GROUPE-ACCES – Expands its Wireless Broadband Internet Access Network from Brébeuf and Mont-Tremblant to include Huberdeau, Arundel and Weir

Montreal, March 31, 2009 – GROUPE-ACCES communications (GAC), today announced that it has expanded its wireless high-speed Internet services network from Brébeuf and Mont Tremblant to include Huberdeau, Arundel and Weir. Wireless broadband speeds of 0.5Mbps to 3Mbps are now available in these three areas. GAC is expanding its high-speed wireless network that already serves local businesses and residents in over sixty (60) areas in the Laurentians. Faster speeds will be available later this year.

"GAC has been the technology pioneer in the Laurentians for over five years and has a long history of being first in delivering high speed Internet services to customers in remote regions," said Mr. Aaron Remer, Director of GROUPE-ACCES communications. "We are expanding quickly based on the demand for dedicated high-speed Internet services from local businesses and residents of these three communities."

Because of its reach, broadband wireless technology can beam high-speed connections via microwave to places where wires would be difficult or uneconomical to install, such as across lakes or forests. The wireless system enables connectivity to any business or residence without structural barriers. By not having "last mile" access barriers to overcome, GROUPE-ACCES is able to offer Internet service to areas not serviced by traditional providers and is opening the Internet gates to thousands of new users.

In addition to its point-to-multi-point microwave service, GAC has added WiFi access as well as Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) services in some areas. The new WiFi and DSL service offerings extend the growing GROUPE-ACCES network and help empower people to connect effortlessly to their workplace and to those who matter most. This summer GAC will be also be offering its own Internet telephony service to enhance the current bundle of connectivity options.

"Our wireless network allows customers who previously couldn't have access to high speed Internet, the ability to have all of the services and amenities they are used at home or in their office, from their place of paradise" says Mr. Marvin Garellek, of GROUPE-ACCES communications.
