Altice is the only internet service available in several regions of Connecticut, which makes the new company s plan especially problematic, the officials said. (Shutterstock)
CONNECTICUT State officials are blasting Altice, the primary internet provider for many Connecticut communities, for a plan they say will reduce upload speeds without offering a break in the pricing plan.
Altice s Optimum Online currently offers broadband internet upload speeds of 35 Mbps. That speed will be downgraded to speeds ranging from 5 to 20 Mbps on July 12, according to Sen. Bob Duff, Norm Needleman, James Maroney, and Rep. David Arconti. Along with State Broadband Policy Coordinator in the Office of Consumer Counsel Burt Cohen, the state officials ripped into the internet service provider s decision, citing increased need for fast internet service as life goes increasingly digital, for uploads as well as downloads.
