What Kinetic offers in Glen Rose
Kinetic runs two kinds of line in Glen Rose, and its FCC filing gives each a very different ceiling:
| Technology | Kinetic locations in Glen Rose | Highest speed in Kinetic's filing |
|---|---|---|
| Fiber | 930 locations | 2,000/2,000 Mbps |
| DSL over copper | 556 locations | 200/20 Mbps |
Some addresses are filed under both rows, which is why they add up to more than the 1,241 locations Kinetic files here. On its Glen Rose page Kinetic markets five fiber tiers, Fiber 100 Mbps through Fiber Max 2 Gig, with no annual contracts and no data caps (checked Sep 24, 2026); those tiers apply to the fiber row only.
