Ziply Fiber has officially launched our 100% fiber-optic network in Chehalis, Washington, delivering America's fastest home internet speeds, up to 50 Gig. That's not a typo—50 Gig is now a reality right here in Lewis County.
With symmetrical speeds (that means uploads are just as fast as downloads), no data caps and plans starting as low as $20/month, Chehalis residents can now enjoy fiber internet that doesn't slow down, lag or limit you. And we're proud to share that this work helped Ziply Fiber earn the 2024 Broadband Nation Award for excellence in rural fiber deployment.
Why Chehalis needs ultra-fast fiber internet
Chehalis may be a small city of around 7,400 residents, but its internet needs are anything but small. More people are working from home, streaming in 4K and gaming online than ever before. As our lives become more connected, traditional cable internet just isn't keeping up.
In fact, since data usage is increasing, fiber internet isn't just nice to have, it's essential. Unlike cable, which relies on outdated copper lines, Ziply Fiber's all-fiber network is built for the future. With speeds that scale and low latency that makes lag a thing of the past, fiber internet is the upgrade Chehalis has been waiting for.
Ziply Fiber's game-changing network in Chehalis
Our new 100% fiber-optic network has already connected over 900 addresses in Chehalis, with plans to reach approximately 1,400 in total. That's a whole lot of homes and businesses getting a major tech boost.
What makes our network different?
- Symmetrical speeds for seamless video calls, uploads and gaming
- No data caps means you can use as much data as you want
- Latency under 1 millisecond when paired with WiFi 7 routers
As Ziply Fiber CEO Harold Zeitz said, "Our fiber network transforms how Chehalis connects to the world—bringing the power of fast, reliable fiber internet to homes and businesses that need it most."
And yes, when you sign up for a Fiber Gig to 10 Gig plan, you can get a cutting-edge WiFi 7 router to help you make the most of it
Affordable plans for all
We believe world-class fiber internet should be within reach for everyone. That's why we offer flexible, affordable options like:
- Fiber 100/100 Mbps as low as $20/month

- No contracts, no credit checks and no gimmicks
We also support households that qualify for federal discounts through programs like Lifeline and the Enhanced Tribal Benefit, making reliable fiber internet even more accessible for low-income and Tribal families.
What to expect during fiber construction
We're still working to bring fiber internet to approximately 500 more addresses in Chehalis. During this phase, we aim to keep disruptions to a minimum, and we're committed to leaving every area we touch in pre-construction condition.
