Kirkland, Washington (October 21, 2024) – Ziply® Fiber, home to America’s Fastest Home Internet, today announced that it has begun construction of new, ultra-high-speed, 100-percent fiber-optic networks in both Homedale and Parma, Idaho, which will serve more than 1,100 homes and businesses across the two cities when construction is complete. The network is available today to more than 350 addresses in Homedale and 100 addresses in Parma, with more than 300 additional addresses coming each city in the coming weeks.
Residential customers in all fiber markets can access speeds ranging from 100 Mbps to 50 Gig. All Ziply Fiber plans offer symmetrical download/upload speeds and have no contracts or data caps. The company’s entry-level Fiber 100 plan exceeds the minimum residential broadband speed required by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the company’s 50 Gig plan is America’s Fastest Home Internet.
Today’s launch means that besides Homedale and Parma now having access to the fastest household internet speeds in the nation, customers at every speed tier can be confident they’re on the best and fastest network available. With household data usage across the U.S. expected to double every year, Ziply Fiber’s advanced network gives customers the great speed and reliable service they need for everything they want to do online today and into the future.
Residents and business owners can check for fiber availability at ziplyfiber.com and sign up to be alerted when service is available at their location. When fiber is shown as available at their address, Ziply’s existing DSL customers can upgrade by calling 1-866-699-4759.
Residential customers can switch to fiber internet for as little as $10 per month during Ziply’s current fall promo period, and receive a $50 bill credit for themselves and any new customer they refer. Details can be found at referafriend.ziplyfiber.com.
