Norwood Light Broadband Approaches 900 Gig-Speed Customers as Fiber Expansion Gains Momentum

With more than 60% of the town now eligible for Gig-speed fiber, Norwood Light Broadband continues to expand access while helping residents and businesses enjoy the benefits of a modern, future-ready network.

Gig-speed internet means your whole household can be online at the same time without slowdowns. It means clear streaming with no buffering, smooth gaming, quick web browsing, and reliable video calls when working from home. Even when kids, parents, and grandparents are all connected at once, the connection stays fast and steady. Simply put, Gig-speed fiber delivers the speed and reliability today’s families need—and it’s available in Norwood now.

“Our investment in fiber is delivering real results,” said Dan Morrissey, Superintendent of Norwood Light Department. “Customers are seeing dramatically faster speeds, and just as importantly, they’re rediscovering the value of local service and support.”

As the fiber network expands, Norwood Light Broadband is increasingly winning customers from larger national providers. With Gig speeds now available, the department can compete on performance and competitive pricing while offering something the big companies cannot: responsive, community-based customer service.

“Speed matters, but service matters just as much,” said Morrissey. “When customers can call and speak to a real person right here in Norwood, it makes a difference.”

As legacy video services are phased out, Norwood Light Broadband is actively supporting customers through the transition to streaming. The department has been hosting “Learn to Stream” sessions throughout the community, helping residents understand their options and feel confident navigating streaming platforms.

In addition, Norwood Light Broadband technicians provide hands-on support during fiber installations, ensuring customers’ streaming services are properly connected and working before they leave the home. Many households who pair Gig-speed fiber with streaming services are finding they can reduce their monthly bills while gaining greater flexibility in how they watch television.

“Streaming gives customers more control,” Morrissey added. “We’re not just upgrading infrastructure – we’re guiding people through the transition and helping many of them save money in the process.”

Looking ahead, Norwood Light Broadband’s next phase of expansion focuses on bringing fiber upgrades to larger apartments and condominium complexes throughout town, with the goal of completing those projects this year.

Key benefits of Norwood Light’s Fiber Service include:

• Symmetrical Gig-speed internet

• Increased reliability and future-ready bandwidth

• Improved performance for remote work, gaming, and streaming

• Local, community-owned customer support

• Competitive pricing and no hidden fees

With nearly 900 customers already enjoying Gig speeds and thousands more eligible, Norwood is steadily building one of the most connected communities in the region.
