Those who wish to check their address for fiber availability, or who would like to sign-up to be alerted when fiber internet is accessible at their home or business, can register at https://get.ziplyfiber.com/Anacortes.

Ziply Fiber is supporting local communities like Anacortes to help improve internet connectivity to be on par with larger metropolitan areas throughout the nation. Residents and businesses will benefit from the significant upgrade that no data cap, gig-speed fiber internet provides when uploading and downloading content.

The capacity fiber affords customers is critical in today’s online world to eliminate the hassles of slow and interrupted service such as streaming lag or dropped web conferences, and the frustrations of incurring unnecessary data cap fees charged by other providers because of a poorly architected network.

Anacortes will now have access to the kind of critical connectivity that people need no matter where they live,” said Harold Zeitz, CEO of Ziply Fiber. “We look forward to working with the City of Anacortes to maximize the number of homes and businesses to which fiber will be built so that as many people as possible can have access to this cutting-edge technology.”
