Wisconsin

In Wisconsin, approximately 94.90% of the state has internet service with speeds of 15 Mbps available for purchase through internet service providers; however, approximately 25.10% of the state’s residents have little to no internet connection readily available to them. Some of those with limited internet access have dial-up or legacy copper DSL internet service, but their internet is so slow that streaming, video conferencing, online gaming and other activities requiring high-speed internet are out of reach.
