Fast internet is coming to Georgetown. Are you ready?
With GFiber officially expanding into Georgetown, business owners across the city are celebrating. And for good reason. Access to 1 to 8 Gig internet with no data caps or contracts opens up a world of opportunity for small businesses.
But here’s the real question: Will your business be ready to take full advantage?
Most business networks in Central Texas weren’t built for that kind of speed or for the cybersecurity threats that come with increased connectivity.
The risks of “plug and play” thinking
It’s tempting to think that faster internet solves all your problems. But it can actually expose new ones:
-
Outdated routers and firewalls that can’t handle Gig speeds
-
Unsecured remote access that leaves doors wide open
-
Poorly configured cloud platforms that waste time and money
-
No backup or continuity strategy in place for downtime or ransomware
These aren’t minor annoyances. They’re productivity killers and security gaps, and they cost Central Texas businesses every single day.

5 Steps to Prepare for GFiber (Without Getting Overwhelmed)
1. Assess your existing network hardware
Most SMB-grade routers and firewalls won’t handle 1+ Gig throughput reliably.
2. Run a security health check
Make sure your firewalls, MFA, antivirus, and backups are working together—not just installed.
3. Upgrade your WiFi
Don’t bottleneck your new internet speed with an outdated wireless access point.
4. Verify your Microsoft 365 settings
A properly secured and optimized tenant means less risk and more productivity.
5. Get proactive IT support
Waiting until something breaks is too late. We’ll help you create a roadmap that matches your growth.
