CHARLESTON Thanks to a new map developed by the West Virginia Broadband Enhancement Council, the public can see the parts of the state set to receive access to high-speed internet over the next 10 years.
The new Broadband Availability Map available at broadband.wv.gov shows where the state will receive access to broadband after the first phase of the Federal Communication Commission’s Rural Digital Opportunity Fund auction.
Nine companies were selected in the RDOF Phase I auction to expand high-speed internet to unserved parts of West Virginia. These companies will receive $362.1 million through the auction out of a possible $766 million for projects in 119,267 Census tracts.

And where does the promises of fiber go?Assuming it’s still a big focus, I’m currently in a Greenfield deployment for the most part except for a small pocket they had fiber before here with no growth.
Considering Frontier won a decent amount of the RDOF funding at the Gigabit level of service, I’m thinking some FTTP will be built out, at least

Looked at the Phase 1 map again. There s only 2 tiny blocks/properties that are going to get baseline in my town (no Gigabit). They used to say Frontier. They ve now been changed to SpaceX.
LEMPSTER â Work is underway in a Sullivan County town as part of an initiative to bring more reliable and high-speed internet service to New Hampshireâs rural areas that have struggled to reach individuals as life, school and work have transitioned online amid the ongoing novel coronavirus pandemic.
If you have driven through the southeast corner of the county within the past two months, chances are you may have come across the site of line crews associated with CavCommâs fiber division based in New Haven, Conn., and Tilson, a national network development and information infrastructure firm, parked alongside major roadways.
