Not sure Fidium is in Montpelier, but I know Consolidated Communications offers fiber. I only know a couple of people using it and it seems fine. Comcast offers similar speeds over cable too I think.

Fidium = Consolidated in the same way that XFINITY = Comcast. It's just a branding thing.

Ah good to know. I saw this https://www.fidiumfiber.com/fiber-internet-Montpelier-vt, maybe just a marketing thing though.

I’m close to Bennington on the southern end of the state so I can’t comment on Fidium in your area, but I have had Fidium for close to 4mo and I love them.

Been through 2 storms that knocked out power. As the power returned I had internet.

I’m on the lowest tear plan at $35 and I got 2 Wi-Fi routers with it. I use streaming services for tv and have a ton of smart plugs and cameras and I haven’t noticed anything buffering or working slow.

We get flyers for fidium in the mail in Montpelier. I would hope they have service here though it’d be hysterical if they’re wasting mailers on a non serviced area.
