Depending on where you are in Vermont, your access to the internet and the speed of that connection vary dramatically. Tuesday on Vermont Edition, we look at how widely available high-speed internet is here, and the efforts to connect the so-called "final miles."
Our guest is Chris Campbell, executive director of the Vermont Telecommunications Authority. We also hear from Irv Thomae, chair of EC Fiber, which is testing an unusual business model to provide service in east-central Vermont.
