A Short History<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

In 2011 the Cummington Broadband Committee was formed to research among all options which high speed internet concept would be best for the town. In June 2018 The Committee became The Cummington Municipal Light Plant Board. The members appointed at that time were Allan Douglas (MLP Manager), Michael Perkins, Brenda Arbib, Scott Keith, and Maureen Tumenas. Since then the MLP Board has been elected <\/span>pursuant to the provisions of the Massachusetts General Laws c. 164.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Cummington MLP board actively pursued the options available to the town of Cummington for a FTTH (fiber to the home) network. An intergovernmental contract was signed in June 2017 with Westfield Gas + Electric MLP for Fiber Network Design and Construction. The first subscribers to the FTTH network were live in March of 2020. Currently, January 2026, we have 381 subscribers for internet and 101 for VOIP phone.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our ISP (Internet Service Provider) is Westfield\u2019s Whip City Fiber (WCF) and they are bringing Internet at the speed of light to the Town of Cummington.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
