Ripple Fiber Launches Ocean Shores' First 100% Fiber Service After $250 Million Buildout

1 articles · Updated · The Daily World · Jun 24

Ocean Shores homes and businesses can now sign up for Ripple Fiber’s live high-speed service, the city’s first 100% fiber internet option.
The launch stems from Ripple Fiber’s $250 million network investment across King County and Grays Harbor counties, aimed at bringing fiber to communities that previously lacked it.
Plans start at $40 a month with speeds up to 8 Gig, plus a free first month, free installation and a 3-year price lock on multi-gig packages.
Federal Way is next in the rollout, with service there expected later this summer as Ripple continues taking pre-orders in upcoming neighborhoods.
City officials say the upgrade could widen remote-work, telecommuting and online-learning options for Ocean Shores residents and small businesses.
