ABOUT THE PROJECT

Residents of a multi-dwelling-unit (MDU) high-rise in a low-income housing complex lacked high-speed internet. This limited critical access to online education, job opportunities, telehealth, and more. TeknoGRID, as the lead contractor, provided end-to-end services and consultation/guidance to provide residents with free high-speed Internet service. TeknoGRID also installed the infrastructure needed to support reliable, high-performance Internet access. Our services successfully provided a better quality of life and reliable IT for the residents.
