The New Hampshire Electric Cooperative is moving into the Internet business, partnering with a satellite-based web provider to provide high speed connections to customers.
PLYMOUTH, N.H. (AP) -- Co-op spokesman Seth Wheeler says he's received questions from many customers about whether the co-op can provide Internet service. He says 15-thousand to 20-thousand co-op customers still rely on dial-up Internet access, because D-S-L or cable connections are not available where they live. The Co-op is working with WildBlue, a satellite-based Internet provider, to get customers hooked up. Wheeler says home installations are expected to begin in late spring. The Co-op serves 118 New Hampshire communities.
