USF deploys mobile Wi-Fi station in Hanover to support hurricane recovery

In a swift response to the devastation caused by Hurricane Melissa, the Universal Service Fund (USF) launched a mobile Wi-Fi and charging station in Montpelier, Hanover, on November 7. This initiative aims to restore critical connectivity for residents who have been cut off from communication since the hurricane struck on October 28. The USF’s community Wi-Fi infrastructure suffered extensive damage during the storm, prompting the agency to adopt Starlink Wi-Fi technology to bridge the digital gap in affected areas.
