Community notes:
- The technology originally planned to support fibre delivery to Tancook Islands was via high-capacity microwave radio. After analysis, Bell decided not to introduce this new technology due to IT costs and the limited opportunity for use in the network.
- As of April 2024, 176 civic addresses remain.
- Without the high-capacity link, Bell will not be able to deploy a fibre to the home solution to residents of the island.
- Bell's plan is to expand fixed wireless to all residents. This is a service that some residents already have in place.
- Please check for Satellite Internet Service Rebate Program eligibility as an interim solution and learn more here.
