Metronet Service Installation Now Available to Residents and Businesses

Metronet today announced that residents and businesses in Bryan are the first in the state to have access to Metronet’s multi-gigabit speeds with service installation now available. In addition to Metronet’s current offerings of 1 gigabit per second, speeds up to 2 gigabits are now available for residents and businesses may choose speeds up to 10 gigabits. Customers located in Metronet’s initial construction areas may now sign up to be installed by visiting shop.metronet.com.

“Metronet is excited to officially deploy access to multi-gigabit speeds in Texas with Bryan as the first community to tap into Metronet’s 100 percent fiber optic network,” said Kris Smith, Government Affairs Director. “The City of Bryan is now supported by a future-proof infrastructure that has the ability to scale to even faster speeds, enhancing the online experience for residents while also having a direct positive impact on Bryan’s continued growth and economic development.”

As construction continues throughout Bryan, residents in construction areas will receive 30 days advance notice by mail about construction activity in their neighborhood. Metronet provides additional messaging, such as yard signs, to notify residents of when construction is beginning in their neighborhood. Metronet crews are marked by ID tags and branded vehicles.
