Broadband Questionnaire

Posted on by Shane Steindorf

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.

Go to https://www.co.jackson.wi.us – click on the “Broadband” tab 

If you do not have access to the internet, please go to your district community building and ask staff for assistance.
