Westman Communications Group will be increasing their internet speeds staring February 1st.
The upgrades are aimed at enabling faster downloading and uploading speeds on current internet packages as well as adding newer, faster ones.
The improvements come from an infrastructure upgrade to DOSIS 3.1 technology.
Customers will notice better speeds during peak hours when more people are using the internet.
Manager of marketing at Westman Communications Group, Courtney Baxter said that these upgrades will be available in Dauphin and other communities that already have Westman.
“Where we offer our speeds is within the communities, we do serve Dauphin. Anywhere rural we don`t have technology available. Unfortunately we can’t offer our services to those areas, we do fiber connections. We don’t have wireless services at this time so our ability to offer to anyone outside of Dauphin is not there.”
Customers will automatically see faster speeds on current packages starting the 31st.
