Please take the test to help get better broadband in Stevens County
You’ve all been living, working and learning at home. And we all want faster internet. But in many parts of Stevens County, internet access is an issue, and it's more evident now during this pandemic.
The Stevens County / Spokane Tribe Broadband Action Team (BAT) in partnership with the Washington State Broadband Office, is launching a county-wide crowdsourcing broadband speed test.
It takes about a minute to do. You can do it more than once, and it averages your speed.
Take the test and share the link! https://expressoptimizer.net/public/
There is no deadline to do the test. But the sooner it's done, the more data we can start collecting. Debra Hansen, executive director of BAT, said, “This will be an important component in any grant application, and immensely helpful for planning (and getting) broadband.”
Don’t have internet? Email Debra at debra.hansen@wsu.edu or telephone her at Cell: (509) 680-7608 and she will get you on the map.
And please share with friends and neighbors.
