You can find out if service is available at your address by contacting Bell or Xplornet.

Xplornet: www.xplornet.com or 1-866-841-6001

Bell Aliant: www.bell.ca or 1-866-242-0008

What if my address is not served by DSL or Fixed Wireless?


For residents not served by DSL or Fixed Wireless service, satellite service is an excellent alternative.  Advances in satellite technology have increased its capability and reduced price making it competitive with other alternatives.  Satellite service is available from Xplornet.

Will any more new infrastructure be built to serve areas where residents still cannot get service?


The Eastern Ontario Regional Network  will be expanding broadband Internet service in Prescott and Russell to provide higher capacity broadband service to its residents.
