"Astound Broadband has launched fixed wireless access (FWA) service to provide broadband and Wi-Fi services to more than 26,000 homes in the northern California communities of Auburn Davis, Granite Bay, Lincoln, Newcastle, Penryn, and Roseville, all of which are in Yolo and Placer counties. This is Astound Broadband's first offering in the Davis market. Astound said its new fixed wireless network includes more than 2,000 homes in predominantly rural areas that, until now, did not have access to broadband and Wi-Fi."
"Homes in the area now have access to the company's Wi-Fi and data speeds up to 500 Mbps, the company said. The offering is priced at $40 per month with a three-year price guarantee. Data is unlimited and there are no contracts. It includes eero whole-home Wi-Fi equipment. The Astound announcement said low-income families can apply for the company's Internet First service. If eligible, these households can get 150 Mbps service for $19.95 per month, with three months free."
