As regular readers of the forum probably know, the town of Moultonborough has been conducting an internet speed test all summer. The goal is to understand where the infrastructure holes and poor capacity areas are, before decisions about improvement investments are made.
Over 400 have taken the test, representing about 10% of the properties. The campaign is coming to an end after Labor Day weekend and we’re asking one last time for participants. I’ve attached a map that shows the locations where tests have been run. There has been pretty good participation throughout the town, but there are some holes to fill. It only takes a few minutes.
Click this link to take, or retake the test. Flash support is required. Repeat tests are averaged and max speed is also noted.
If you or someone you know cannot get fixed wired Internet (Cable or DSL), please send the address and contact info to
iwantbroadband@roadrunner.com Finding the unserved is a top priority.
Here are the locations missing from our set of data, where we’d most like someone to take the test in the next few days.
1. Bean road and offshoots, towards the Sandwich line, especially accessed via Old Harvard Rd.
2. Route 109, especially Cloudview Drive, Abenaki Lane, the Bald Peak Colony Club, Severance and Caverly Road.
3. In the area southeast of downtown and Route 25, like Randell, Ben Berry and Bodge Hill Roads.
4. Those along Holland St, north from the Town Hall to the Sandwich line.
5. Areas around the airport, such as Evans Road and Summit View Dr.
6. We could use more points near Lake Kanasatka, especially Brick Kiln, Red Hill Rd, Sibley and Bishop Shores Rd.
7. Down Moultonborough Neck, we need data from the areas near Gruenwald, Iroquois and Swallow Point Roads and Dow Island.
