FORETHOUGHT.net Set to Debut Upgraded FTTH Network in Town of Gypsum Starting in the Buckhorn Neighborhood

TOWN OF GYPSUM, Colo., Oct. 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- FORETHOUGHT.net, a leading independent broadband service provider in Colorado, today announced it has upgraded its Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) network in the Town of Gypsum starting in the Buckhorn neighborhood. "By building the Fiber-to-the-Home broadband network, we are taking an important step in securing our Colorado community's long-term vitality and sustainability," says Jawaid Bazyar, president of FORETHOUGHT.net.

According to the town's Facebook page, the Town of Gypsum is committed to serving and protecting opportunities for business, recreation, and its community. "What we have heard is that everybody's had it with their current connections and lack of connectivity," said Bazyar "Communities like Gypsum deserve the same internet connectivity options as those in larger communities. FORETHOUGHT.net is committed to reducing the digital divide, and today we are one step closer."

The FORETHOUGHT.net FTTH network is set to provide residents who opt in with up to 1 gigabit of upload and download speeds. To opt in, residents sign up online at https://FORETHOUGHT.net/gypsum for a deposit of $99 per household and have the option to include data and telephone service on the FORETHOUGHT.net FTTH network.

Like many other rural communities, residents of the Town of Gypsum have had to rely on DSL, dial-up or satellite where weather could affect the quality of the connection with noticeable lack of investment from incumbents.

"FORETHOUGHT.net has ambitious plans to light up entire communities throughout rural Colorado," Bazyar said. "The Town of Gypsum has been great to work with, and we look forward to continued partnership moving forward." FORETHOUGHT.net expects the network to be fully upgraded by mid-fall 2018.

The Fiber Broadband Association found in a 2015 study that homes that are fiber connected jump in value.
