Bringing you the best, fastest network in Oregon

Oregon faces challenges in deploying fiber internet due to its diverse geography and population distribution. While cities like Portland and Eugene have significant fiber coverage, many rural and remote areas remain underserved.

The state's aging utility poles, particularly in older communities like those in the Willamette Valley, often need upgrades before they can support fiber cables. Many rural Oregon communities still rely on legacy copper networks, requiring complete infrastructure overhauls to support fiber.

Oregon's terrain can creates obstacles for fiber deployment. The Coast Range and Cascade Mountains require specialized construction techniques and materials that can withstand extreme weather conditions. Dense forests in areas like the Tillamook State Forest complicate both aerial and underground fiber installation.

The Portland metro area and Willamette Valley corridor have higher population densities that make fiber deployment more cost-effective. In contrast, Eastern Oregon counties have lower population densities, with often fewer than 2 people per square mile, making it difficult for ISPs to justify the high costs of fiber deployment.
