Aereo founder’s next business: Wireless gigabit home Internet

A startup led by the founder of Aereo says it plans to sell wireless Internet service with speeds of 1Gbps in Boston and then other cities.

Project Decibel was founded by Chet Kanojia, the founder and CEO of the ill-fated TV-over-the-Internet startup Aereo. While Aereo was doomed by a copyright battle with television networks, Kanojia is giving it a shot in the home Internet market dominated by cable companies and telcos.

Project Decibel's "Starry" Internet service "will launch its first beta in the Greater Boston area in the summer of 2016," with additional cities being announced later in the year, the company said. Project Decibel is based both in Boston and New York City.
