For Texans Only: Grande Communications

If you live in Texas, often considered the Telecom Capital of the US, you can choose Grande Communications as your home phone company and benefit from an all-new state-of-the-art fiber optic network with blazing speed.

Grande features "Fiber to the curb" technology, which connects a maximum of 24 homes to a broadband line, in contrast to the 500 homes that share bandwidth on other service providers' lines.

Grande's network is monitored 24/7 to make sure it is always up.

Local home service packages include free calling to other Grande subscribers - called the Grande Family Network, one low rate for toll calling across the state of Texas, and a wide selection of calling features including customized ring tones.

Bundled phone and Internet packages are also available at considerable cost savings.
