The FCC’s new National Broadband Map shows internet availability data nationwide, and for the first time, accepts input from consumers like you! Go to BroadbandMap.gov, search for your home or small business. If the reported service or speed is not available for purchase, submit a challenge to correct the map. Help Improve the map! More information at FCC.gov/BroadbandData/consumers.
The FCC wants to make sure that all locations are represented on the National Broadband Map. Search for your home or small business at BroadbandMap.gov. If the information about your location is wrong, or the location is missing from the map, submit a challenge to correct it! More information at FCC.gov/BroadbandData/consumers.
The easiest way for stakeholders to be involved is by looking at the maps and verifying their information. They can follow the instructions outlined below and reach out to our office if they need assistance (ECD.Broadband@tn.gov). Though we are not the administrators of the map, we can help filter questions or troubleshoot should they have questions. We are asking Tennesseans to complete any challenges on their addresses by January 13. I’ve included the fact sheet in this email as well with some additional info on the process. I’d certainly appreciate your help in pushing this information out!
