HUGO CONSTRUCTION

Hugo Town Fiber to the Home

ESTech is bringing Fiber Internet to the town of Hugo! Residents are going to love the difference! ESTech began engineering in March of 2022, and construction began at the end of December 2022. The new network access will provide all homes and businesses in Hugo with the opportunity to have Fiber to the Home (FTTH). We have now begun moving members on to this fiber network.

What’s Included

  • Fiber-Enhanced Speed – Uncapped, Ultra-fast, fiber-optic supplied internet connects to everything providing uninterrupted surfing, streaming, and high-bandwidth connectivity for work, school, and downtime
  • Fully Managed Access Point – With the provided GigaSpire device, ESTech delivers an unmatched WiFi network which allows us to proactively find and address issues before they ever impact your connection, ensuring an amazing experience
  • WiFi 6 – This state-of-the-art system delivers unmatched performance throughout your entire home providing seamless entertainment & gaming on multiple devices at the same time

What’s Needed
All current ESTech members will need to sign the Fiber Agreement to move forward with getting fiber to your home. We will be abandoning our old copper cable in the Flagler area after the fiber project is complete; therefore, your existing service WILL NOT function unless we can move it to the new fiber network. See the Fiber Agreement tab below to complete the necessary paperwork.

Ready to Sign-Up?
