Technology and connectivity<br />
is so very important<br />
in this day and age.<br />
Luckily, <strong>Kaslo</strong> has access<br />
to a fibre network that is as<br />
good as it gets. The <strong>Kaslo</strong> infoNet Society (KiN) is<br />
a <strong>Kaslo</strong>-based nonprofit Internet Service Provider<br />
(ISP) that is unique in Canada. Despite challenging<br />
terrain each subscribing home or business is connected<br />
to the Internet with high speed fibre cable,<br />
at costs below<br />
that charged by<br />
the major telecom<br />
companies.<br />
Expansion of<br />
the system continues<br />
each year,<br />
replacing existing<br />
wireless service<br />
with much<br />
higher capacity<br />
fibre and serving<br />
homes that<br />
wireless Internet<br />
can’t reach.<br />
New residents<br />
of the area are<br />
finding they can<br />
have well-paid<br />
urban-based employment<br />
while<br />
enjoying life in a clean and picturesque environment.<br />
Our high-speed internet makes working<br />
from home possible.<br />
As Internet has become an essential service, KiN<br />
has been working continuously to improve reliability<br />
of its system, even during power outages.<br />
With the installation of a large generator, the Kemball<br />
building offices enjoy power during outages.<br />
In addition to high speed and reliable internet,<br />
subscribers have access to the Voice-over-Internet<br />
telephone service at a fraction of the cost charged<br />
by telephone companies, and video conferencing<br />
running on a local server. Monitoring of essential<br />
services such as water systems and security equipment<br />
are recently added features of KiN’s fibre<br />
network.<br />
(KLIC) The Kootenay Lake Innovation Centre<br />
has a work-sharing space in the Kemball. The notfor-profit<br />
society designs and implements programs<br />
that serve the community, both here and<br />
worldwide online, like last year's impressive live<br />
music series organized in conjunction with the<br />
Langham Cultural Society.<br />
