MIDDLETOWN, R.I., Nov. 1, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Towerstream TWER, a leading 4G and Wi-Fi/Small Cell Network provider, today announced that it is waiving its fee for its Rapid Install solution to businesses in Manhattan who were affected by Hurricane Sandy.  

Due to the design of Towerstream's wireless broadband network, the company offers its coverage through the air and not in the ground. Therefore, it is not affected by the flooding issues currently affecting many city businesses. Those in need of reliable broadband can sign up for Towerstream's service and be up and running in the next few days. 

"Because we are not reliant on wires in the ground, our network has been mainly unaffected by Hurricane Sandy," stated Matt Tooker, Vice President of Sales.
