Kirkland, Washington (August 31, 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 Aumsville, Oregon. Service is available today to the first 250 addresses of the more than 1,600 currently in construction across the city. Construction to the remaining homes and businesses will continue over the next several weeks.

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construction of this new fiber network is important because across much of the country, many communities still rely on outdated cable or copper infrastructure, which were never designed to handle today’s internet needs and speeds.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 Aumsville have the infrastructure needed to support the increasing demands of today and for many years to come.

“We’re excited to continue expanding Ziply Fiber’s footprint in Oregon by bringing our 100-percent fiber network to Aumsville,” said Harold Zeitz, CEO of Ziply Fiber. “Strong connectivity is increasingly important for communities of every size, and this investment will give the people and businesses of Aumsville access to fast, reliable internet built to handle both today’s needs and tomorrow’s possibilities.”

Many residents may be unfamiliar with specifically what’s included with and available from Ziply Fiber as part of its various plans.

Ziply Fiber believes that everyone should benefit from amazingly fast, game-changing internet, not just people in big cities.

Since June 2020, Ziply Fiber has built and/or is currently building fiber networks in more than 150 new fiber markets in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana, connecting more people and more communities to fast, reliable internet every day.
