Broadbandnow.com research analysis indicates that about 23 percent of Mississippi households lack an internet connection. C Spire plans to change that with Fixed Wireless Access (FWA), which leverages the extra capacity and speed of its 5G wireless network to deliver a reliable high-speed home internet experience to areas in Mississippi where traditional fiber broadband or cable infrastructure does not exist.

“Reliable internet service is no longer optional to support opportunities for education, economic development, and technological opportunities in communities we serve,” said Craig Jackson, senior vice president and general manager of consumer markets for C Spire. “The launch of 5G Home Internet is another way C Spire is adding value for our customers and bridging the digital divide by increasing connectivity in our home state.”

C Spire is expanding rural broadband access across Mississippi through a strategic partnership with Inseego. The Inseego 5G Wavemaker FX3110 indoor cellular router delivers reliable, high-speed internet to homes, and supports up to 64 connected devices.

"5G FWA is transforming home internet by providing unparalleled speed and reliability, ensuring that every household can enjoy seamless connectivity,” stated Steve Harmon, Chief Revenue Officer at Inseego. “We at Inseego envision a world where high-speed, reliable internet is accessible to all, transforming how we live, work, and play. Partnerships with 5G home FWA pioneers like C Spire make this vision a reality."

Key features of C Spire’s 5G Home Internet include:

• Download speeds up to 100Mbps
