 ====Phone service and internet====
+Phone and internet service are provided by [[List_of_companies_by_industry_in_Burgundie#Service|Great Seas BurgunMobile, Extron Burgundie Mobile, and National Wireless Services]], which have 48, 73, and 37 towers respectively across the island. 100% of the islands and their population are covered by at least one of the services, National Wireless Services covering the less densely populated and therefore less profitable areas. Copperwire and fiberoptic phone still exists, one or both are required for all municipal and emergency response connections, and people along the route are allowed to buy in, but during emergencies their calls are de-prioritized in favor of emergency response calls, which is the same with mobile service on the island. There is an undersea cable from Gicupicu to the [[Krasoa Islands]] and one from Ile Melite to [[Lucrecia]].
+Highspeed internet service is provided by [[List_of_companies_by_industry_in_Burgundie#Service|Great Seas BurgunMobile, and Extron Burgundie Mobile]]. Residential internet speeds average 2-3 gigabits while commercial speeds are typically higher in the 3-4 gigabit range.
+There are also two [[Global Maritime Distress and Safety System]] repeaters and a beacon on the islands.
