Why the Name 1Velocity?

In Uncategorized on December 15, 2009 by Nate Rosenberg

1Velocity was founded by former IT professionals used to dealing with legacy carriers, so we do things the way an IT person would want them done.

The name 1Velocity comes from the fact that we do not oversubscribe our network, so our customers always get the same speeds no matter how busy the network is. The connection never slows down. You get one speed, or one velocity, always.

We do other things the way an IT professional would want them, too. We don’t block ports or do packet-shaping. We hand-off Layer 1 Ethernet, and there are zero hops between customer locations on our network.

We’re flexible and strive to be easy to work with. When you call support, you get a network engineer who can isolate and solve the problem with you. Every customer gets an escalation list including the CEO’s cell phone. And since we own our own network, we don’t pass you off to someone else.

1Velocity Top ISP in Nevada

1Velocity debuted this week on SpeedTest.net‘s list of the Top 10 ISPs in Nevada at number one. We have average download and upload speeds twice as fast as any other carrier in the state. We are also the top-ranked ISP by SpeedTest.net users.

SpeedTest.net is a third-party website for testing Internet connection speeds and rating ISPs. After users test their Internet connection speed, they are also asked to rate their ISP and can compare their results to other carriers in the area.

1Velocity is a Nevada-based metro Ethernet carrier pioneering the use of millimeter-wave wireless fiber for Ethernet private line service and Internet Access currently serving businesses, governments, and other carriers in Las Vegas and Reno.

Earlier this year, one of our customers alerted us to the fact that 1Velocity was ranked number one in Las Vegas. Now, with customers in both Las Vegas and Reno, we have been added to the list for all of Nevada and have debuted at number one.

In large part, this reflects 1Velocity’s focus on serving larger businesses, government agencies, and other telecommunications carriers. Our customers are some of the largest bandwidth users in the state, and they demand big, fast connections. We were especially honored to see that SpeedTest.net users rated us so highly.

Thank you to our customers for rating us as the best ISP in Nevada.
