MetroNet Begins Construction in Romeoville

Fiber-optic communications service provider, MetroNet, has officially begun construction of a multimillion-dollar 100% fiber network in Romeoville.

With construction of MetroNet’s state-of-the-art fiber infrastructure commencing, Romeoville is officially on its way to becoming one of the fortunate communities nationwide to enjoy the economic and lifestyle benefits of a “Gigabit City.”

Crew members working with MetroNet have begun posting informational yard signs on individual properties in areas of early construction to communicate activity with area residents.

Residential consumers in Romeoville will soon have access to Internet speeds of up to 1 Gibabit per second, interactive fiber TV service with incredible picture quality and reliable feature-rich fiber phone service, all at affordable rates.

MetroNet also plans to offer a full suite of business communications services ranging from a scalable hosted PBX phone solution for small and medium businesses all the way up to customized network services tailored to the specific needs of larger customers.

Company Vice President and General Manager Kevin Stelmach explained that MetroNet will run 100% fiber optic lines direct from source to consumers in Romeoville. A complete fiber optic network using glass fibers—instead of conventional copper cable lines—offers a bandwidth much greater than other available technologies. More bandwidth brings greater speed and consistency. Stelmach said the expanded connectivity can dramatically impact a city’s economic advancement in areas of business growth, education, medical services and residential quality of life.

Residents can register online to receive an update when MetroNet begins installation in their neighborhood at metronetinc.com/romeoville or by calling MetroNet locally at 844-675-9558. They can also check their address for serviceability at any time or sign up for services early by going to www.metronetinc.com and clicking “order now.” Early sign-up ensures residents that their home will be among the first for installation when MetroNet service reaches their neighborhood.
