ANNAPOLIS, Md. â Maryland has launched the SpeedSurvey website.
It can be used to test internet speeds or to report an address that doesn t have service.
The information collected will then be used towards funding future projects, to expand high-speed broadband access for students and rural areas in the state. The data we obtain from the survey will help us better understand Marylanders needs as well as verify Federal Communications Commission data which will help our planning efforts and ultimately drive more federal dollars to the state, said Kenrick Gordon, Director of the Governor s Office of Rural Broadband.
