Broadband in Nebraska The Nebraska State Broadband Plan has been developed to increase high speed internet access across the state. The Nebraska Universal Service Fund will target underserved rural communities that lack adequate network infrastructure to deliver adequate cable or fiber connectivity. The goal is to provide minimum 25 mbps downloads speeds by 2020 to 90% of homes.
