OVERLAND PARK, Kan. â In April, Google Fiber began offering 2 gigabits per second download speed for residential internet customers in 22 municipalities around Kansas City, Missouri.
The tech giant is the first internet service provider to offer speeds of 2Gbps in the area.
âSo far so good, weâve been really pleased by the response here. People are ready to go fast,â said Rachel Merlo, Google Fiberâs government and community affairs manager in Kansas City.
She met 41 Action News at a home where technicians were installing the new service.
