Verizon Wireless has expanded its network with a new cell site to provide coverage and capacity along Routes 147, 157, and 159 in Middlefield, Connecticut.

Verizon Wireless has invested $145 million during the first six months of the year to enhance wireless capacity and coverage throughout the six states of New England, elevating the cumulative network investment in the region to more than $2 billion since 2000. Nationally the company invests more than $1 billion every 90 days to stay ahead of the growing demand for Verizon Wireless voice and data services, including picture messaging, text messaging, BroadbandAccess high-speed internet and V CAST service. The company's ongoing network investment now totals more than $40 billion nationally over the past seven years.

The claims that the BroadbandAccess Revision A can offer computer users high-speed wireless mobile broadband network, operating at average upload speeds between 500 and 800 kbps, and download speeds between 600 kbps and 1.4 mbps. V CAST brings video clips of TV shows, music on demand and other multimedia services to wireless phones over Verizon Wireless' high-speed EV-DO network.
