Broadband Questionnaire
Is your internet fast enough?
Access to the internet is vital for the economic health and growth of the Ho-Chunk Nation. Yet many homes and businesses have no internet or internet service speeds that fall below federal standards. The Ho-Chunk Nation is committed to working with local government and internet service providers to improve internet access & speed for all.
We are asking residents and businesses to take a speed test and Questionnaire to help identify areas of greatest need.
Please do this today! It will take about 3-5 minutes.
