Ziply Fiber brings Oregon’s fastest internet speeds to Riddle, giving residents access to 5-gig, 2-gig, and Gig-speed services

Riddle residents can now have the reliability of fiber for as little as $20/month

Kirkland, Wash. (February 28, 2023) Ziply® Fiber today announced that its ultra-high-speed, 100-percent fiber-optic network is now ready for service in Riddle, Oregon. Today’s launch means more than 200 homes and businesses now have access to Ziply’s popular “Gig-speed” service as well as its industry leading 5-gig and 2-gig residential services.

When network construction is complete, more than 400 homes and businesses will have access to Ziply Fiber’s fiber-optic network. The availability of multi-gig services with this launch not only makes Ziply Fiber the fastest internet provider in Riddle, but it also makes Riddle one of the fastest cities in the nation for household internet speeds, on par with, if not faster than, most major metropolitan areas.

“Ziply Fiber is proud to bring the people and businesses of Riddle the kind of internet service they deserve – internet that is the fastest and most dependable in the Northwest,” said Harold Zeitz, CEO of Ziply Fiber. “Every day, our team continues to work hard towards our goal of providing cities and towns across our region – regardless of their size – access to a fast, reliable network that can handle our customers’ needs in today’s highly connected world.”

The Many Benefits and Affordability of Fiber

Fiber internet, unlike other options like cable or satellite, provides the bandwidth and capacity to keep your entire family streaming without interruption, provides symmetrical upload and download speeds to easily power video conferencing and online gaming, and was built with the reliability to last residents and businesses for decades.

Ziply Fiber offers many different service options for residents, including:

  • FREE or reduced cost monthly internet service for qualified people as part of the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), a benefit program from the FCC. To learn more about ACP, please visit ziplyfiber.com/community-discount-programs.
  • The Fiber 50/50 plan, which at $20/month provides all the reliability of fiber at an affordable price with no annual contract requirement
  • Ziply Fiber’s most popular Gig-speed plan
  • The company’s ultra-fast, high-capacity 2-gig or 5-gig connections
