Kirkland, Washington (March 2, 2026)—America's Fastest Home Internet provider, Ziply^® Fiber, announced today that its new, ultra-high-speed, 100-percent fiber-optic network is ready for service in Aberdeen, Idaho. Service is available today at nearly 800 homes and businesses across the city.

Why it Matters

The construction of this new fiber network is important because across much of the country, many communities still rely on outdated cable or copper infrastructure, which were never designed to handle today's internet needs and speeds. With its true end-to-end fiber network, Ziply Fiber is ensuring cities like Aberdeen have the infrastructure needed to support the increasing demands of today and for many years to come.

"Ziply Fiber is proud to bring our 100-percent fiber network to Aberdeen, delivering the fast, reliable connectivity that local households and businesses need to thrive," said Harold Zeitz, CEO of Ziply Fiber. "This investment is about more than internet speed. It's about building lasting infrastructure that fuels economic growth, supports innovation and ensures the Aberdeen community is connected for generations to come."
