Yes you heard us correctly.  Gigabit done wirelessly is available!  The same great speeds you know and love with fiber are available wirelessly via fixed wireless.  An engineered wireless connection will bring stellar latency, fast downloads, and reliable connections that you can count on.  Fixed wireless is the best of both the fiber and wireless worlds.  Fiber is fast but expensive.  Wireless is cheap but unreliable.  Fixed wireless is your fast, reliable, affordable connection bringing you up to the gigabit world without the need to destroy your lawn burying cable.  Here’s where we have gigabit currently:

• Eureka Township (Cedar & 247th area)
• Farmington (developments north of 50 and Flagstaff)
• Farmington (office park northeast of 50 and pilot knob)
• Downtown Farmington
• Executive Estates neighborhood
• Empire (northeast and southeast of the water tower)
• Rosemount (northwest of 3 and 170th st)

More locations are being added monthly.  Check the pricing page for availability.

For Immediate Release

Minnesota’s State Department of Employment and Economic Development announced JTN will receive one of the 61 matching state grants offered for broadband development under year’s this round of funding.

Almost $100,000,000 was awarded with the aim of providing high speed internet service to more than 33,000 homes that lack sufficient wireline broadband service.

JTN was awarded $113,076 and is matching an additional $56,538 along with an equal contribution by Eureka Township.  The project provides service to Eureka Center, rural areas of Eureka Township, and Eureka Estates with service delivery to over 100 homes.

President Ben Blomgren confirmed the projects will be scheduled to begin in spring of 2023.  “We are pleased to be able to offer fiber-to-the-home to the residents of Eureka Township.  Construction will begin in spring of 2023.  The partnership with Eureka Township, initiative of residents, and a willingness by the State to fund communities on the edge of rural Minnesota was instrumental in seeing that this project was funded.  Broadband is an important element for rural areas as we saw during 2020.  We designed the network to be able to achieve future expansion with minimal additional capital costs as new funding sources are secured.  This is just the beginning of our footprint in the area.”

This project coincides with JTN’s privately-funded fiber-to-the-home construction in neighboring townships and complements its fixed wireless gigabit service offering scheduled to launch in more areas in early winter 2023.
