2013-04-10 09:03:00| Telecompaper Headlines

(Telecompaper) Google has announced that Austin, Texas, will be its next fibre city, with the first homes connected to the 1Gbps service by mid-2014. Customers who pay an upfront fee to be connected will receive at least 5Mbps service free for seven years. On the same day, Texas-based AT&T announced that it would build a 1Gbps fibre network in Austin as part of its previously announced Project VIP expansion. AT&T expects that its expanded fibre plans in Austin will be granted the same terms and conditions as Google.
