ONEIDA, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — A partnership is bringing high-speed internet to residents on the Oneida Reservation.
Oneida Nation is joining forces with Nsight to build a broadband network to bring reliable, fast and affordable internet service to the community.
“The Oneida Nation strives to continually improve communication and quality of life on the Oneida Reservation. As part of our expansion and improvement of community outreach we have partnered with Nsight to offer high-speed internet and look forward to supporting our community members,” said Dr. Shane Archiquette, CIO of Oneida Nation.
Initial plans will build a wireless broadband network, which will broadcast internet to homes via two towers on the reservation. The project will also provide public Wi-Fi at both the pow wow grounds and near Oneida Lake. This would allow high-speed access in a shorter timeframe, while the entities continue to work toward the longer-term goal of constructing fiber throughout the reservation.
Additional details will be shared as they become available including how to sign up for the service.
